Hm, I don't think I've heard of that one before. It sounds like it might be the oldest set of game awards, having gone on for 11 years. The nominees all sound like very good picks, but I'm torn on which game I'd rather have win in most of the categories.

I've never heard of it either and I'm surprised I haven't! Maybe it's not as commercial as, say, E3? I really don't care much about the outcome though, aside from Super Mario Galaxy I haven't played ANY of those games, (quite a few I'd like to play, but unless I care to drop a few thousand pounds on a new computer that can play games made in this century, I don't think I'll get the chance...).

I haven't played any at all. Most I haven't even heard of. lol
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.

People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....
