It's a bit like how a really impressively engineered shot in a movie might leave a film student impressed by the technical difficulties overcome to shoot it, whereas I'd probably just think it was cool; both appreciative, just coming at it from a different perspective.

I'd expect something which is nominated for that sort of thing to have something more tangible and embedded in the gameplay though. Just an opinion. It would have been my GoTY last year if it wasn't for Demon's Souls. Yeah I see where you are coming from.

I don't expect your average gamer to appreciate the advancement that much, but these are the Game Developers Choice Awards. That's likely the same reason <i>Scribblenauts</i> won several awards, despite not actually being that well rounded a game.

All the other titles in the category seem to be there on the basis of innovation in gameplay terms. Which is why it won the Technical award.
