It's an award for past and current accomplishments. Not a yearly award. I wish they would of put one frame in that montage of Titan.

[QUOTE="supa_badman"]

The VGA's aren't that bad, once you just see it as entertainment. I'm not sure what people would want from it.

And ANOTHER zombie game? At least the aesthetics looks nice

XVision84

I expect a list of good nominees (picked by a panel of judges that decides on quality, not popularity) and a large list of awards that are won by games that deserve those awards. I do not expect this from the VGA's though, I expect this from the proper awards show: AIAS.

When I see the awards, I expect to see them take the time to honor the people who work on those games, show people from the undustry as hosts (like Tim Schafer and Cliffy B), and spend some time on each nomination.

Instead its a bunch of random celebrities, lame jokes, and too much time on things not related to gaming at all. Hulk Hogan was onstage for more time then 20 of the games that won awards.

Its embarrassing.

This is exactly why I'm not supporting VGA by watching VGA. Spike is awful, Activision is awful, and bro gamers are awful. Hope Blizzard goes to Hell for siding with them. All they've made me do is rage since 2008's Wrath of the Fail King. :(

Really freakin' awesome content patches! :D

Blizzard wins Gamer God Award?

There's nothing wrong with that. They're the most worthy. There's everything wrong with the second one though.

Oh, they kept saying "this years gamer God" or something. So how didn't Nintendo win then?

They said Blizzard is "this year's gamer god", but what did Blizzard release this year that's THAT good?

I'd rather give such awards to Nintendo, or Valve and such.

Certainly not Cataclysm, as most of the people I've seen play it say its bad. Others are dropping off like flies. Blizzard has done nothing but get worse since the merger. Sloooowly, too. Wonder how much Morhaime and Kotick slipped to Spike for this? I'd REALLY like to hear the numbers.

Yeah seriously, Blizzard didn't release ANYTHING this year, so they don't exactly deserve Gamer God.

Its like giving Ryan Gosling a best actor award for a movie he was in 2 years ago.

I'm not angry about Blizzard, just curious. They're a good developer, just not sure what they did this year (but as others have said, they might've meant that this year's winner is Blizzard).

The gaming god award IS NOT for a project released in the last year. It's an award that recognizes a studio as a whole for their impact on the industry. Not that hard.
