Best of E3 2007 Winners announced

rockband02.jpgThe official winners of the Game Critics Awards: Best of E3 2007 have been revealed, with Best of Show going to Rock Band. The game also picked up awards for Best Social/Casual/Puzzle and Best Hardware/Peripheral. Best Original Game went to LittleBigPlanet, with Best Console Game going to Xbox 360 title Mass Effect. Quite a few award winners are headed for the PS3, with Best Racing Game going to Burnout Paradise, Best Action Game for Call of Duty 4 and Best Sports Game going to Madden NFL '08. Killzone 2 got a Special Commendation for Graphics. A full list of winners is available here.

I’m really looking forward to seeing Rock Band and LittleBigPlanet in action. While a lot of the next-gen hype has centered on the graphics and processing power of the consoles, it’s interesting to see that two of the most critically applauded PS3 titles are innovating in the peripheral and online department respectively, rather than graphical.
