Up Against Tough Competition in Handheld Category
In Britain, BAFTA, or British Academy of Film and Television Arts, holds annual ceremonies celebrating the best in movies, TV, animation, and video games. This year, Sonic stands to be among those best.
The handheld edition of Sonic Colors for Nintendo DS was nominated this year for Best Handheld in its Video Games Awards. It will be competing against an array of other portable titles, including Super Scribblenauts and Professor Layton and the Lost Future on DS, Cut the Rope on mobile. But on critical acclaim alone, Colors’s principal competition may be fellow nominee God of War: Ghost of Sparta on Playstation Portable; that title’s Metacritic ranking rests in the mid 80s.
The BAFTA Awards will be held in London on March 16th. The ceremony will also be streamed online. Thanks to darkclarkson for sending this in. If you have news to share, share it with us by clicking Send News Tips at the top of every page.

this is the only sonic game where i liked the handheld more than the main console version.
Hope it wins, I love the DS version a lot! =D
Go Colours DS! It’s the best 2D Sonic game since Sonic Advance! I hope it wins, I’ve got it and completed it. Very fun playthrough!
But what about the Wii version?! It’s vastly superior and, as even IGN stated, was one of the biggest surprises of the year.
I love both versions, but the Wii version needs more respect from the games industry, not just the fans. It just felt fast, furious, with excellent platforming, ridiculously good music, dazzling graphics, incredible visuals and an overall very fun experience. Shame that goes un-noticed
Eh, never played Colors DS, but somehow I doubt it’ll win. This really looks like another victory for Kratos, to be honest.
Sonic Colors against Cut the Rope? If it’s the Cut the Rope I THINK it is, then Colors had better at least beat THAT.
Yeah… I don’t think it’ll win.
Especially with that competition.
Well, this list is already bullshit. It doesn’t have Ghost Trick on it.
This is blasphemy, I saw no pokemon on that list !
Ooooh, it’s up agains Layton AND Scribblenauts!! I can’t choose!! >.<
It's either that or Layton, I guess, didn't like Scribblenauts as much as the other two.
pokemon is bored
