IGN, sicuramente uno dei maggiori punti di riferimento del mondo videoludico, ha deciso di assegnare un premio per ogni categoria ai migliori giochi presentati all'E3 di quest'anno.
Impossibile non notare la completa assenza tra i premiati delle due principlai Killer Application per console Next Gen, vale a dire Killzone 2 (ps3) e Halo 3 (X360), scalzati nella loro categoria dal ben più innoviativo Call Of Duty 4 che vince il premio come miglior FPS e come migliore tecnologia grafica.
Pluripremiato Fallout 3 per xbox360 che vince come miglior RPG, miglior console game e miglior gioco presentato.
Anche Rock Band (sempre per 360) è piaciuto molto agli esperti di IGN che l'hanno messo in cima nelle categorie Music game, Multiplayer Experience e Periferiche/Hardware (per l'esattezza il premio è stato vinto dal Drum kit, la batteria).
