Metroid Prime won no awards but did place second for Best Action Game; Super Mario Sunshine did the same for Best Action/Adventure Game. The WaveBird controller picked up Best Console Hardware.

Several third-parties took awards, including Super Monkey Ball 2 for Best Puzzle/Trivia/Parlor Game, and Splinter Cell for Best Action/Adventure Game. Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee was runner-up in Best Fighting Game, and Sega's NFL 2k3 won Best Sports Game over Madden 2003. Hit the link above for the full list of winners.
