TweetWe’ve got the nominations for this year’s GAME British Academy Video Awards. When I saw “British Academy” I do actually mean the BAFTAs. They’ve been giving out awards to video games since 2005 – I guess the name “video game” kinda proves they’ve been doing it for a while.
Last year Super Mario Galaxy and Call of Duty 4 did well last year.
Here’s the GAME British Academy Video Games Awards 2010 list. Did in and enjoy.
