Roderick Posted December 28, 2007 It's an adventure game with lots of puzzles, but the bracket was clearly meant for 'casual' parlour games, not any full-blown adventure. As it stands, it's the odd one out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted December 28, 2007 Oh for fuck's sake, and now they put Mario Galaxy in the same bracket as Assassin's Creed and God of War? I hate it that they lump everything, whether it's platformer, freeroaming kill-em-up or hack 'n slash buttonbasher, into something as impossibly wide as 'action-adventure'. Action-adventure means just about half of every game that comes out and is severely flawed as a genre on its own because it's just too stretched-out and general a definition. What's wrong with the old genre definitions? At least there you had a sense of the games actually being in the same category Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scrobbs Posted December 31, 2007 One of the few really good third-party games on the Wii, Zack & Wiki, got put into the 'puzzle and parlor games' bracket in the Gametrailers game awards for 2007. Jesus I didn't know where else to put this, and a new topic would have been excessive. Is it out yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nappi Posted December 31, 2007 Is it out yet? Yes, in Japan and US. But not in Europe... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
