Poll: Best game of the year so far...

[CooCoo18]

what do you think is the best game of the year so far?

#1. Baldur's Gate 2: Throne Of Bhaal
#2. Black & White
#3. Max Payne
#4. NHL 2002

Any other year Black & White would be the run away winner... but BG2 TOB is just incredibly difficult/near impossible to surpass.. practically a flawless game that surpassed all imaginable expectations IMHO.

B&W is a very fun and innovative game and is solidly is second.

Max Payne was a great game, and has some innovative elements but overall it can't compare to the totally new style of B&W and Payne was also too short.

NHL2002 is a great game IMHO... but certainly not terribly far advanced upon 2001 and not deserving of an award.
None of the other games mentioned appealed to me much.

Arr, I hate votes like this. I just love all those games, can't say which I love most. BTW, it's Red Faction, not Fraction (4th time I saw someone misspell it today, lol).

Best single player game this year is Max Payne, hands down. Black and White is a close second. As far as multiplayer goes, Tribes2 all the way. I'd like to see some more multiplayer games with pilotable vehicles that actually make a difference in the game.

Of the three I mentioned, I've played Tribes2 the most so far. Its definatly GOTY (so far) in my book.

I guess it really depends on genre..I tihnk Max Payne is best first/third person shooter...

No contest, Max Payne. Arcanum is cool too, finally a different RPG thats not just your typical slow AD&D
