Academy Awards for Gaming...

The 11th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards were heldon Thursday at the Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas, with twenty-six awards handed out honoring the best in gaming of 2007.

Suppose this is like the BAFTA's or the Oscars for games, to be honest I didn't even know they were happening. But whilst at work yesterday I get sent an email from one of my old collegues with a link to the award winners.

Well...

Outstanding Achievement in Animation:
Assassin's Creed

* Publisher: Ubisoft
* Developer: Ubisoft Montreal
* Animation Director: Alex Drouin
* Lead Animators: Elspeth Tory, Sylvain Bernard

Well done everyone, probably the nearest I'll get to an actual oscar, for the moment...
