Now this is a little unfair for all the game creators out there. Todd Howard won the Game of the Year award last year at the DICE Awards gaming event. He also won a Lifetime Achievement Award at the annual Game Developers Choice Awards in March.  And this year, he’s being inducted into gaming’s Hall of Fame at the 20th annual DICE Summit coming up in February.

OK, we’re joking about this being unfair. Howard deserves the kudos for his stellar job as executive producer and game director at Bethesda Game Studios. He’s been integral in the creation of award-winning open-world games such as The Elder Scrolls series and Fallout.
