First of all, I don't think that the Spongebob Movie was the worst game. I assume that it is pretty bad, but I say the Polar Express turned into a game at Block Buster. For best soundtrack, if you mean an actual published soundtrack, then I have no clue. If you mean the music in general for the game, I'd have to go with Sonic Adventure 2 Battle and F-Zero GX (I have a CD of both that I made myself). I'd also say that the best multiplayer is actually Tales of Symphonia. ToS also gets best RPG in my opinion. I still think that once again, ToS is also best overall game of the year. I would also go with Jet Black as favorite villian (from VJ2, as you know). Basically, here's a list of a few of my opinions:

Worst Game
The Polar Express

Best Soundtrack (if it means music and not actual published soundtrack)
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
F-Zero GX

Best Multiplayer
Tales of Symphonia

Best RPG
Tales of Symphonia

Overall Best Game
Tales of Symphonia

Favorite Villian
Jet Black - Viewtiful Joe 2
Abbysion - Tales of Symphonia (you fight to get ultimate weapons)

That's what I say. Also, when we get enough votes for the categories so that there is one game for each category that is clear, then we need to make a new topic called "Awards of 2004" that shows the results.

Finally, an UNBIASED VG poll. Really, did anyone see the one on Spike TV? It sucked. I hate how everyone assumes that everyone plays the same type of game. There was hardly any Nintendo.

You didn't have to use my ideas, by the way. It's your topic.

I watched 10 minutes of it, and all I aquired was an unquenchable lust for murder. Thanks a lot Spike. Thanks a lot. scream

But SM64 DS wasn't a platformer. It was an adventure game. Platformers tend to be like the older Mario games and the Viewtiful Joe seires.

Platformer has since changed it's meaning. It is now used for games such as Ratchet and Clank, Super Mario 64, and Jak.

The old Mario games and Veiwtiful Joe would be considered sidescrollers more then anything.

I don't think VJ would be a platformer. Platforming is more about precision jumping from..platform to platform, not beating the crap out of things,in the most stylish way ever.
