VGA Reveals Already Lined Up for Next Month’s Award Show

November 3, 2011

Spike has announced its short lists for the annual Video Game Awards show, the ceremony that gives real gamers a chance to laugh at all the bull shit awards it seems like publishers paid off the producers for. With two out of the 5 game of the year nominees not even out yet, it might be time to start laughing now.

The show also promises to reveal more on Metal Gear Solid: Rising with a world premiere, a new project from the developers behind Mass Effect and a brand new adventure starring Alan Wake. I'm sure more will make its way to the high-priced advertising extravagaanza, especially considering it'll be aired on MTV2 this year as well.

Portal 2

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
