VGA: The Winners Are…

VGA: The Winners Are…

Yesterday we held our own “pre-VGA” poll to determine which games should receive awards by community choice. Now, the Video Game Awards are over and the winners have been determined by them. Yesterday, the 9th annual Video Games Awards were held by Spike TV and it goes without saying that thousands of gamers were involved in the voting process to determine 2009′s winners, according to VGA of course. This year has really been a great one for gaming, but I have this good feeling that 2010 will be one of the most awesome years we’ve seen so far. We said that about 2009 initially, but unfortunately a lot of the most anticipated titles, such as God of War III, Final Fantasy XIII and Bioshock 2 were delayed to 2010. Anyway, check out the VGA awards below in full – eGamer’s Awards are coming soon, so look out for them! The best is yet to come.

    Best original score – Halo? Seriously where did that come from. Now it’s time for ‘fake-awards’ like most epic fail, least anticipated game, the list can go on but I’m nowhere near board enough yet to post all the possibilities.
