What's a games convention without a few awards? Unexciting, that's what.
The Leipziger Messe has announced their 'Best of GC' awards, of which Sony has snagged several. Sony's top-notch first-party development is proven yet again, with LittleBigPlanet, Resistance: Retribution and PlayTV all receiving recognition. Nintendo and Microsoft received no mention, though Electronic Arts was awarded for three of their upcoming titles (one of which is, Mirror's Edge, is leading development on the PS3). The full list of winners is below.
Best PS3 Game: LittleBigPlanet - Sony Computer Entertainment Europe
Best PSP Game: Resistance: Retribution - Sony Computer Entertainment Europe
Best PC Game: Spore - Electronic Arts
Best Xbox 360 Game: Mirror's Edge - Electronic Arts
Best Wii Game: Skate It - Electronic Arts

I found out that there was something at Leipzig about Gears 2! It was a making of type vid, but still it got beaten by Mirrors Edge!

This has to be the dumbest article I've seen on PSU in recent weeks.
As somebody else pointed out no win if it's for Sony platform anyway. If SCEE started developing games for PC as well and had won that category then yes, but as it stands ... Blatberg missed the point completely, go back to school kid. I don't know why awards are given to publishers rather than the developers on these lists. That would be Media Molecule and slimy Ted's army of darkness up for the first two listed here.
PlayTV still wins best hardware despite a raft of technical issues making it unappealing and overpriced. I'm involved in industrial PVR development so I'll be interested to see just how bad the problems are.
