It won Least Hated Game.
Their version of game of the year.

Well then I don't know how I missed that.
The award names are genius.
"Kind of OK developer"
"S.T.A.L.K.E.R Award for Least Convincing Voice Acting"
"Press X to Win Award"
The voting page was more solidly developed than that of any "professional" award-voting systems of mainstream websites I have seen.
The "Fattest Developer" category had Gaben listed as like 6 entries too :v:
Gonna be on constant stream in kind of shitty quality, might go to bed soon.

It happened.
This video (or should I say vidya) was actually pretty well done and entertaining. It seemed to me that Valve won a [I]lot[/I] of awards, but then again it's been a while since I played Portal 2.
I would have liked to see DX:HR or B:AC get some more love, though.
I really liked the "90s theatre" intro, though, that really brought me back. When I was a kid, the theater I went to had that intro video.

I don't have the poll results, but looks like it got beat by Monster Girls but someone that organized this thought it would be too silly/gimmicky (because even if most of the video was overflowing with toilet humor, the picks were serious ones), so they probably went with the second-ranked game.
Bastion won a fuckload of awards. It deserved them, sure, but holy shit guys.
That was simply amazing
This is the greatest video game award show I have ever seen.
[B]Period[/B]
they make fun of reddit for giving bastion awards then give that piece of shit 3/4 of the awards it is elected for lol
also I enjoyed Dragon Age 2 sue me. gameplay is way less fucking boring, story lags a lot less. also why rage over romantic elements in a game? oh well.
bastion sucks and the best gamers were hilarious.

the part with rage where the guy's head was popping in and out nearly had me crying with laughter though, seriously. that game is so god damn bad.

Nah, Deus Ex HR was ahead.

I had no idea who they were going to choose for worst fanbase because they were all equally awful.
This is pretty amazing
I didn't watch the whole thing before it got take down, was Chris-Chan fucking the blow up doll while "We are the World" played the most offensive part?
It was. Lame.
Suck Valve's dick some more holy shit.
Every single award was given to Valve or Portal 2 or anything pertaining to Portal 2.
It'd be nice if all Valve games and related things were excluded from VGAs since it's pointless to include them because they always win.
Also lol when they bashed reddit for making all their awards Bastion, Portal 2, and Skyrim. Skyrim was the only one they [i]didn't[/i] shower in awards.
Other than that this was fucking funny and I'm glad I watched it. The guy pissing on the sheet of paper with "Video Games" written on it had me in stitches.
it's what they voted for, nothing you can do about that

It didn't win everything. Portal won 2 and valve won 2. Whats the point of an awards show if you take out all the things that are going to win?
Bit sad that this is about as close as we'll get to a proper award show for video games that isn't a massive publicity stunt/game announcement show for a while longer.
I kind of feel like their bias is overstated. Portal 2/Valve/Bastion may have won a lot of awards, but they didn't win EVERYTHING, and they were at least understandable picks. Even the ones I disagree with I kind of get, like the voice acting ones.

There's no bias, this is just what the hardcore gaming public voted for. Valve / Portal 2 didn't always [url=http://vidyagaemawards.com/results.php?votes]win with more than 50%[/url] but still got most votes overall. So there will be a majority of people bitching that something else should've won.
I loved the delicious rage 4chan was bringing after the awards.
also what is the source of the "console wars" at 1:16:59?
just watched it, i really think DE:HR deserved more awards
[QUOTE=Xephio;34709442]just watched it, i really think DE:HR deserved more awards[/QUOTE]
it may not seem like it, but least hated game is something big on /v/
Really enjoyed it, anyone know where I can find a list of the songs used?
[QUOTE=Akuma_lektro;34710445]it may not seem like it, but least hated game is something big on /v/[/QUOTE]
I kind of agree with him though.
I thought it had the best gameplay of the year along with trailer. Then again, I AM a Deus Ex lover.
That was a fucking masterpiece.
