Two key sponsors add their support to the GameShadow Innovation in Games Awards

GameShadow today announces that Microsoft Visual Studio has given its support to the new GameShadow Innovation in Games Awards as title Sponsor. Microsoft Visual Studio joins previously announced sponsors ATI, Softwrap and Limelight Networks, and new category sponsor Moviestorm who will be supporting the Best Machinima Movie Award.

Nicholas Lovell, CEO of GameShadow, commented, "It is fantastic that Microsoft Visual Studio is supporting the GameShadow Awards. It shows that there is a real commitment out there to uncover and recognise real creative innovation as oppose to only rewarding the big industry blockbusters. This sponsorship marries Microsoft Visual Studio's desire to make it easier for developers to make great games with our drive to help gamers play the most innovative titles."

More than 50 games have been nominated for awards across categories including Best Script, Innovative Use of Audio and Most Innovative Gameplay. Gamers can vote for their favourite title, and see the current results, in real-time, in the ATI CrossFire People's Choice Awards. Over 5,000 people have voted already, and with three weeks to go until voting closes, there is still time to make a difference. As an added incentive, all voters are entered into a draw to win an ATI CrossFire Ultimate Gaming Kit worth over $1,000.
