Poll CBS announces Gamers' Choice Awards (42 votes)

I prefer The Game Awards 12%
I prefer Gamer's Choice Awards 5%
I'll watch both 24%
I'm watching neither. 60%

Damn.. Geoff Keighley must not be happy about this.

What do you think, SW? Are you interested? It has a lot of weird categories.

Its funny how in SW we argue about gameplay, skills, movie games and all that crap. When you think about it these awards are mostly about watching then playing. For "fans" Fortnite is going to clean up mostly because of how cool it was to see Ninja play with Drake or Ninja teaching Ellen how to play. Media starting to recognise how powerful this phenomenal is now days. Another awards that will show how out of touch with the public SW is.

I'm going to guess Keighley is most likely laughing his ass off. An hour-long show airing from 5-6 p.m. on a Sunday, after its early games conclude -- none of which are really good that weekend -- but while the late games are broadcasting in their markets?

Sure, it's also "simulcasting" on the CBS Sports Network, but I think I speak for many when I say: there's a CBS Sports Network?

Unless it has music interludes from over-weight rapsters screaming at the camera to fill time I ain't watching this shit.

Dang, looking at that list, Xbox needs more fans. Maybe Phil Spencer can buy some next gen.

Another link since your link wasn't working for me for some reason: https://wccftech.com/cbs-gamers-choice-awards-dec-9th/

In before a certain emotionally compromised individual comes in crying that Forza Horizon 4 wasn't nominated in the fan favorite game category and is only in the fan favorite sports/racing game category.

@kenshiro3948: The mods on this site sure do take a lot of time before they ban the ban dodgers such as yourself quack.

This reminds me a lot of how memes die. Soon as it hits mainstream television networks, it becomes lame as shit.

These awards will get taken seriously when they stop with the “best shooter/rpg/etc” and start recognizing the talent behind the games like the oscars and all the other media awards do.

Best Art Direction/Best Created Atmosphere/Best Sound Desig/Best Technical Achievment etc.

Talking about me twice in the last 2 awards threads, and trying to do it on the sly.

We all know it is you who's emotionally compromised isn't that right quack LMFAO.

I never mention your name in any of my posts. The fact you get so triggered and assume it has to be only you out of the hundreds of lemmings on SW shows how emotionally compromised you are. Keep crying, I really enjoy squeezing the tears out of you.

Both occasions you mention an "individual" (in the quote chain) not an entire fanbase, and talked about FH4 and we all know who's the biggest lem here when it refers to racing games lol.

It's ok quack we know you get emotionally compromised, so much so the mods nuked you because of it lol, that's all the proof right there, poor quack. When you comeback with another alt, try and be better so people don't recognize you so quickly :)

@jun_aka_pekto: as it is right now these awards are just fan service and a circle jerk for fanboys.

Industry leaders that work hard should be recognized so that it’s less “cool game” and more “excellent achievement”.

I don't mind. they're (the fanboys) the ones forking over the moolah. Let em have their fun. I mean, the games I love probably aren't on their radar either. But, oh well.

I would leave the "critical" acclaim to the developers. Let them decide among their peers who is the most deserving to win. I think they have their awards for those already.
