As 2006 winds down, the gaming press begins to look back on the year that was, and tries to determine which games stood out as the best of their class. GameSpy is one of the first of the major media sites to put up their annual Gamers' Choice polls, where any gamer can go and vote for their favorite games of the year across 16 categories (7 of which are reserved for PC Genres). Our game, Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords has been nominated in two events:
- PC Strategy (Non-RTS)
- PC Overall
That's right, we're a contender for the Gamers' Choice PC Game of the Year!
Galactic Civilizations II received a 4.5 star rating and the Editor's Choice award from GameSpy, and has an 87% overall rating on GameRankings.com based on review scores from 49 media outlets, making it one of the best rated PC games of 2006. In the Non-RTS Strategy category we're up against games like DEFCON, Heroes of Might & Magic V and Caesar IV. All very solid titles, but we're confident that the fine, intelligent folks here at GalCiv2.com know which one truly deserves to be crowned king!
Voting is open until December 18th, so get moving and vote! Be sure to tell anyone you know that enjoyed Galactic Civilizations II this year, to head over to GameSpy and vote too!
