This article was written by: James Martin

Batman takes 2 awards, but did it manage to budge its competitiors out of the way for Best Game of 2009?

The results are in, and if you didn’t watch it live then I’m going to have to fill you in on the results- there were a lot of categories and the most coveted one of all- the Best Game of 2009- was won by…look below:

I was sort of expecting the Best Game to be Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and, admittedly, I was a tad disappointed when Batman was announced the winner, but at least Modern Warfare 2 didn’t win…

I’d also like to note that the GAME award was based on public voting, so really it’s no surprise that Modern Warfare 2 won that to be honest.

Next up: E3!
