Best of 2004 - Part 1

So I just realised that all sorts of other blogs were doing end of year round ups a couple of weeks ago. It never made sense to me to do these things until the beginning of the new year, I mean, what if something really cool came out on Dec 31? Anyway, for this reason I figure the 3rd is as good a date as ever to do my own one of these things. I'll do a music one today, and hopefully I'll follow it up with a games one in a day or two.
