It's that time of year again. GDC 2008 will be held from February 18th to the 22nd. These guys bested 173 other contending titles, and are now set to compete for the top post at the upcoming IGF Awards scheduled for February 20, 2008.

I have to admit that Hammerfall looks quite appealing judging that it is still 2D...

Yeah. I sort of wish this was forum v4 with the new way to post like in the News section, because it'd make it a lot easier to update the links. Just visit the main site, which have small snippets of info for each title along with their associated web sites.
