So, this year round turns out that many of my picks for finalists didn't make the cut for the 2008 Spike TV's Video Game Awards. That being said, I still felt we had an obligation to select what we thought were the best games among those finalists I listed earlier this week.
There are certainly some deserving titles among the winners, but there are also a few head-scratchers among the nominees.
