Nominations for gaming awards now welcome until December 19th

ELAN extends submission deadline

The 3rd Annual ELAN Awards has announced that it has extended its deadline for submissions for the awards until December 19th.

“Given our expansion from what was mostly a Canadian show into a worldwide competition and then adding another entire sector, VFX, the overwhelming response both delighted and deluged us,” ELAN Awards founder and producer Holly Carinci stated.

“In order to accommodate submissions coming in from every corner of the earth, we’re giving everyone an extra couple of weeks by extending both the early bird deadline as well as the material deadline to December 19th.

“Founding partners Radical Entertainment and Relic Entertainment as well as associate partners Blue Arc, Hitachi, sgi, SPINVFX and David Kaye Productions have all gotten behind the 3rd ELAN Awards already with enthusiasm to ensure the show’s growth and to be a part of its global success.”

ELAN recently announced that it is on the hunt for judges to participate in this year’s event.

The 3rd Annual ELAN Awards will be held on February 28 2009 at the Centre in Vancouver for the Performing Arts.

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
