For those who read CGW, you've probably seen this.

Half-life 2 didn't do too hot in CGW. The only rewards it recieved was "best music" and "best NPC (dog)." It was nominated for Game of the Year and Single Player FPS of the Year, but won neither.

Also, Steam won the presigious "Coaster of the Year" for it's "migraine delivering" capabilities.
 
WoW got Game of the Year
Painkiller got Single Player FPS of the Year
 
Well they certianly have different taste

"Different" taste indeed.
They could have at least chosen Farcry. :p
Thats what i was thinking
 
Far Cry wasn't even nominated. It was between Half-life 2, Doom 3, and Painkiller.
 
Painkiller? :O Oh my God, what happened to those guys at CGW? Skull fracture or brain damage?
 
I just got the issue in the mail, and Id have to say im dissapointed in them, its almost as if they delibrateley do it to be diffrent from all the other mags. They knocked a half star off of it for the steam problems in thier earlier review, criticised it for being "linear", etc. I mean, come on, criticise the game, not the installation process. I say CGW gets party pooper of the year award.
 
I would rather see Doom3 or Far Cry get the award than Painkiller... WTF?
 
whaaaaat?! painkiller? and they had doom and halflife in the same group?! if they were going to be different from the rest, they should at least picked doom.....
 
As retaliation, the CGW server is currently being taken down as we speak.
 
Painkiller? Say what? With the choice of HL2, Far Cry, UT2004 they pick... Painkiller?
 
I was a little disappointed until I read Painkiller. :eek:
Then I just laughed. :LOL:
 
Yeah, every single magazine belonging to 1up has gone completely down hill
 
I actually enjoyed painkiller more than farcry, however i wouldn't put it in the same league as Half Life 2.


Cheers,
