Just curious since my friend sent me this link about EVE beating WoW, did WoW win any awards of 2007? Also, does anyone have a link to that list showing top rated games? I believe CoD4 is at the top with WoW 2nd?

Burning Crusade was considered a 2007 release. It won expansion pack of the year from Gamespot and GameZone, as well as a number of other awards.

We also just won an emmy at CES.

Q u o t e:

An Emmy? Aren't those for TV?

They extend a bit beyond just TV. They also give them in the categories of Technology and Engineering.
