The 2014 BAFTA Game Awards were presented last night on March 12th and The Last Of Us (TLoU) was the big winner. Taking home five awards overall, including Best Game Of The Year. Ashley Johnson, who plays Ellie in TLoU also took home the Best Performance award.
The Best British Game award went to the well deserving Grand Theft Auto 5 and the charming Tearaway for PS Vita also got some love, winning Artistic Achievement and Best Handheld Game.
Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons, the emotional co-op adventure took home the award for Game Innovation. The fantastic Super Mario 3D World, while nominated, failed to secure itself any awards this year.
