To add further support to how lifelike and awesome Alyx is (possible spoiler warning):




When I first played Episode 1, I found her hug most heartwarming, and when the Stalker train crashed, I immediately ran over to help her without thinking about it. I don't remember the last time I felt so concerned for a character's wellbeing...well, apart from Episode 2Image IPB.

Both developers make great games, and I'd have been happy for either of them to win. But I think I've been a Valve fan longer than I have a BioWare fan.

I'd be raging if BioWare lost the showdown to, say, Zynga. I can't believe Zynga made it that far, to be honest, but whatever. Some clear vote-buying there. On the other hand, at least Valve is a worthy opponent.

I love both devs. In fact, the two games I've spent most time with in the past year have been Team Fortress 2 and Mass Effect 2.



Oh, and Team Fortress 2 is completely different from Team Fortress classic. So much so that there's a small core of TFC gamers who refuse to move over to TF2, which has a completely different art style too.

TBH I like BioWares games more but it was the right thing Valve won this. BW deserves some form of punishment for the crap pay to play DLC they released currently (ME2 horse armor + DA:O holiday fluff). They start to sell us worthless stuff that did not cost them anything to make and that more than anything else shows what their love for the fans is.

valve is ok in my opinion, but nowhere near as good as bioware. bioware should have won this one.

Valve is going to win. The Escapist's community is skewed very heavily towards anything Half-Life/Valve related, so in every single one of these tournys if Half-Life or Valve are on the polls they always win.

Of course they kinda deserve to because they are an awesome company/game, but yeah if anyones familiar with the Escapist they know Valve/Half-Life seem to win every community decided poll on there.

Edit: Although it would be nice to seem myself get proven wrong and have Bioware win!


So I called this on page 2. Do I win a prize or something?
