It's bad knowing that Casual of Duty: MW2 is going to win everything.

Saddened to know that Borderlands didn't get one single nomination.

Arkham Asylum/ Uncharted 2 are my picks to take Best Game. Rocksteady is a UK based developer (Arkham) and Uncharted 2 is just downright delicious.

MW2 certainly up for lot there. Hope FIFA 10 dosen't win anything, its too glitchy and crappy tbh.

AC2 for story - it's quite amazing and I really got into it

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

And here are my predictions..Pretty annoyed that Borderlands didn't at least get nominated for multiplayer, it's far better that most of those listed.

Whether MW2 deserves much of that is another matter, I'd be happy to see MW2 take use of audio and that's about it.

This would be the only one to grind my gears, since the whole BAFTA awards are pretty casual anyway.

Well as far as the campaign goes it's pretty mind blowing but other than that the whole game is just CoD4 reskinned, modders on the PC could of done it.

[Fez]

Not exactly artistic. Sure it was epic wins and represented the brutality and desperation, exactly what an artistic achievement is.

Flower or Assassin's Creed 2 deserves it more.

flower wasnt new last year was it? :S

and tbh, although U2 was a lot like the graphics in the first game, it was still faaaaaaaar better than that of any of those nominated.

Assassins Creed 2 deserves the majority of the listings to be honest, Borderlands should of had multiplayer related ones, although MW2 is good online it's too generic now, L4D2 was ok but half the time you never got into full lobbies.

Batman maybe for a few as well but I donno, it was a sweet game but I'm not sure it compares well for Assassins Creed, then obvious handheld winner and the family games stuff, Nintendo are all over that.
