Gazing Back and Looking Ahead in Gaming

To finish up the season of "Best of the Year" pieces we have IGN's Best of 2004, where they take a look at the games across several different categories. At the same time Gamespot is offering a Most Anticipated of 2005 feature, games that their editorial staff are looking forward to for the coming year. From the article: "Though the release slate may lack some of the sizzling franchises that were refreshed just months ago, it's quite clear that there's no lack of promising or exciting games on the horizon."

    Only in the game media could you have 15 people all choose games they are looking forward to and have none of them be the same.

    Also, wasn't Nokia dropping support for the NGage? There were quite a few NGage games listed.

    I know, I kept expecting to see one of the writers be honest for a moment, and admit it ...

    "I'm looking forward to because, well, it's made by EA - and they always pay us well, if we give their games a good review. Should be a windfall!"
