oh jeez...Best water ever award goes to Halo 3 second hl2. I love hl2's reflections, but the the way they made water halo 3 is crazy. I still play around with it. I generally don't care too much about water in games (especially since to lazy dev's it = instadeath) but its crazy and I luv it. But yeah, real reflections (aswell as the visor) would have made it...better than what it is.

But yeah, I would automatically say Halo 3 deserved GOTY if it had custom game search...Or at least a means of taking advantage of forge...To me, its a brilliant feature that they're not even taking full advantage of. Why do I say this? apart from friends list or a LAN...Well there's really no way of playing yours or other's creations...Which SUCKS

That's what I thought too. Custom Games are probably one of the more fun things to do, but I play theme fairly rarely because you can't do any sort of search like you said. Probably one of the more disappointing things about the game to be honest...

(by the way, is there any way to pause a download? I hit cancel download after it was done 2% and when I restarted the download it started at 0% again. Xbox.com said that you could resume it later, and would only delete the content if you go into the memory to delete the partial download.. it did say playing a game online or turning off the console would pause it, but i just want to know this for reference)
The Bioshock demo doesn't do justice... Rent it.( It doesn't show the "living" environment, its all scripted...sad really)

And there is no Big daddy to fight.


Also... some how... I wasn't Surprised what got Game of the Year... I wonder why !?!? >_>

I stumbled upon a rerun at about midnight last night of this show. It was alright I guess. The envelopes announcing the winners were...fantastic.

PS: The envelopes were women body painted with the winners.
