Last night’s Academy Awards which saw “The Hurt Locker” prevail over 3D blockbuster Avatar for both best picture and best director reflected a growing trend of online Oscar chatter leading up to the awards.

With the Academy Awards on March 7, fans online are increasingly discussing the nominees for best picture (a category that has expanded to include 10 films this year) and the best actor/actress awards.

Video games based on films have long provided fans an opportunity to enhance their movie experience by taking control of the central characters and reliving the action firsthand.
