LittleBigPlanet walked away with four awards, but Fallout 3 came out on top at last night's 9th annual Game Developers Choice Awards. For those of you who missed it or the various liveblogs, here's the rundown. Little Big Planet - GDC Awards

Despite Fallout 3 taking home the awards for Best Writing and Game of the Year, last evening's festivities were all about Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet. When it was first revealed back at GDC 2007, we had a feeling they'd be showing up at the annual awards ceremony eventually, and that feel was right. Sackboy managed to drag away four awards in total: Innovation, Best Technology, Best Game Design, and Best Debut, the latter of which caused Media Molecule's recipient to quip, "Best new debut? We've been doing this shit for 20 years!"
