As with all awards, there need to be some thanks:
Thanks to all the staff for helping with the categories, and special thanks to cgoodno for his help with the nominations.
Thanks to DragonFly for the slick poll integration, and to Sally for the banner/header design. Thanks to Dusty for believing in me. ;)
And of course...
Thank you to all of the members that submitted their nominations and to the even more that voted! Response to the poll was incredible and I hope you had fun.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Alone in the Dark developer Pieces Interactive has been hit with layoffs a month after its release, as per the latest information.
That genuinely, genuinely sucks. The reboot has clear flaws, but it really felt like a solid first step for this team to receive *greater* investment.
Venturing into a post-apocalyptic world, Bandai Namco resurrects the forgotten treasure, Sand Land: will it capture the magic of the Manga?
I enjoyed the demo so I'll be picking this up. The gameplay made me think of Metal Max Xeno so it sold me on it.
Well deserved !
So...The Last of Us did alright
Awesome! Good choices, everyone.
Call of duty didn't deserve the sequel fail. Not when it was up against games like Battlefield 4 and SimCity which both had major problems and terrible launches
Really disappointed Ni No Kuni didn't win Best Art Direction :(
Glad Tearaway did well.
