Of course, as far as I know, these might be pretend awards, unlike that award I got when I was 12 for "World's Greatest Boobie Inspector." That was a proud day around the baby arm household, let me tell you. Back on topic, you can read the World's Greatest BfME2 Fanboy's complaints about the nominations <a href="http://uticensis.blogspot.com/2006/08/while-im-talking-about-awards.html" title="Portico">here</a>. </p><p>Spotted @ <a href="http://www.gamesindustry.biz/index.php">GamesIndustry</a></p>

babyarm: #1 Greatest Boobie Inspector and third place 1983 Keg Licking Champion.

Then again, you never had to contend against the fearsome Doodlebops Club House Games so your victories are hollow, man.

Trust me - there are bigger BfME2 fan boys than me.

Kudos to Battlegoat. For a first game, SR2010 is very, very impressive. Almost too ambitious, but I like it.

With the size of the Canadian computer game industry, it's more than a little surprising that SR2010's only competition is a kid's game.

I was trying to think of some other Canuck games released in the past year that could compete and drew a blank. Bioware & Digital Extremes didn't release anything that I can remember. Relic had The Outfit, but that was console only. Rockstar Toronto had The Warriors, but that looked like crap (misplaced nostalgia + beat em up = please no). Uh, what else? One of those Splinter Cell games? One of EA's sports games?

Hey look, they won. Those Doodlebops will never mess with them again.
