本周在2009年英国电影学院奖（BAFTA）视频游戏颁奖典礼上，由美国游戏公司Treyarch开发的真人游戏《使命召唤4》获得了三项大奖。 而本届颁奖的黑马是《超级马里奥银河》，《超级马里奥银河》在提名不多的情况下，获得了所有奖项中最有分量的年度游戏大奖，可谓令人惊奇不已。

英国的游戏制造商Codemasters和Lionhead也分别因为Race Driver: Grid和Fable II游戏而获奖。来自北京大学的Ctrl_D四人组的游戏Vege Me也在本届BAFTA中获得了提名，但最终没有获奖。

BAFTA视频游戏奖是游戏界公认的最有艺术创意和技术创新的国际大奖，设立于1998年，并自2004年起自立门户，成为BAFTA电影奖之外的另一独立的颁奖盛事。
