It´s December...What´s your game of the year?

Toper · Post by **Toper** » Mon Dec 01, 2003 6:17 pm

As far as sports titles go, for me it´s a tie:
 
 NCAA Football 2004 (This sports game is at the top of the class when it comes to excelling in single player, multiplayer, and online (for PS2) game modes).
 
 Winning Eleven 7 (Just when you thought that WE6 was gaming perfection, Konami makes it it´s biyatch...and has EA going back to the drawing board).

NCAA Football 2004. Hands down for me.
 Very deep ,great gameplay ,and never gets boring.

Winning Eleven 6:I. Can´t play 7 yet, or I´m sure that would be it.
 
 College Hoops is looking like a strong runner-up at this point, but I´ve only had it a few days.

ID 2004...no hoops game can come even close to it.
 
 NCAA 2004 is the runner up.

I´ve gotta go with ESPN College Hoops with ESPN Football a close second.

RiverRat · Post by **RiverRat** » Mon Dec 01, 2003 7:14 pm

I´m going with NCAA Football 2004.
 
 College Hoops and WE6:I slug it out for silver and bronze (slight edge to WE6:I).

Tiger Woods 2004 (PC). A little thin in graphics where object rendering distance is concerned, but infinitely playable. [ This message was edited by: J_Cauthen on 01-12-2003 15:32 ]

Winning Eleven Six International as far as sports go... for non-sports, I´d have to go with Freedom Fighters, which I found totally addicting. It somehow brought me full circle to my days in elementary school, looking out the window and wondering if the Soviets were going to parachute onto the field, just like in Red Dawn.
 
 Wolverines!!!

PGR 2
 NCAA 2004
 Links 2004

NCAA 2004, which is so good that I don´t even have a runner up.

ESPN Football - the most fun I´ve ever had with a football game.

Spooky · Post by **Spooky** » Mon Dec 01, 2003 10:12 pm

Geez, this is a tough one for me as I can´t think of a game that has TOTALLY blown me away this year. I have yet to keep a game longer than a couple of months (except for GR which I then traded in for GR:IT).
 
 As of right now, my top game might be Rainbow Six 3 as I have found that it has had the most playing time out of all this latest batch of great LIVE games. I just love the options of playing the different Co-Op type games with 1 to 3 other people. It is nice to call up a friend late at night and run through some missions.

bkrich83 · Post by **bkrich83** » Mon Dec 01, 2003 10:25 pm

ESPN Football, NCAA 2004, and ESPN College Hoops, in no particular order.

seanmac · Post by **seanmac** » Mon Dec 01, 2003 11:28 pm

ESPN Football, with KOTOR coming in second.
 
 Best football game this year, which is really saying something considering how strong NCAA and Madden were. Just a few fixes away from being the best sports game ever made.

GROGtheNailer · Post by **GROGtheNailer** » Mon Dec 01, 2003 11:28 pm

Hmmm
 
 Call Of Duty (PC)
 
 Rainbow Six (PC & Xbox)
 
 You know, nothing in the way of Sports games really captured my attention, the football games were decent for sure but nothing else stood out for me.

TheMightyPuck · Post by **TheMightyPuck** » Mon Dec 01, 2003 11:44 pm

I gotta give KOTOR credit as I usually hate games like this--I started stuttering around girls and getting pimples after playing Baldurs Gate of Utter Boredom for about two miserable hours (cleared up after I played some pool, got into a barfight and banged some nasty skanky stripper chick). I´m pretty much addicted to the damn game. I guess the franchise helps.
 WE6-I is my sports game of the year.

Leebo33 · Post by **Leebo33** » Tue Dec 02, 2003 12:44 am

Sports: Winning Eleven 6:I, but Inside Drive 2004 might slip in late as it offers the total package along with XBL support.
 
 Non-sports: The game I played and enjoyed the most in 2003 was Halo since I didn´t get an Xbox until late 2002. My game of the year for a game released in 2003 is probably Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker.

Boom:
 
 Care to elaborate why PGR 2 is overhyped, other than that you don´t like it?
 
 Curious ...
