I like how the PS2' s game of the year was a multi format game. Don' t know why but I find that funny. Fable gets some love even though it' s not been out long and Mario Kart does the job for the Gamecube.

Haha, I' m also pleased with Sonic being voted the Sun' s ultimate gaming hero... with Mario and Solid Snake not even making the short list. Go blue spiky one go!

I don’t suppose you got invited to this Adam?
