The Videogame Oscars
Gamasutra has responses to its weekly question of the week, this time looking at whether there will ever be an Oscars for games. The responses focused on some of the current crop of awards currently handed out, from the GDCA to Spike's debacle. From the article: "No one in the industry has taken the previous attempts at an award show seriously because they shows seem to offer up an award to the highest bidder and not the one most deserving. The only exception that I've seen come close to being a decent awards show is the Interactive Achievement Awards put on by AIAS. So how about we stop having rappers involved with the award shows based on the grounds that they like to play their Xbox? Or if we must have them involved, how about having Will Wright host the BET Awards Show? That makes about as much sense."
I just looked at the last 6 or 7 "Games" stories. None of them were submitted by readers. Just crap you found and wrote up a little crap sentence about and then quoted the article.
Face it Zonk, if there aren't enough submissions about games to pick out some from readers, then maybe most people here just don't give a shit about reading these shitty articles you come across. The post counts pretty much show that.
By the way, how's the Slashdot page view count going? I bet it's down 50% from a year ago.
