‘Animal Crossing’, ‘StarCraft’ and others inducted into the World Video Game Hall Of Fame
Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego, StarCraft, and Microsoft Flight Simulator will all be added, alongside inductees from the last six years.The finalists that fell short this year include Call Of Duty, FIFA, Guitar Hero, and Portal. Each winner was given a brief introduction from industry professionals, explaining why they were best placed for the World Video Game Hall Of Fame.“The freedom of play in Animal Crossing gave the game wider gender and age appeal than many other video game titles of its time,” says Research Historian Racquel Gonzales.
