Madden NFL 10 by EA Sports
NHL 10 by EA Sports
Fight Night Round 4 by EA Sports



And the winner is....(opens invisible envelope)



























NHL 10 by EA Sports!

Seems like some of you have a bit of Canadian in you. NHL 10 is a fantastic game though, so don't get me wrong. Innovative gameplay, great graphics, AWESOME fight system, and a lasting appeal make NHL 10 your pick for Best Sports Game.

Sorry for the long stall, had to clean my room and the guest room. Oh, anything with "Host's Pick" written by it means that the winner was a nomination of my own.


Best RPG nominees
Dragon Age: Origins by BioWare
Pokemon Platinum by Game Freak
Star Ocean: The Last Hope by tri-Ace
Dissidia Final Fantasy by Square Enix



And the winner is....













































Dragon Age: Origins by BioWare! (Host's Pick!)

BioWare does it again with a story-driven role-playing game that takes us into the era of dragons and engages us in a dark-fantasy story fueled by violence and romance (aka sex), the two things that gamers enjoy most in any type of RPG. If you haven't played Dragon Age: Origins, then we suggest that you pick it up as soon as you can, because as you can see, the people of Kingdom-Gaming love this game!

Tekken 6 by Namco Bandai
Dissidia Final Fantasy by Square Enix

Dissidia: Final Fantasy by Square Enix!

[Crimson Jazz]

Best Action/Adventure Game nominees
Assassin's Creed II by Ubisoft Montreal
Batman: Arkham Asylum by Rocksteady Studios
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks by Nintendo EAD
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves by Naughty Dog



And the winner is...

























































Batman: Arkham Asylum by Rocksteady Studios! (Host's Pick)

With robust controls, an awesome story, challenging riddles (thanks, Riddler), and amazing voice acting (Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill ftw), Batman: Arkham Asylum is 2009's best Action/Adventure game and is definitely the greatest comic book video game of all time. Find me someone who disagrees with that statement >_>.

[Crimson Jazz]

Best Music Game nominees:
DJ Hero by FreeStyleGames
Guitar Hero 5 by Neversoft
The Beetles: Rock Band by Harmonix
Band Hero by Neversoft



And the winner is...



















































DJ Hero by FreeStlyeGames! (Host's Pick!)

Robot Rock vs. We Will Rock You. Go listen to that song. Like...right now. DJ Hero is a very awesome game, and was definitely 2009's surprise hit. Though plagued by unexpectedly low sales, DJ Hero was still the highest-grossing intellectual property of 2009, and we are confident a sequel is in the works.

[Crimson Jazz]

Best Strategy Game nominees
Halo Wars by Ensemble Studios
Empire: Total War by The Creative Assembly
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II by Relic Entertainment


And the winner is...

















































Halo Wars by Ensemble Studios! (Host's Pick!)

Amazing voice work, some of the best RTS gameplay around, an engaging story with lovable characters, and an amazing soundtrack make Halo Wars the best strategy of 2009 and perhaps the greatest console-RTS of all time.

[Crimson Jazz]

Best Shooter nominees
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 by Infinity Ward
Left 4 Dead 2 by Valve
Halo 3: ODST by Bungie
Killzone 2 by Guerrilla Games
Resident Evil 5 by Capcom


And the winner is....








































Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 by Infinity Ward! (Host's Pick)

Did anyone REALLY expect anything else to win? The biggest launch title in the history of video gaming deserve AT LEAST one award. It's honestly one of the greatest shooters ever made. An amazing story, the most insane multiplayer and a Hans Zimmer soundtrack make Modern Warfare 2 a must own for anyone with and Xbox 360 or PS3.

Best PSP Game nominees
Dissidia Final Fantasy by Square Enix
Resistance: Retribution by Sony Bend
Rock Band Unplugged by Harmonix & Backbone Entertainment


And the winner is...














































































Dissidia: Final Fantasy by Square Enix! (Host's Pick!)

Does this make me an FF nerd too?

[Crimson Jazz]

Best DS Game nominees
Pokemon Platinum by Game Freak
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks by Nintendo EAD
Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box by Level-5
Scribblenauts by 5th Cell
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars by Rockstar Leeds & Rockstar North
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story by AlphaDream


And the winner is...























































The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks! (Host's Pick!)

Although the train traveling is a bit repetitive, there is really nothing anyone can say that would make a Legend of Zelda game seem failish. You voted for it, so obviously this game is great and is definitely a must own for those that enjoy action-adventure games and Zelda games.

[Crimson Jazz]

Best Wii Game nominees:
New Super Mario Bros. Wii by Nintendo EAD
Dead Space: Extraction by Visceral Games
MadWorld by Platinum Games
Metroid Prime: Trilogy by Retro Studios
Wii Sports Resort by Nintendo EAD


And the winner, by a landslide, is...




















































New Super Mario Bros. Wii! (Host's Pick!)

When a game wins by a landslide (only one other person voted for another pick), that must mean that the game is amazing. New Super Mario Bros. Wii will go down in history as perhaps the best 4-player co-op game on the Wii, and one of the Wii's greatest.

[Crimson Jazz]

Best PS3 Game nominees:
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves by Naughty Dog
Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time by Insomniac Games
God of War Collection by SCE Studios Santa Monica & Bluepoint Games
inFamous by Sucker Punch Productions


And the winner is...


























































Uncharted 2: Among Thieves! (Host's Pick!)

Although inFAMOUS came in close second, fans apparently love Uncharted 2: Among Thieves more. And I can see why. Uncharted 2 is a landmark game with innovative gameplay and amazing voice acting, Anything else winning this award would be shameful on the fans' part.

[Crimson Jazz]

Best Xbox 360 nominees:
Halo 3: ODST by Bungie
Forza Motorsport 3 by Turn 10 Studios
Halo Wars by Ensemble Studios
Left 4 Dead 2 by Valve


And the winner is...














































Halo 3: ODST by Bungie! (Host's Pick!)

A compelling story, beautiful graphics, excellent soundtrack, a large city worth exploring, and hilarious characters make Halo 3: ODST the best Xbox 360 game of 2009. Firefight mode is also fun as hell. The Vidmaster achievements will also keep you playing this game for hours.

[Crimson Jazz]

Most Overrated Game nominees:
Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days BY Square Enix
Killzone 2 by Guerrilla Games
Resident Evil 5 by Capcom


And the winner is...

































































Resident Evil 5

Resident Evil 5 is one of the most disappointing sequels that one person could perhaps ever play, especially after the godliness that was Resident Evil 4. While we are not saying the game is horrible, RE5 was plagued by bad partner A.I. and difficult controls. But please, don't let us stop you from buying this game.

[Crimson Jazz]

Worst Game of the Year nominees:
Saw: The Video Game by Zombie Studios
Major League Baseball 2K9 by 2K Sports
The Last Remnant by Square Enix
Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust by Team 17


And the winner is...



















































Leisure Suit Larry: Bost Office Bust

This is just an insult to adventure gamers everywhere. An explanation of why this game is horrible isn't even needed...

[Crimson Jazz]

Publisher of the Year nominees
Eidos Interative (Batman: Arkham Asylum)
Ubisoft (Assassin's Creed II)
EA Sports (Nearly every sports game released in 2009)
Sony Computer Entertainment (Uncharted 2, Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time)



And the winner is...



































































Sony Computer Entertainment!

It published some of the year's best reviewed games was responsible for some of the funniest advertising commercials ever. I can't be mad at you voters for choosing SCE as Publisher of the Year.
