On Friday, Xbox LIVE Arcade revealed its Community’s Picks for Best Games (of 2007, I’m assuming) at the GDC awards show.  First, XBLA assembled a panel and hand-picked the few titles that best represented each award category.  Then, they gave it to us, the gamers to vote on the first 6 categories.  We, 26,000 strong, voted and thus arrived at the winners for each category.  The last 4, were determined by sales and gameplay data, Metacritic score and staff vote.  So, without further adieu, the 2007 Xbox LIVE Arcade Award Winners:

• Best Overall Arcade Game: “Bomberman Live” (Hudson Entertainment)
• Best Classic Game: “Castlevania: Symphony of the Night” (Konami Digital Entertainment)
