[Ennui]

Congrats on your title getting an award! I'll definitely check it out once it releases.

 

[Stormy]

Thanks Its been a really exciting day, the studio is over the moon! Its just a matter of winning over the moterstorm 2 fan boys now.

There is going to be a demo released very soon, so keep an eye out. No dout ill be on here shouting about it

 

[mocho loco]

i have had doubts of buying street fighter, but now i think i might get it

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Stormy is working on Pure? **** yeah.

 

[Tagaziel]

Meh. Giving such awards is pointless and stupid.

It's an award to marketing and hype, not the game.

 

[Asuka]

Dude **** PURE, finish Black Mesa Source its been YEARS! And i have friends waiting :/

 

[Nibwoddle]

I agree with these awards.

 

[Bad^Hat]

Nice, man. The footage I've seen is looking thoroughly awesome, will continue to keep an eye on it.

EXPLAIN!
Naow.

 

[Bad^Hat]

They're publishing/siphoning in money. I think he said last time that they don't really have much creative input.

 

[Jintor]

Nice job Storm!

 

[Krynn72]

Congrats Stormy! Thats awesome.

 

[Iced_Eagle]

Didn't know you worked at Black Storm, grats.

Anyways, I was just glad to see L4D on there

 

[Tagaziel]

They're roughly at the intelligence level of awards for best advertisements, but with more hype.

I wonder why everybody gets so sweaty and excited about these awards.

 

[Paulaner]

Best Action/Adventure Game

What a lame way to merge two opposite genres.

 

[VictimOfScience]

Yeah, I disagree with most of those choices anyway. Still, congrats to Stormy. Have a cold one for me.

Of course, I don't really care for ATV games, but since we have this forum in common I totally owe it a play. :cheers:

What a lame way to merge two opposite genres.

Yeah, let's hope Ron Gilbert can do better with Deathspank.
