VGA Reveals Already Lined Up for Next Month's Award Show

Posted on Thursday, November 3 @ 12:38:04 Eastern by

Spike has announced its short lists for the annual Video Game Awards show, the ceremony that gives real gamers a chance to laugh at all the bull shit awards it seems like publishers paid off the producers for. With two out of the 5 game of the year nominees not even out yet, it might be time to start laughing now.

The show also promises to reveal more on Metal Gear Solid: Rising with a world premiere, a new project from the developers behind Mass Effect and a brand new adventure starring Alan Wake. I'm sure more will make its way to the high-priced advertising extravagaanza, especially considering it'll be aired on MTV2 this year as well.

Game of the Year
Batman: Arkham City
Portal 2
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

Most Anticipated Game
BioShock Infinite
Diablo III
Halo 4
Mass Effect 3
The Last Guardian

    I'm not ready to call game of the year yet. I haven't played enough Batman or any Skyrim.

    For 2012, though, I'll take some The Last Guardian.

    Well, at least they're waiting until all of the nominees are actually released before proclaiming one of them game of the year.
