Dead Head Fred up for an award

The Writers Guild of America has nominated the Playstation Portable title Dead Head Fred for its first Video Game Writing Award. The storyline authors Dave Ellis and Adam Cogan are both nominated for their work on the title. This is also quite an honor for the game’s development team, Vicious Cycle Software, and publisher, D3 Publisher of America. This new award has been created to honor and highlight writers in a category which is normally forgotten. On February 9, 2008 it will be revealed if Dead Head Fred will emerge victorious among the other nominees, which include Crash of the Titans, The Simpsons Game, The Witcher and World in Conflict.
