Left4Dead is the new counterstrike ... get used to it ;)

Congratulations to everyone who participated and made the mod-community a better place :)
It's nice to see the UDK is getting a few retail-quality games from 'amateur' developers.

Worst game wins?

I take it that the Haunted guys don't visit this site. Or at least they don't anymore. :D

If the award were to be given for most original game, then it would have to go to the Ball, but I think Haunted has more potential as an actual game, that people would keep playing.

I would say prometheus was the most original.

but that's just my opinion. And as you mention, it's not always the most original title that is the most fun to play
