EA cleans up at gamescom 2011 Awards

EA scored highly at this year’s Gamescom Awards, taking home four wins and nabbing the coveted Best of Gamescom trophy with Battlefield 3.

FIFA 12, Star Wars: The Old Republic, and the newly launched The Sims Social also won acclaim.

Sony came in second with a Best Hardware win for PlayStation Vita – unsurprisingly, as it was the only major new hardware presence – and Best Mobile Game for Uncharted: Golden Abyss.

The full list of winners is as follows:

  • Best of Gamescom: Battlefield 3, DICE, Electronic Arts
  • Best Hardware: PlayStation Vita, Sony Computer Entertainment
  • Best Console Game: FIFA 12, EA Sports, Electronic Arts
  • Best Mobile Game: Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Bend Studio, Sony Computer Entertainment
  • Best Online Game: Star Wars: The Old Republic, BioWare, Electronic Arts
  • Best PC Game: Diablo III, Blizzard Entertainment, Activision
  • Best Browser Game: The Sims Social, EA Play, Electronic Arts
  • Best Family Game: Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster, Double Fine, Warner Bros. Interactive

Thanks, EDGE.

From What I can tell there was no Bathesda presence at Gamescom. ANd if they aren’t there, then no rewards.

Edit: There is a booth but no one covered them wtf?
