Writers Guild Nominates Fallout 3, Red Alert 3, High School Girls
by Nick Breckon, Jan 13, 2009 2:30am PSTThe Writers Guild of America has released its nominations for the best-written videogames in 2008, and the result is a fairly eclectic mix.
Fallout 3, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, Dangerous High School Girls In Trouble!, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Tomb Raider: Underworld all received recognition from the WGA.
Only games scripted by writers that belong to the WGA were eligible to be nominated. And the WGA charges dues, so who knows how many games they really had to choose from. Still, High School Girls!
The full credit list, via Variety:
Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 (EA LA). Writer: Haris Orkin. Story Producer: Mical Pedriana.
Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble!(Mousechief). Writing: Keith Nemitz. Additional Writing: Adrianne Ambrose.

I can understand Fallout 3... but the rest? C`mon, why not Bioshock (yeah, it`s old), Dead Space, Mass Effect. Hell, why not Braid even?
First PETA says Fable "Chicken Kicker" 2 is animal friendly.
Nice to see Videogames go mainstream, but not at the cost of common sense!
