HALO STORMS BAFTAS
Grand Theft Auto doesn't get a look in at the prestigious British awards as Bungie's Xbox shooter takes top honours
12:44 The BAFTA Interactive Entertainment Awards for 2002 were announced in London last night, with Halo scooping the most sought after gongs for Best Console Game and Best Multiplayer Game.
Take-Two monster hit Grand Theft Auto III was nominated for six awards and came away with nothing. Talk suggests the game simply wasn't "worthy" enough to be honoured in the mainstream awards.
Other winners include Grand Prix 4 for Best Sports Game, which raised plenty of eyebrows from Pro Evolution Soccer fans, and Neverwinter Nights for Best PC Game.
Nintendo's quirky strategy title Pikmin won the Interactivity award, and Ian Livingstone, long-standing Eidos stalwart, took away The Gift of The Academy. No one could argue the last one wasn't well deserved.
Rumour is now circulating that next year's event is to only involve games. The ceremony currently incorporates websites and other categories as well as games.

Very nice!
The next thing for me is a projector. My dad might be building one into our new kitchen however I wont be able to ever 'under his permission' play a console on it.
But he does go on location holidays.
:-D

By this time next year I'm hoping to be in possesion of a 42" widescreen tv and an expensive dolby digital 5.1 setup for my X-Box. ;-)

What games were considered for the prizes? I mean, up to what date? I don't really rate the BAFTAS that much. I mean, Max Payne - Best Game? I think not.
Go Halo ! ;-) Still winning awards. ;-)

5.1, 23" TV, Advanced Scart and Halo! The perfect setup :)
I have completed this game 6 ttimes now including legendary in co-op mode. I am currently doing it in single player mode on Legendary (only difficulty not to complete) and in 5.1 this game is amazing! Glad to see Pikmin wins award for originality but Halo deserved the big awards, a lot of Xbox games could take those awards but not many people are aware of how many GREAT games there are on the Xbox. Ah well at least I know what to expect :)
