Ok, I'll play..

BG 2003: Call of Duty
WG 2003: Moo3

Only new game I have installed in 2003: Starfury (and even then it's the beta build.)

I know it's sad, but time and budget shortages have crippled my gamming purchases.

Cheers!

Call of Duty is a darn good game. Thanks for mentioning it David.

Hmm... do expansions count?

[Atrocities]

Sure they do.

I think Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark came out recently, so that would get my vote for best game of 03.

Worst game is tied for that Civ 3 expansion (because it is part of Civ 3) and MOO3.

I don't have a worst game because I have only played SEIV and EDIE.

So? There are a lot of horrid games that are "playable." And besides, part of the problem with Civ 3 is the evil marketing BS they pulled with it, splitting the game into 3 parts so they could milk more money without adding ANY meaningful features in any of the expansions. Civ 3 + 2 expansions at their best almost equal Civ 2 Gold at its worst, save some really stupid things like removing the hit point/firepower system of Civ 2 that helped tremendously over Civ 1. No comparison at all to Civ 2 ToT.

If expansions/mods count, then... Drum-drum-drum... !

The best 2003 game is the AIC mod for SEIV. At least it is the only game I played the whole year
