    Little known fact: Swedes love a good pat on the back. It's true, all of us like to be congratulated on a job well done, but for them it's in a league of its own. This year, they've heaped the honor for the best Swedish-made game at the annual Dataspelsgalan award show onto DICE's parkour-inspired first-person scoot-er, Mirror's Edge. When asked why it was so special, top Swedes commented to Joystiq that the "graphics on level three were really tight," among other things. One thing is certain: Mirror's Edge was definitely one of the better games from last year.Previous Swedish GOTY winners: 2000 Fem myror är fler än fyra elefanter 2001 Ground Control 2002 Headhunter 2003 Battlefield 1942 2004 - 2005 Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay 2006 Battlefield 2 2007 GTR 2: FIA GT Racing Game 2008 World in Conflict
