The Tokyo Games Show has concluded and with it the annual awards that are bestowed upon the exhibitors. Â Japan Game Award Committee has cast their ballots and named DICE’s upcoming shooter the best of the show for 2011. Â EA claims the award to be a “major honor”, when you take into consideration that no other western developed title has recieved the top honors in Japan in over two years.
It’s been a busy convention season for DICE and EA. Â Battlefield 3 took home top multiplayer honors at this year’s E3 after putting PC gameplay on display and dropping 1000’s of jaws in the process. Â Shortly thereafter, DICE took home top honors at Gamescom, with their amazing Caspian Border showcase and Co-op gameplay.
To say that DICE has had a successful convention season is an understatement. Â Battlefield 3 hits storeshelves on October 25th, with an upcoming Battlefield 3 beta due in short order.
