Let the fighting begin.
 
I don't think Assassin's Creed 2 is better than Red Dead or Arkham Asylum.
 
Mass Effect 2 got Ultimate game of the year.
 
Angry Birds not even getting a nod is a travesty.

It might not be ground breaking, it might be for phones but it encapsulates everything electronic gaming has always stood for....

It's been downloaded over 30million times now, bare in mind that Super Mario Bros which is one of the best selling games of all times has sold 40million units in 25years.
 
ME2 won? Jesus. It was such a let down when compared to the first - I preferred Red Dead. And no mention for Just Cause 2 anywhere? Shame on you, Golden Joysticks.
 
VGAs.

Can't argue with Red Dead.
 
To be fair thats individual game, so I guess its up against shit like Fishing 2011 and... Pogosticks 4.
 
How the hell did God of War 3 win best Ps3 game (unless its exclusives only)? Fairly average game. If its not only exclusives Black Ops, Red Dead Ac3, Fallout etc would all be far better
