PixlBit's 2011 Supplemental Awards

Just when you thought awards season was over...

Winner – Battlefield 3

The utilization of the Frostbite 2 engine works perfectly in rendering the playing field in a realistic visual hue. Night levels look like night, day time looks like day. It’s not uncommon that a game sets levels and sequences at different times of day; however, no game has done so with such a rich and authentic color palette as Battlefield 3. It's not uncommon to feel the need to squint your eyes at the sun's glare through the rifle scope. With its amazing photorealism, there's no question that Battlefield 3 featured this year's best graphics.

These types of awards are always fun. Surprised Uncharted 3 didn't win best graphics (though I played BF3 on PS3). Would have picked either Rayman or Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet for art direction. I agree with a lot of these picks though.

Initially developed by Bandai Namco, it was later scrapped completely and development was shifted back to Retro Studios to start the project over. In the end, Retro has delivered a solid new entry in the series, but one that doesn’t totally capture what originally made the series so compelling.
