    There was some really stupid wins. Like MW3 for shooter of the year? Seriously? Aside from that there are a few I do not agree with but they were still logical choices.

    The fact that Witcher 2 was totally ignored really sucks though... heck putting Dragon Age 2 as best RPG and ignoring Witcher 2 was just plain retarded.

    People the VGA right now is all just for show. People are not taking any of it seriously. I mean they bundle alot of awards were all jumbled up. It was like "lets slap titles here and there."

    MY TAKE ON IT!

    Game of the Year - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim <<Agree
    Studio of the Year - Bethesda Game Studios <<Agree
    Best Xbox 360 Game - Batman: Arkham City << Seriously? Xbox is KNOWN for its shooters and they picked an A/A?

    Best Individual Sports Game - Fight Night Champion (I dunno shit bout sports games)
    Best Team Sports Game - NBA 2k12 ....
    Best Driving Game - Forza Motorsport 4 ....
    Best Fighting Game - Mortal Kombat << this is an obvious choice also this past year it lacked in fighting games I thought Street Fighter was gonna make it. I saw more hype about SF than MK.
    Best Motion Game - The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword <<< Um I love Zelda to death but the dancing games would of been more fit to this category.
    Best Independent Game - Minecraft << Agree lol
    Best Adapted Video Game - Batman: Arkham City << YES!
    Best Song in a Game - "Build That Wall (Zia's theme)" from Bastion << >.>

    Best Performance by a Human Female - Ellen Mclain as Glados from Portal 2 ...
    Best Downloadable Game - Bastion I guess never played it
    Best DLC - Portal 2 Peer Review...

    They ignored alot of good games....
    the Diablo 3 trailer was a joke and showed NOTHING. I would of prefered a mix of Cin and Gameplay trailer.
