As participants in a free market economy, we see the principals of supply and demand determining worth everyday. It’s a demonstrable fact that scarcity creates significance, while abundance reduces value. It’s also a fact that big words and discussions of economics make for boring articles on a gaming websites. So we’ll put it this way instead – some of our competitors throw around so many Game of the Year awards every December and January, that it makes them about as impressive as the Student of the Month sticker you were awarded that your Mom still proudly displays on her bumper.
But the first awards handed out by the discriminating journalists and super heroes of a website that itself has received several honors ought to mean something, right? Well we think so, anyhow.
What follows are the results of hundreds of hours of exhaustive research, endless meetings, calloused thumbs, and the careful, collective analysis of all that we saw this year. We’ve broken it all down into a few select categories we know you’ll find interesting. Sure, we have got the conventional classifications like “Best Graphics” or “Best Shooter”, but what was Mr. Cynic's favorite game this year and who won “Worst Localization” or will take home our “Barrels & Crates” award? For that matter, which of this articles readers will win our Best of 2007 Contest.
You will have to read on to find out…
