2009 GS Wii Forum Game Awards! Results!

Great nominations overall, but I would like to see Prime Trilogy as a best shooter nomination.

ARG. Ireally want to vote for A boy and his Blob but I just can't pick it over NSMBW. I wish there was a puzzle category.

Bit Trip Beat was amazing.

Best Music Game: Beatles Rock Band

I picked this game because if the great production quality and solid set-list. While most rhythm games have a wide assortment of genres to cater to many people, that also guarantees you'll have songs that you despise with every fiber of your being(Guitar Hero setlists are very up and down(Sex Pistols and Sonic Youth can eat **** and die!).:evil: Although you must like the Beatles to some degree, I find it more accessible for everyone to play due to it's strong range of style despite all songs coming from one band.

Playing with other online is easy and the difficulty is friendly but can be somewhat difficult unless you can play Dragonforce on Expert in your sleep(which may turn off some). With downloadable content, cool Beatles sound bites during load times as well as unlockable video content, I've enjoyed Beatles RockBand more than any other "guitar/band" game.

Guitar Hero Metallica all the way!:D

METALLICA ftw!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Were is Metroid Prime trilogy? I know isn't necisarily new but it was still one of the best pieces of software this year.starmetroid

Go Beatles go!

Ghostbusters.

It captures many elements and references in the films and also scenes not from the movies. Smart use of the wii controls too.

Best action game..hmm. I gotta say Muramasa, I loved it

We can suggest categorys right?

Best Puzzle game:

A Boy & His Blob, You, Me, and Cubes, Tetris Party, Boom Blox Bash Party.

Woops. Thought Tetris Party was early 09. I honestly can't think of anything else. Personally I thought a boy & his blob had some very good puzzles with so-so platforming but oh-well.

I'll throw a bone to Muramasa.

Excitebots easily.OreoMilkshake

Yep, I agree.

Excitebots is fantastic, and easily one of the most underrated games of the year.

People need to play F1 2009. It's a semi-realistic arcade racer thatrequires real driving skill. Easily one of the best, if not the best,racing games on the Wii.

Madworld shouldn't be a best 3rd party nominee

Modern Warfare Reflex should be

Great FPS with the best online in any wii shooter

It even scored 1 point higher on gamespot, is easily selling better, is a better package overall, and its got much more AAA than madworld (i think)

For best 3rd party game, I'd suggest:

1. Tiger Woods PGA 10

2. Little King's Story

3. Madworld

4. Modern Warfare Reflex

5. Silent Hill, or Muramasa if it ends up disappointing.

Others: Boom Blox Bash Party, A Boy and his Blob, Dead Space Extraction

Hope this helps!:D

Arc2012

Yes. It should take Conduits spot

It is sad that yes, a port is better than a wii built game guys, but it is the truth

Does Conduit have an AAA review? Reflex has a good amount and a MC average review that is nearly 10 points higher than Conduit

If theres any shooter to get for online or at all on wii other than MPT, it is MWR

For best 3rd party game, I'd suggest:

1. Tiger Woods PGA 10

2. Little King's Story

3. Madworld

TheSmitto

i'm gonna change it a bit with mine

1. Tiger Woods

2. LKS

3. Modern Warfare Reflex

4. Muramasa

5. Boom Blox Bash Party

(if Silent Hill is really good i say it replaces Muramasa)

As far as 3rd party nominees, we can't forget Final Fantasy Crystal Bearers

But it comes out really late

Oh yeah, I guess I was pretty much regarding Christmas as the end of the year.:)

Glad you agree with most of my list. I'm not a huge fan of Madworld either, yet it seemed to be pretty popular.

I went a bit with both of you guys on this one. Changed the nominees to:

Tiger Woods, LKS, CoD:MWR, Madworld, and Boom Blox. With Silent Hill as a replacement for Madworld if indeed it is the case that it is just stellar. All the games on that list are still up for debate though, so don't think this is the final list.

But, just so you guys know what I was thinking, I took off the Conduit because it really seems that CoD has done everything that it was trying to do, but better. It isn't getting the extreme love it or hate it thing that the Conduit was getting either which makes it actually stand a chance.

As far as Muramasa goes, the fact is that it has already lost out to Madworld once. And I know I told someone else that these categories aren't really brackets, but it does seem rather strange to keep Muramasa up there agaist Madworld since it'll probably just lose again. It seems also strange to put it up there instead of Madworld since the Wii forum community has already spoken on its place, which is a respectable 2nd.

I've got another idea, what about a best graphics vote? Here are my nominees:

1. Punch-Out!!

2. Muramasa

3. The Conduit

4. Madworld

5. Final Fantasy Crystal Bearers

It's worth a shot.:D

couldn't really decide between Tiger Woods and PES, but went with PES cos I rightly thought the majority would vote for the Tigger.

I'd say Tiger Woods.

As much fun as Orge Battle sounds :P... I've got to go with Majora's Mask

Someone else voted Ogre Battle!

I'm not alone in this landslide!

HOORAY!

I want to get Ogre Battle, but I'm not sure if more Beatles RockBand content is coming out soon. As for best VC game, I would have to go with Smash Bros.

FFCYAN

That hasn't come out in North America yet.

Seeing how one-sided this vote is, SSB might make it a little less embarrassing.

(For best Virtual Console Game):

Majora's Mask was the only game I've played out of those on my Wii, so that gets my vote.

Majora's Mask for best VC game IMO.

didn't play the rail shooters

But MWR beats TC in all areas

Such a better all around game

let alone the online is far superior and well, it actually gets updates to fix issues that are ruining TC

Isn't MWR also the highest rated of all those this year on gamespot? or is something above it?

darth-pyschosis

none of the shooter candidates offer as much depth as MWR

8-10 hour single player, replayable difficulties, arcade mode (so it is on rails too!)

Endless Online multiplayer with loads of modes and dozens of maps

Perks, and deep online along with a great single player experience, it can't be beat

i only fear the fact that it recently came out will give it short comings in the poll

DSE has a 2 month advantage on it and more users here may have experienced it

if you're into shooters where you can actually move your character, MWR is the choice

if you liked guided experiences, then i guess go for the others
