Some surprises at the British Academy Video Games Awards the other night.

Remember all of these winners can be rented from LOVEFiLM, here are the highlights:

Best Sports Game - Race Driver: Grid (beating Wii Fit)
Artistic Achievement - LittleBigPlanet
Best Handheld Game - Professor Layton and the Curious Village
Best Action and Adventure Game - Fable 2
Best Game - Super Mario Galaxy (beating GTA4 and Rock band)

LittleBigPlanet has been a massive rental title, but we have seen more people going for Wii games. I think gaming rental is proving popular as a way to get a group game for the weekend for families or gaming friends, and that defintely applies to myself. Sadly I do not think a lot of people realise you can rent DS and PSP titles just the same as normal console games.
