Due to the failure of the previous contest, I've been thinking of a simple yet fun contest we could do where everyone on the site could participate. After reading January's Nintendo Power, I got the perfect idea.

Let's hold the first NA Awards 2011 contest. The rules will be simple and once we get things underway you may actually learn a thing or two about another member's personal favorite game. This is also a great chance to discuss that game amongst everyone, and there's no time limit so members can get to the topics when they have the chance.

Rules:
-Try to nominate new games only from this generation (PC, 360, Wii, PS3, DS, PSP)
-Can Nominate as many games as you want.
-Can Nominate the same game as much as you want.

Prizes:
-Best Game will be featured in it’s own banner/theme for the site.

If anyone has any better Rules/Prizes idea please share! Anything to make it more enjoyable. Here are the categories.

Is BioShock in best shooters?...I'm lazy and can't check.
I guess the contest is fine, it'd be more contest-y with more users, but details aren't important!
How is Vanquish? It had one hell of a display at TGS.

Vanquish is good, it's a pretty unique 3rd person shooter. I can't really get into new FPS so this game is more up my alley. It's also developed by Platinum games which is a plus.

Bioshock has not yet been nominated for Best Shooter. Do you want to nominate the first one?

Yes, sorry it's been a while since I made any new threads on it. Work has been rough on me lately but I'll continue the contest this week! Sorry for the delay... Dissidia Duodecim has been a big reason too. :sweatdrop:
