GDC '08 - XBLA Awards winners announced!

Last month Microsoft had Xbox Live Arcade players vote for their favourite games. Today they've announced those winners.

We crowned the winners of the Xbox LIVE Arcade Awards at GDC. In January, more than 26,000 people voted for their favorite Xbox LIVE Arcade games, chosen by a panel of select industry journalists. The winners for the first six categories were determined by popular vote, with the final four categories decided by sales and gameplay data, Metacritic score or staff vote.
