At this year GDC with five nominations, Portal was the night's big winner at the GDC Awards. Valve's Puzzle game won the ceremony's top prize, Game of the Year 2007, as well as Best Game Design and the Innovation Award.

While recapping all the nominees, Portal was the crowd favorite, drawing loud cheers from throughout the hall. Mr.Newell took first crack at the acceptance speech with a haiku:

Orange Box puzzle game?
Digipen students are smart.
The cake is a lie.
