A game review website that somewhat mirrors our own outlook here at the Codex, aptly named "<a href=http://www.videogamessuck.com>Video Games Suck</a>", has published their <a href=http://www.videogamessuck.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=133&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0>2004 Game of the Year Awards</a>, with the Role Playing Game of the Year Award given to <a href=http://www.blizzard.com>Blizzard's</a> <a href=http://www.worldofwarcraft.com>World of Warcraft</a> with a small mention of <a href=http://www.troika.com>Troika's</a> own RPG, Bloodlines which was apparently also in the running for the award.

<blockquote><b>Role-Playing Game of the Year</b>

Worlds of Warcraft

Most of the rpgs that came out this year have been incredible hunks of shit *COUGH* EVERQUEST 2 *COUGH* Also i know you have to pay a monthly fee which sucks a dick off a dirty camel but its just so good. Vampire Bloodlines could have been good if it wasnt an ugly ass bug ridden piece of shit. This game on the other hand kicks the ass of all the other rpgs and then shits on the fucking box and ships it back to the developer. </blockquote>

Pwned. It's too bad I disagree, because MMORPGs aren't really RPGs.

Video Games Suck sucks because of a number of reasons. I don't want to name those at the moment however. That part about the camel scared me. It's obvious the writer is a highly talented and educated journalist who might just be a tad better than myself and everyone else. Only real übermensch's writes reviews using the camel's sexual behaviour which I'm sure he documented quite nicely during some vacation, I guess?

This guy obviously takes his reviewing seriously; look at all those expletatives. The mark of a truely analytical mind.

I havent played bloodlines, but is it really ugly? Personally I think WoW is ugly as sin. Uses graphics that're severely dated and, frankly, I think guild wars' graphics and gameplay actually surpass WoW, but I digress. It is wrong to compare a CRPG with an MMORPG since they're vastly different in what they try to achieve.

Bloodlines has many flaws, but it is not ugly. Although the cutscenes are below standard, the in game graphics are very good. Especially the buildings, both interior and exterior, have been designed with great attention to detail, and some are frankly beautiful to behold :)

The wow engine may be graphicly outdated, by its artists more that make up for it. The scenery is the best I'v ever seen. And BL does look cheap.

"Oh maybe that guy on the caltrops forum who seems to bitch about everything I write and acts like he has a superior intellect because he cant fucking figure out nothing on this site is to be taken seriously."

I know some will disagree, but even comedy needs intelligence and VGS doesn't have the slightest competence. For great funny bashings of all the things you like; SomethingAwful.com
