I'm waiting to read the kindergarten reasons as to why fs2 got so many awards.
Free Space two has so many awards because the game is really fun to play and is a "top pick". (imagine a 5 year old reading that sentence)
I imagine that this is an easy assignment. The only thing hard for you is gathering all of this fs2 information. If you want to see what got me an A in transitional xhtml web design, go
here. I can't believe i was given two weeks to do basically the same thing you were asked too. Mostly it consisted of a big list of requirements my page had to fulfill, the assignment said the site needed a purpose. But i treated that as moot since the assignment is nothing more than you demonstrating how to put images on the site, links, blablabla. I stayed up one night drinking shots while i was doing the page. I did indeed put it off until the last second, i really didn't want to do it very badly. If you go through my site, you're bound to find burried not too deeply my pessimism. It's also old, and the facts aren't straight, but it's a great page layout with awesome background color, font size, font color, and navigation (i did a great job at this). The rest of it is random bull**** that was just to show i could do something like an email link (reason why some stuff on the site seems random). The only fun i had that drunken night was
this.
You're bound to have fun with your assignment. It's only html, you can do it drunk and get an awesome grade

EDIT: Sorry i don't have anything to contribute but encouragement.
