Hehe.

I'm surprised really that Prey hasn't even gotten Best Shooter from anywhere. I mean, really -- is Half-Life 2: Ep One really better than Prey?????? :o

I should get Prey and find out....

BTW, what else came out for FPS/TPS/Shooters/Action Games this year on the PC besides Prey and Half-Life 2: Ep One? There was Sin: Ep One, but there has to be others!

Hitman: Blood Money was very good -- best Hitman game since Hitman: SA.

Hmmmm....whatelse came out....?

Honestly, though...HL2:EP1 wasn't that hot to deserve that award. It was more heavily scripted, linear, HL2 levels.
