Who pinched ultimate BAFTA glory this year? It was BioWare with Mass Effect 2 winning 'Best Game'. Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit got Multiplayer.

Heavy Rain clinched three wins for 'Original Music,' 'Story,' and 'Technical Innovation'. GAME Award 2010 went to Call of Duty: Black Ops. Civ V got Strategy.

Congratulations BioWare for producing the 'Best Game' of 2010, at least according to BAFTA. Can they hope to pull off the same when Mass Effect 3 launches later this year? Technical Innovation could well belong to L.A. Noire next year if Rockstar enter it.

I'm glad that Battlefield: Bad Company: 2 won the "USE OF AUDIO" section, the audio is insane ingame; and why didn't Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty win the "STRATEGY" section o_O.
