Scion was nominated for tons of ENnies and won a couple... Warhammer cleaned up at the ENnies. WotC wasn't nominated, can't say if any products were submitted, but they ended up with the fan vote for best publisher...

I've gotta admit, I don't know much about it. What's the gist of it?

My understanding is that you are some sort of avatar of a god, born as a mortal who has to regain godhood over three games Scion: Hero, Demigod and God. The WW spokesman told me it feels a lot like Aberrant in play. it is set in modern times.
I recently finished reading and really enjoying Neal Gaiman's "American Gods" and it was right up this alley.
From White Wolf's Web site:
"The savage Titans have escaped their eternal prison to wage war with the Gods once more.
Their battles in the Overworld have spilled over to ours.
Armed with abilities and weapons granted by their divine parents, the Scions stand as humanity’s only defense."

Are the rules based on the typical WW's game? Or is it a different mechanic?

It appears to be based on the typical WW Storyteller mechanic. Roll a handful of d10s (dice pool) and any 7, 8, 9 or 10 counts as one success. Tougher actions require more successes to succeed. For example, 5 successes would be extremely difficult.
I had a lot of fun playing Aberrant years back, also a Storyteller game. The D20 version doesn't do much for me, but the Storyteller version was neat.
