Best story: Planescape: Torment It was surprisingly original.

Best Music: Throne of Bhaal. Inon Zur (composer) is amazing.

Best endgame battle: The modified battles for BG2: Throne of Bhaal. I remember the improved fire giant fight fondly. My uber team were knee deep in the corpses of the Firegiants army, but still they came. I was running out of both defensive and offensive magic. The Army mages were casting and keeping globes of invulnerablity. My fighters were running out of whilrwind attacks. I lost 2 out of my team and had to resurrect them mid fight, forcing them to fight amourless. I still defeated the Army General though.

Best Expansion: Throne of Bhaal, as explained above.

Best quest system: Fallout 2. The way the quests can be completed and cross conflict with each other were excellent. Only working Rep system I've ever seen too.

Most addictive Game: System Shock 2. The speed of the FPS view meant it could be sped through much faster than the isometric view games, increasing replayablity I feel.

Best NPC companion: Minsc (and Boo) Baldurs Gate or Marcus (and his overly excitable Bozar Machine Gun) Fallout 2 or Anyone from PST.

Best Character Development System: Fallout - Traits and perks rule all.

Best Skills: Finesse in Fallout 1/2 How can anyone not love that Critical hit to the eyes!

Best RPG: Planescape Torment

Most buggy and unplayable game ever: Beyond Divinity. I would have said Ultima 9 but I only ever played the fully patched version.

Worst Dialogue: Most Final Fantasy games. Some weird Japanese culture thing, it just doesn't translate no matter what. It's still cool in a weird way.

Worst user interface: (looks over collection and picks) Lands of Lore 3. Can't redefine Mouse means left button is forward and Right Button is action...the oposite to every other game ever!

Worst character upgrading system: Deus Ex 2 Invisible War. Removal of Skills and Fubar augs. Probably shouldnt be classsed as a RPG anyway even though the first is.

Most anticipated new Game: Gothic 3 but it's ages away yet. Fallout 3 if Interplay somehow survive and the rumours are true.
