For the games to have been nominated, the games had to have been released between December 1, 2010 and November 30, 2011, and the credited writers for each game must have been (or applied to become) members of the WGA Game Writers Caucus at the time their scripts were submitted.
The 2012 WGA awards will take place on February 19, with two ceremonies running simultaneously for the guild’s western and eastern constituencies in Los Angeles and New York.
