That's the opposite of avoiding Montanna.

Also, Okami wasn't on 360. I think.

See Ya George.

Quick Question:

Next year, will the technical achievement award be on PS3 or 360?

Honestly, I think Galaxy might steal away with it. The gravity thing they're doing is very unique.

And MontanaHachet, you must be thrilled Okami is coming to Wii! The paintbrush controls seem ideal for it.

Meh, they didn't even trim the fat or stuff the insides.

Only a buy if there's a definite improvement.

Fair enough, but I'm hoping people buy the thing, as the original sold ridiculously poorly. I think unique games that flop in that way dry up the funding for future 'risky' titles.

Not a surprise since Halo 3 wasn't in for this year...

Nice to see Crackdown get a couple nods.

Good WiiSports got recognized...

And Okami is probably PS2's final hurrah... There will be plenty of stuff on all NextGen platforms next year for PS2 to be officially washed away...

Yeah, that is a hard one to figure. Maybe as it is a sports simulation. I mean, bowling is a sport, but really... Bowling is considered the best part of Wii Sports by many and it could be considered simulation.

currently playing: Desktop Tower Defense (PC), Puzzle Quest (DS), Trauma Center New Blood (Wii), Guitar Hero III (Wii), Ghost Squad (Wii), Actraiser (SNES), Donkey Kong County (SNES), The Legend of Zelda (NES), Kirby's Adventure (NES)

will play next: Paper Mario (N64), Golden Axe II (Sega), NiGHTS (Wii)
