Well Ostro, just look at most of the topics in the SOT forum or better yet, take a looky at this thread: http://www.merqurycity.com/ssx_forum/vi ... php?t=5686
For a lot of SSX fans, SOT was a huge disappointment as it lacked what makes SSX SSX.

Wow, 
out of that selection i would of definitely chose nba 2k6 since it has a lot more replay value with online play and is much funner than SOT 
Congrats for SSX

OT, that can't be serious! Great, now EA has even less reason to fix the damn thing. 
One of supposedly.
What drugs were they taking, and why aren't they sharing?

NBA 2K6 should've won.
Fri Feb 10, 2006 9:29 pm
It was the only EA game in there ...
Fri Feb 10, 2006 10:01 pm
anything other than sot should have won.

How.... the..... hell.... did THAT win. SSX On tour may deserve the worst game award but not the best.
Oh well shows what happens when Tony Hawk isnt in the category

I thought Madden would have been on there. Anyways, those two MLB games(MVP was the best) and OT are horrible nominations
Sat Feb 11, 2006 8:10 pm
yeah, like i said...it must have been a SLOW year in sports.

oh noes! this is terrible......why reinforce terrible game design/polish with an award. All this serves to do is raise the confidence in ppl who shouldn't be confident in what they do....or proud of what they have done.

Hear hear! I seriously wonder if there might have been a "persuasion" involved in it's winning.

On the one hand, I applaud taking chances with established series and the constant re-inventing of the user interface. On the other side of the coin, if in taking chances things don't work out as planned, why celebrate it?
Tricky had a full 3D user interface, SXX3 was all about quickly getting you into the game, and SSX4 is all about taking acid and doodling away. I don't have an issue with that, maybe that is why the game won the award....

That's not fair. There are other sports game that deserves that place more than On Tour.

Wow, so that's what happens when you inhale shoe polish cream. But seriously, there is no way OT is the best sports game of the year. I completely agree with Kamyk. I don't know what the sales numbers are for OT but unless they are catastrophically low, I'm afraid that EA will continue on this path, thinking that this is what we wanted.
