Earlier today, Midway Games' TNA Impact was nominated in two categories in the 4th annual M16 Awards in the "Thinking Outside the Box" category.

The first nomination was in regard to the Suicide character, one for his creation and cross promotion on the TNA Impact series via his integration as a full-fledged character (as portrayed by Frankie Kazarian and Christopher Daniels).

The second nomination was for integration of the video game's entrance footage into the Impact ring entrance videos on the series.

TNA and Midway issued the following comments today:

"With their first foray into the world of gaming, TNA has shown that they can successfully and seamlessly meld the virtual and real worlds and do so in a highly creative fashion."

The award winners will be announced 4/8.

Despite their recent bankruptcy filing, Midway Games is currently working on a second TNA video game.
