The European and North American release of Aion: The Tower of Eternity may still be a ways off yet, but since it's November release in Korea the game has certainly gained a lot of praise from a rapidly expanding fan base.  Not only that, but in an announcement made earlier today Aion has been selected as the winner of the Best Korean Game of the Year 2008. 

We are delighted to announce that Aion: The Tower of Eternity has won the coveted Best Korean Game of the Year title in the Korean Game Awards for 2008. It was widely observed that Aion outshone competing efforts with its epic scale, immersive story, and stunning graphics and sound design.

Aion is certainly a stunning looking game,  so here's to hoping this is a good sign that the gameplay is equally compelling and that the localization for a Western audience goes well. Either way, it's nice to see some positive news for NCsoft for a change!
