Westwood co-founders recognized as Industry Icons at The Game Awards

Newsbrief: The Game Awards host Geoff Keighley has revealed that the recipients of this year's Industry Icon Award will be Westwood Studios co-founders Brett Sperry and Louis Castle. 

Although Westwood closed up shop over a decade ago, the studio helped popularize the real-time strategy genre with Command & Conquer, a game that quickly became a franchise in its own right following the creation of countless sequels and spin-offs, such as the highly regarded Red Alert series. 

The Game Awards will be streamed online on December 3. Find out how to watch the show in your area by visiting the official website.
