I don't see the destinction between 'action' and FPS/TPS ... is this just a way of not deciding between Max Payne, JA and CoD? ;)

For me, I don't play so many genres:
FPS - Jedi Academy
RPG - KotOR
Expansion - NWN Hordes of the Underdark

GotY - KotOR, by quite a stretch.

Overrated Game of the Year:
Call of Duty: this is an excellent game. Good fun, nice graphics, good AI. But it has no plot, nothing new to offer - just a updated MoHAA, IMO. Not saying that's a bad thing, but not GotY material.

I almost think we need to start breaking SP and MP apart for some of these genres.

If that is the case, I should pop in Deus Ex somewhere (NOT Invisible War, which I despise) ... since I just finally played it last March.

Call of Duty is def. Game of the Year material. it is the first game i played that made me feel like i was in the game, its so immersive. more games need to be like it or PC games are never going to break the movie barrier
