you have to be *****ing kidding me
Glad they won it, it was certainly amongst the best games I've ever played a great style, story and original gameplay and ideas. I hope their future projects also hit the mark :)
It's nice to see that the writers in the video game industry are finally getting the recognition they deserve.
