<A href="http://www.gamespy.com/">GameSpy</a> has posted their <A href="http://www.gamespy.com/goty2003/pc/index21.shtml">Special Awards</a> thingy in their game of the year stuff. Here's one for <A href="http://www.greyhawkgame.com">Temple of Elemental Evil</a>:

<blockquote><b>Old School RPG Award - Temple of Elemental Evil</b>
<br>
No game brought back memories of the old pen-and-paper Dungeons & Dragons days the way Temple of Elemental Evil did. The Troika team is made up of old-school guys who still get together and play using the new 3.5 rules set. Unfortunately, the game had some bugs (many of which have since been patched), exacerbated by Atari's desire to remove children from the game, which broke a few quests. But the bottom line is the game was a lot of fun and really brought back the good old days of playing the famous Greyhawk module by Gary Gygax. Thanks for the memories</blockquote>

Too bad it brings out the bad stuff of old school rpgs. Good translation of dnd rules is not enough to make aworthwhile game, imo.
