Metroid Prime 2 probably didn' t make it out in time for these nominations, and neither will Gran Turismo 4, another game guaranteed to be deserving of some. That' s a MAJOR problem with this list, IMO. Since when can we have an annual game awards when you don' t let the year FINISH before making the nominations?
