I turned off when once I realised they weren't going to let me watch any trailers. So, who won what?

Autocon · Dec 2009

saw the Reach Trailer a few days ago at work, was fantastic

toren3d · Dec 2009

I actually sat thru the whole thing and it wasn't so bad (except the Jersey Shore akwardness). Was pleasantly surprised by the Force Unleashed 2 and Halo Reach trailer (thought it wouldn't be until E3 for that), and glad to see Dragon Age and Forza won their respective categories. That Spec Ops: The Line game is definitely on my radar now, and the Medal of Honor (reboot?) was actually very impressive (I was skeptical upon hearing its announcement).

Dusty · Dec 2009

They gave best cast to Wolverine?

Getting all the actors from a movie in the 80's to reassemble and voice act for Ghostbusters was a monumental task. Bill Murray is the greatest actor ever according to Zombieland!

Good point! I don't see how Ghostbusters did not win that category now that you mention it.

Dippndots · Dec 2009

gah need higher res videos now! so much awesomeness but it's slightly ruined by shit cam quality video on the youtube, oh well hopefully everything will be on XBL tomorrow. Was the Reach trailer real time?

killingpeople · Dec 2009

Congrats to Naughty Dog for winning game of the Year with Uncharted 2!

Sean VanGorder · Dec 2009

After dedicating half my time in middle school to Halo 2, a decent amount to Halo 3, and just ignoring ODST, the Reach trailer has restored my enthusiasm for the Halo series. The book was extremely good. If its anything like the book, the game should be too.

Frump · Dec 2009

I was having fun mocking how ridiculous these awards are until I saw this.

Best Xbox 360 game: L4D2.

I raged. :poly127:

Jesse Moody · Dec 2009

Yeah seriously. Best 360 game being L4D2 is just insane... What the hell?

skylebones · Dec 2009

Yeah, that's nuts. I'm sure if there was a New Moon game it would be the grand winner of everything.

Wolverine had some pretty lackluster voice acting... wtf?
Ghostbusters was AWESOME in the voice department... wtf?
Probably voted on by people who skip cut scenes... -__-

Lamont · Dec 2009

I don't know what to think about all of this... never watched any kind of videogame award show, and won't plan on it in the near future.

hawken · Dec 2009

the burger king ad on the end of that link, has a guy modelling a woman in 3d...

Joshua Stubbles · Dec 2009

The Reach trailer was really great looking. A cut well above Halo 3. Really great work, Bungie crew - definitely looking forward to it.

Although we didn't have much competition this year, Forza 3 got racing GotY!

Congrats man!

Well deserved!

TWilson · Dec 2009

I've been working on this game for the last year and a half: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/true-crime-spike-tv/59929

"The second world premiere of the VGAs was the full version of the teaser we saw a couple weeks ago -- you know, the one we initially presumed was for another installment in the True Crime series? Yeah, well, it was totally for another installment in the True Crime series, which is being developed by ModNation Racers creators United Front. Guess there's no more mystery as to what Activision's upcoming Hong Kong-set action title is, huh?"
http://www.joystiq.com/2009/12/12/true-crime-in-hong-kong-revealed-at-spike-vga/

I made the player in the trailers and the guy in the wife beater with the cleaver.

I'm glad I don't have to do the "oooh it's all top secret" response to what I'm working on anymore.

danr · Dec 2009

hands up who won one then

ImSlightlyBored · Dec 2009

studio of the year all up in here!

Thanks, dude ! We busted our asses off on that thing. Ended up being one of the more satisfying pieces I've had the chance to work on.

Thegodzero · Dec 2009

I'm not sure if i can stand to watch the VGA's again after the last few. Mostly for me its the fact that they shafted half of the winners to a quick screen blip, only to be replaced by musical performances and long winded actor bull shit! I want to see the devs not the actors, they have their own award shows! If they want to play music, them play a live piece from the game with best score of the year.

Firecracker197 · Dec 2009

This whole show was a big FAT joke. Ghostbusters was up for awards in 3 categories, and they didn't even show the nominations. First for the male performance awards Hugh Jackman just shows up and is like hey thanks for giving me both of these awards without even mentioning who else was nominated, and WTF since when does he count for a whole cast? I really thought Ghostbusters had a good shot at that one, I mean that is a real cast! And OMG WTF a Southpark tower defence xbla game beat Ghostbusters for best game based on a movie...that is more bs than I can even understand.

So thats my gripe, and I am a bit bias, but I think the guys at Terminal Reality deserved some recognition for all their hard work! They were all so excited to find out about the nomination, and you wouldn't have even known they were by watching the show, totally not cool.

But congratz to all the guys that did win, but I was so disappointed with the whole thing.

Congrats alex!

AshleyTayles · Dec 2009

Anyone mind if I go off and have a threesome with Crackdown 2 and Medal of Honor?

Cojax · Dec 2009

How does LFD2 get best 360 game? I almost feel asleep playing that game it was so boring. Not to mention it looks like a circa 2004 game. GoW3 for most anticipated game? Its the same thing as GoW2 only with a face lift.

Everything else looks fine. Uncharted 2 was amazing. Well deserved. The only PS3 exclusive that's worth a damn.

MoP · Dec 2009

L4D2 is an awesome game, it does look a tad dated (as most Valve games do these days) but it's a hell of a lot of fun. It's much more of a PC game than a console game though.

Not surprising that Rocksteady get some recognition, they're really going from strength to strength. Good job, guys

I want to hug you.

hawken · Dec 2009

you never know, it probably went like this;

VGA call Billy Murray's agent; "we were wondering if Bill is available for collecting a video-games award?"

Bill Murray's agent; "I doubt it"

VGA call Hugh Jackmans agent; "we were wondering if Hugh is available for collecting a video-games award?

Hugh picks up the phone; "of course I love video games and I'm a media whore".

...

VGA on the night; "And the winner of these prizes is, Wolverine. Welcome to the stage, Hugh Jackman!"

1% to do with the games and 99% to do with how they can make the show interesting to majority of their retarded audience.

Tumerboy · Dec 2009

GAH! Why the fuck are these things always so incredibly retarded!?

Jeremy-S · Dec 2009

All award shows I've ever seen are a popularity contest, pure and simple. Whatever ______ is hot at the moment takes the award. It's why I never watch them, all they do is get me aggravated as to why _____ won, and _____ didn't win. So as a semi-thinking being, I exercise my right to change the channel.

Frump · Dec 2009

Megan Fox won a VGA.

(For the record I was dissatisfied because L4D2 is a PC game, not because it is a bad game.)

Everything wrong with the VGA's is summarized in this single sentence
