Who would you have?

I can dig this result. Uncharted 2 is a big technical achievement. And, as has been hinted at in many reviews, put Naughty Dog right up there with the best of 'em.

Valve by a country mile.

Borderlands isn't an RPG. Its an RPS :fp:

For... Left 4 Dead 2? Or are we talking Steam advancements?

Looking back at the thread I said Capcom for Street Fighter, Resi, Street Fighter 2 HD remix and Marvel vs Capcom, ya know, more than one game.

I would also have settled for Valve with L4D2 and never ending TF 2 support.

Dala being wrong on mumble :fp:

Hello! The awards will resume in 15 minutes time

Something Fishy

Both, and the way they continually support TF2.

Which awards are left?

But isn't it better to make one incredibly polished game and pack it with loads of features, then support it extensively, than to just make a load of games?

Naughty Dog deserve it. I mean, they allow employees three months programming whatever the hell they want for ideas before starting proper work on their games. I doubt many companies do that.

And we're back! Let's crack straight on with the last 6 awards, before the big kahuna - the Game of the year.

The next award is for

Best Games magazine

And the winner is...

Edge

2nd – Games TM

3rd – NGamer

Sometimes [2nd] can be better than [1st]

The next award is for

Best Games Website

And the winner is...

GRcade

2nd – Eurogamer

3rd – Gametrailers

YEESSSSS

Like Valve with Team Fortress 2?

And of course making 'a load of games' doesn't entitle them to it, but games of the high quality of Street Fighter IV or Resi (in co-op, it was brilliant) all add up therefore showing the diversity and prowess of a development studio, which in my mind this award should be celebrating, much more than putting out one game no matter how refined and polished it might be.

No matter how good Halo: Reach is next year I probably wouldn't call Bungie the best developer of 2010 if another company releases three or four very good games and shows off their diversity.

What was the point in allowing ourselves to be nominated? :lol:

The next award is for

Best Gaming Podcast

A curious category - gaming podcasts are not hugely popular, and those of you that do listen to them...well, don't listen to the same ones :lol:

There was one clear winner, receiving double the votes of any other candidate, and the winner is...

Giant Bombcast

Special mentions are also reserved for Listen Up, Rebel FM and One Life Left, each receiving 4 votes.
