BAFTA’s nominees for the 2012 video game awards have been announced and apparently we live in an alternate universe where games that suck or fail miserably at trying to be different (yeah you LA Noire) deserve to come out on top.

Batman: Arkham City and LA Noire faired pretty well receiving most of the nominations including Best Game, Game Innovation, Artistic Achievement, and Action.  LA Noire also scored a nomination in the Debut category.  Other titles receiving their share of nominations include Modern Warfare 3, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, FIFA 12, Portal 2, and Assassin’c Creed’ Revelations.

For the complete list of where these games and other games fall, please visit UK’s Guardian.  Do you agree with BAFTA’s decisions this year?

I just gave away my copy of LA Noire to a friend earlier today. They tried hard, but the game was really a let down.
