Best strategy winner is the only winner that seems completely out of place to me.

Borderlands no 2 for best Rpg is a bit off too but everything else seems in order.

Good show so far, it's great to see some of these games getting widespread recognition on here. As it's a public vote, I don't expect to agree with all of these, life would be boring if we were all the same, and I'm not going to sit here and say anything that won is wrong or shouldn't have won, but in light of this, a console strategy-lite winning best strategy game? What the strawberry float is wrong with you ass-hats?

Also, I forgot to vote.

Probably also due to the fact that there's not really a significantly large group who are heavily into their strategy titles on these boards.

Plants vs Zombies should have won in my opinion but I'm sure any strategy fan who had played the best that 2009 had to offer would disagree. :)

I've heard amazing things about that, but I've also heard that it's some serious business strategy game. :lol:

Isn't it Rebel fm who always poke fun at that line of games? :lol: Not for being gooseberry fool, just strawberry floating crazy deep.

Yeah it's pretty tough in parts, but playing as the British during our glory years is wonderful :shifty:

You don't know how hard I laughed when I saw this.

The Best Audio category is full of gooseberry fool. MW2's soundstage isn't even as good as MW's...let alone the music. I have a hard time thinking Halo:ODST beat Halo 3.

What a joke.

Hans Zimmer's soundtrack for MW2 is great!

I know you insist that MW1 is the better game and all that, but the audio was brilliant. And have you actually listened to the ODST soundtrack?

Who would you have?

I can dig this result. Uncharted 2 is a big technical achievement. And, as has been hinted at in many reviews, put Naughty Dog right up there with the best of 'em.
