Remembering some last year's memorable gaming moments, we saw Epic Games' Gears of War win last year's Game Developers Choice Awards. And, of course, who can forget Shigeru Miyamoto, the big daddy of Nintendo, win the Lifetime Achievement award.
All in all, 2007 was a year to celebrate for the video game industry. This time, the biggest names and titles are lining up as CMP's Game Developers Conference is opening the nominations for the 2008 Game Developers Choice Awards.
Some of the categories included are Best Audio, Best Game Design, Best Technology, Best Visual Arts, Best Writing, Best Innovation, and Game of the Year. Jamil Moledina, executive director of the Game Developers Conference had this to say about the upcoming event:
The Game Developers Choice Awards are built with the same care and editorial integrity as the Game Developers Conference itself, which means that we facilitate true and open peer based recognition of creative talent in games.
Recently, games have become dramatically more integrated into pop culture given their diversity and portability, so this year the Choice Awards is evolving to include the well-deserving makers of the best downloadable and handheld games.
The event will be held at the Esplanade Room in the South Hall of San FranciscoÂ’s Moscone Convention Center this coming February 20. Details of the nominations are detailed on the official website, accessible through the Via link we've provided below.
