Not that I don't care who makes games, I want them to be recognized and all but methinks a Porsche or something would make a nice award as well. =)
I know a lot of people were/is harping on GoW3 but it's still freakin' God of War 3! The game will be epic no doubt about that.
Oh and Fight Night round 4 was the disappointment for me. I wanted to see at least a 20-second fight clip.

That says volumes about the current state of our beloved industry, although I'm not exactly sure as to what.

I thought the GTA the Lost and the Damned trailer was better, which is saying something as I didn't exactly love GTA IV!

GTAIV was over-hyped before and after release, so it getting GOTY doesn't surprise me much. Then again, nothing in that list really does. I guess that Shaun White comes down to no competition?

And since GHWT came out second, and had roughly 20 shared tracks...RB2 would win by default there.
As far as "you can argue GHWT", that's the case with any award. It's the nature of the beast. You can make an argument for any nominee, but ultimately some random body makes the final say.

I watched the show for a few minutes last night, keep in mind that I don't ever watch these shows. Yesterday it was said the the lack of any game advertisements around the show was an ethics choice...fine, I even applauded the notion. However, I felt that the game previews, though informative, to those who aren't aware of these games' production and releases but to me it just seems that this is advertising. Now I can't say for sure that this was advertising because I don't know if any deals were made between the Spike TV and the publishers/developers that own these games to show these future releases. What I would like to know is if companies inside their respective industries run advertisements in or around say...the Oscars. Anyone?

But the Oscars overall are a far more professionally run program. If the VGAs could class it up a bit (at least to the VMA/MTV Movie Awards level) they'd have a shot at legitimacy.

Pretty solid!
