The Results of the 2007 Gaming Awards
The polls are closed, and the winners of our 2007 Gaming Awards were determined by the combined votes from Chronicles and ProGamerForums.
The Best Online Game of 2007 is.......Tower Defense! -The game went virtually unrivaled in the votes. Do a Google search for Tower Defense, and a person will find several results. The Best MMORPG Game of 2007 is......World of Warcraft! -Apparently, South Park didn't do a parody of this game for nothing, because it easily won the category with seven votes. The Nintendo Wii Game of 2007 is......Super Mario Galaxy! -Mario is still the king of Nintendo franchises even after all these years. The game received a combined vote tally of 7, squashing the competition like the silly goombas (or would that be "goombi"?) that they are. The Playstation 3 Game of 2007 is......Uncharted: Drake's Fortune! -Naughty Dog, the company behind the winner, would be pleased to see our validation for its risky venture after the industry doubts expressed over the departure of cartoon paramount game designing like seen in Naughty Dog's Crash and Jak franchises. The Playstation 2 Game of 2007 is......God of War 2! -Video games are not just for kids, and this game proves it. There is enough blood, violence, monsters and, yes, sex in the game to make even the most demented mind appeased. Oh, and it doesn't hurt that it actually is a fantastic game. Xbox360 Game of 2007 is......Halo 3! -This result probably won't surprise most people who have been following the hype (or buzz) of its release and its staggering opening week sales. The game even had some people sold on the idea of repurchasing their Xbox360s to get the Halo 3 version. PC Game of 2007 is......Crysis! -It beat out Bioshock by a single vote. Now, that sounds like all out war. Nintendo DS Game of 2007 is......The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass! -There are two types of people in the world: Final Fantasy and Zelda die hards. The Zelda franchise has enjoyed unquestionable success with the Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Gamecube, Nintendo Wii, and, of course, the Nintendo DS chapters. Whether the franchise has gone for more mature graphics or the anime route, Zelda has enjoyed an immense fan base. Sony PSP Game of 2007 is......Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron! -The success of this game will surely result in digitally remastered versions featuring more Imperial Walkers in the background. The Biggest Gaming News of 2007 was......the Playstation 3 price drop! -The console buyers must be feeling much pain last year because the news of Nintendo Wii shortages lost by a single vote. The question is whether or not the price drop will ultimately save the system. The Best Gaming Console of 2007 is......A TIE! The PC gamers demanded to be heard. Both the Nintendo Wii and "Forget consoles ---PC all the way!" split the vote. They are polar opposite when one thinks about; particularly compared to the other consoles. A hearty "Thank You!" must be given to everyone willing to nominate, vote, and/or take part in making these awards happen. The second year of the Chronicles/ProGamerForums Gaming Awards had gone far more smoothly and with a greater amount of attendance. Feel free to debate the results in this thread!
