PGC E3 2006 Awards

Best Action Game

by Michael Cole - May 22, 2006, 6:42 pm EDT

The PGC staff picks its favorites from the year's biggest funfest!

This award goes to our favorite grab-and-go game, regardless of Nintendo platform.

PGC's E3 Awards 2006!

Unanimous Winner: Super Mario Galaxy

Michael Cole: Nintendo's well-paced Mario demo was packed with bosses, Bullet Bills, crazy gravity and more. It doesn't reinvent Mario, but its setting certainly felt fresh and authentically Mario.

Evan Burchfield: Super Mario Galaxy's innovation lies in its game design, not its play control. Once I realized that it controlled a lot like any other 3-D Mario game, I was able to have great fun with its new concept and structure.

Mike Gamin: Mario with a mouse could definitely use some polish, but it looks great and using different gravitational fields to propel yourself is a great addition to the series.
