Gaming awards. Some right moronic choices - Halo 2 nominated for best graphics? Please. The best FPS section is just a joke, we all know the xbox fanatics will vote Halo 2 and the PC gamers will vote Half Life 2. The best military game section is interesting - I voted for Rome total war before I saw Dawn of War, which I might have chosen instead.

Spike TV's awards are centered at the same core audience that their TV shows are, Jocks and Horney college freshmen.  So ya, Halo 2 becasue of it's pupularity with "non-nerds" will win lots of awards.

I actually voted in this thing. I don't even play video games regularly, but I like the power of voting. I kind of followed the philosohy that if I had heard of it then I needed to vote for something else.
