I voted in everything and never recieved the emblem. Here are some of the catergories I can remember voting in: Best Story, Best New Character, Most Innovative Game, Best Graphics/Artistic, and Game Of The Year.
I voted for all, but the ones that stood out for me were the dubious honours:
Most Despicable Use of In-game Advertising, Least Improved Sequel, Flat-out Worst game, Worst Game Everyone Played.
There are many others that were fun too, like Most Violent Game to Make it Past Aussie Censors, and Best Boss Fight. Thanks for reopening this, I missed the first one by half a day!
I believe I voted for most of them, but here a few categories I remember:
Best Story, Best New Character, Best Graphics - Artistic, Best Graphics - Technical, Biggest News maker, Worst use of in game advertising, Biggest Disappointment, Worst Game of The Year, Best shooter, Best RPG, Best Platformer, Best Rhythm Game, Best Wii game, Best PS3 game, Best Xbox 360 game, Best PC game, Best DS game, Best PSP game, and Game of The Year.
I voted in everything and did not get the emblem, not sure why GameSpot "Handed out less".
I do not remember what games I voted for except I voted MGS4 as game of the year. Usually I vote for games I like best, or in some cases games I think I would like best (Best Wii game), for systems I don't own. Or I will vote for games I hated the most (Worst game everyone played).
I also voted for things like Worst use of in game advertising, or however you guys say that award.
Also:
And so on, I hope this is enough proof and maybe next time give out emblems to all that vote. Just a suggestion.
*Jumps into thread as promised*
I had voted in all the categories (some of them more than once, if I recall). Some categories I'm definitely sure I voted for were Best UK Developed Game, Best Atmosphere, Best Strategy Game, Best PC Game and Game of the Year (naturally).
Many thanks! :) *Jumps out*
i remember voting a while ago for most of it, and wanted to wote for everything but i think i couldnt cuz voting stopped, but i definitly vote for:
Best game of 2008

Most Memorable Moment
Best PS3 Game
best voice acting
Most Improved Sequel
Best Boss Fight
Best Atmosphere
Best Story

I voted in each category, but I don't remember all of the nominees or even who I voted for. I do know that each voting screen had 4-5 games on it, with the "vote" button underneath each game. Once you voted, then the percentages of votes showed up underneath the games. Below are some of the categories that I remember.
Best game of 2008
Worst game everyone played
Best game no one played
Worst use of in game advertising
Best new character
Most Memorable Moment
Best PS3 Game
Best 360 Game
Best Wii Game
Best use of liscenced soundtrack.
I know I voted for some of the negative categories, but I'll post 2 categories I am 100% sure I voted for:

(I remember fallout3 getting ALOT of votes in pretty much every category it was in) (Is it really that good?)
Well it goes without saying that I voted for all of them, but some that I actually did care about while voting were:
1. Best RPG (I still think The World Ends With You should have won; it would be a good boost for Square Enix to make new and orginal games, and quality ones at that)
2: The platforms, such as best PS3 game, best DS game, best Wii game (Even though World of Goo is technically multi-plat, being on the PC and all)
3: The platformers award.
4. The best game no one played; and going with that, the worst game everyone played
5. Worst or despicable use of in game advertisement
6. Best puzzle game
7. Best extra content (I'm assuming that Burnout Paradise patch was free?)
8. and finally, I suppose game of the year, but I'm sure everyone voted/remembers that
Is this what you're looking for :) ? I did everything to the best of my ability
