Half-Life 2 Sweeps Bafta Games Awards

Posted by Zonk on from the those-wacky-british dept.

Ford Prefect writes "The British Academy of Film and Television Arts awards, or Baftas, are frequently considered Britain's equivalent of the Oscars. The winners of the second annual games awards were announced last night, and according to the BBC Half-Life 2 won six awards, including best game and best online game. No Katamari Damacy mentioned, Burnout 3 won three awards, and some plucky little upstart called 'Halo 2' won the prize for best Xbox game."

    Are you shitting me? HL2 doesn't have anything going for it at the moment besides CS:S, and that's a carbon copy of the original.

    It astounds me that HL2 was considered by ANYONE to be the best online game, much less a majority of game developers.
