In a brazenly self-confident move, Rockstar Games have denied Red Dead Redemption the chance of winning a BAFTA Video Game Award.
Well, at least they’re living up to the company name.
While the shortlist has yet to be announced, Cvg has learnt that the studio’s Grand Theft Western hasn’t been nominated in any of the key categories such as Artistic Achievement, Best Game, Gameplay and Story.
A BAFTA spokesperson revealed that while the game was eligible for the awards, Rockstar “decided not to put the game forward for consideration”.
With Red Dead scooping Best Game of the Year titles like they’re going out of fashion, we’re going to go out on a limb and say they would have been odds-on favourite to nab at least a few awards.

Before we get to the supergimmick, it’s Quickfire time, and this week the chefs welcome Dana Corwin of Food & Wine magazine by saying how much attention they pay to wine. Wine is one of Angelo’s biggest passions, obviously, because he’s kind of a D-bag. This is also the final high-stakes Quickfire, and the winner gets to go to London for 6 days courtesy of the London Hilton. Angelo wins the wine challenge, obviously, because...
