A few weeks ago, PlayStation LifeStyle gave its verdict for Machinima.com’s 2009 Inside Gaming Awards on this year’s game with the best replayability and best downloadable title. With categories from best cinematography to best weapon, the First Annual IGA’s came and went with a bang. Now that the event has come to a close, the winners of the event are decided and revealed. And to no surprise, one of our favorite shooters cleaned up the event.
Infinity Ward and Activision’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 created a bang at the first ever Machinima Inside Gaming Awards, racking in six awards out of the 18 categories.
