eGamer Awards 2012: The Wrap-Up

The eGamer Awards for 2012 have drawn to a close, and firstly we’d like to thank all of you for sticking around, and especially for voting in our community polls earlier this month. It was a blast. Thank you also for your incredible support that keeps us going from strength to strength and, well, arguably keeps us a little less insane too. Or more so, if our Facebook page is anything to go on.

But really, you guys and girls were awesome and a great amount of fun, and we hope you’ll continue to stay with us and keep tormenting us on our Facebook page. It’s endless entertainment for us.

Of course, we’ll be taking a short leave of absence. Our bones, minds and trigger-happy fingers are tired, but that doesn’t mean we’ll be out. We’ll of course be scheming for the year ahead very soon, and hopefully enter the next phase of our plan for total world domination. One can always dream.

Now, in case you’ve been lazy or away these past two or three weeks, here is the obligatory wrap-up which will make everything nice and easy for you to read, and conveniently link you to all our previous awards so you can check them out at your leisure. Check out the summary down below.

Simply click on the name of the award, highlighted in blue, to get taken to the article.
