Sega proudly accepted several Game Critics Awards for its presence at E3. Here's Sega's official announcement. Particularly of note, Sega's Super Monkey Ball 2 wins the award for best puzzle game of show.


Building upon its reputation for creating the best video game content, Sega of America, Inc. today announced "Sega Sports NFL 2K3" won Best Sports Game and "Super Monkey Ball 2" won Best Puzzle/Trivia/Parlor Game in the "Game Critics Awards: Best of E3 2002," the independent E3 awards committee recognizing excellence at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3).

Additionally, Sega's 2002 lineup continues to receive industry accolades following E3 with Associate Chairman of the Game Critics Awards, Geoff Keighley, calling Sega "without a doubt one of the most important third-party publishers" and the Dallas Morning News stating that "Sega had the best showing among the publishers" at E3 2002.
