This year we point to the the EA_spouse blog, the Driv3r review scandal, Sony's hardware missteps, and seven other less than impressive moments from the past year."

    How about the Steam update from two days ago that disabled logins from Linux/Cedega users?

    Some of the best games I've ever played this year, like Katamari Damacy, were made on a small budget with very few developers. In fact, with the notable exception of Yu Suzuki's Shenmue, most big budget games have left me extremely cold.

    Metroid Prime 1 & 2 proved that console shooters *work* (this coming from a PC gamer since Wolfenstein and Blake Stone 3D ;) ), but Deus Ex 2 is an atrocity. If he let Retro handle Deus Ex 3, I'm sure it would be *much* better.
