Game Critics Awards has announced its nominees for the 2000 Best of E3 Awards; the winners will be announced here tonight. Halo has been nominated for Best of Show, Best Original Game, Best PC Game, and Best Action Game. (Oni is sadly absent, although it took last year's award for Best Action/Adventure Game).

The Game Critics Award Committee is made up of 35 editors of gaming mags, so its approval is something to be proud of. Cross your fingers...
