Non Sports game of the year - Call of Duty 2

Sleeper game of the year - WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2006

Innovation - Shotstick, easily

That's really the only things I differ on. Dissappointment as well, because I don't think EA was that bad, as Tiger Woods is great on the 360. But Live and Madden were so disappointing that I can see it and can't really put a finger on another really disappointing title.

Maybe ESPN MLB2K5, as I was really disappointed in it.

SDVRaw2006 would've been another very good choice for sleeper game. I just picked it up after renting it earlier and have still been playing the hell out of it[when giving the 360 breaks]

Oh and btw...don't listen to everyone, MVP was the best baseball game

The only things I would disagree are for Football (I liked Madden 06 in my time with the PS2 version) and I prefered Half-life 2 on the PC would get my 2005 Non-Sports Game of the Year. I see that NBA 2K6 got alot of awards and even 2k sports got the dev. Though Basketball is where they shine without any Hoops games they would not have that award. Hopefully that "good" from the Bball translates into a good Baseball game on the 360, you know the whole story about that. Anyways I rented NBA 2k6 on PS2 from that expierence it was alright but since I got a 360 It's been nonstop for me, Maybe even considering College Hoops 2k6 when it comes to 360.

I would agree, however, the online difference between Chaos Theory and COD2 is staggering and thats why I would choose SC:CT.

Just for me personally, just can't get into the Splinter Cell games online. They bore me..LOL but as I said, I'm weird.

I could definately see that. It takes getting used to, but it's when you play with people you know (like I used to play with Sully, ZXLT, and Jets). The online co-op was a blast too, I used to play that with my buddy, we actually finished all the co-op missions.

I tried out COD2 online 3 times or so, and I didn't have fun, because I had no idea who I was playing. Only time playing with random people is fun is Halo or Rainbow Six, but only when you have a group of people you in the room as well.

Yeah, I can see that. But I wasn't looking at the online portion for nonsports game, I was looking at the whole package, and the single player mode in COD2 is amazing, especially in 5.1 surround sound. The game has you white knuckles almost the whole way, just an amazing videogame experience for me.

True, I'd take COD2's single player over SC:CT's.

I've never really been into FPS single players, but I finished COD2's very quickly because I couldn't put the game down, LOL.
