Directed Fallouts 3-4, Oblivion, Skyrim

Hot on the heels of Fallout 4, Todd Howard, director of later The Elder Scrolls and Bethesda's Fallout 3 and 4, will receive the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 16th annual Game Developers Choice Awards in March. Fallout 4 will also be up for several Game Developers Choice Awards including Game of the Year, Best Design and Best Technology.

Howard follows last year's lifetime achievement award winner, Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi. He also joins "Father of PlayStation" Ken Kutaragi, BioWare co-founders Dr. Greg Zeschuk and Dr. Ray Muzyka, not-retired Peter Molyneux, John Carmack, and Hideo Kojima. A whole lotta folks.
