Skullgirls Nominated for an Annie Award

Skullgirls has been nominated for the Annie Award in the Best Animated Video Game category. They are competing against Journey, Borderlands 2, and Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse. As much as I love Borderlands 2 (which can also be blamed for the lack of updates in recent months), I would be thrilled to see SG win this prestigious award.

In other SG news, it was revealed Friday evening that the SG team is working pretty much non-stop on a Japanese localization of the game. Also, SG has been nominated for IGN's Best Overall Fighting Game of 2012. They are up against Dead or Alive 5, Persona 4 Arena, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, & Street Fighter X Tekken for the award. And finally, SG lost against Max Payne 3 in the Best Animation category at the Inside Gaming Awards that took place last evening.
