I hope that Axiom: Overdrive gets to be a finalist (at least)! If Wik did (wonderful game), then Axiom can too!2007-11-05 23:00:55 - BK
Axiom: Overdrive...what kind of game is it? If it's anything like Ricochet Infinity, it deserves an award...I am sure Reflexive has done their job....they always do.
