VG247 has been covering the annual game awards since 2009, when it was known as the Video Game Awards and hosted by Spike TV. It was full of many cringe worthy moments, truthfully, and some of the memorable for me was in 2009 when Mike Tyson took the stage with the solid of Jersey Shore – which debuted that very month. He at one level turned to them and stated: “Who are you again?” Or one thing like that.
Then there was 2008 when Tenacious D, Jack Black and Kyle Gass, confirmed up in underwear, capturing sparks from their groin (image credit). Good instances.
Back in 2013, Spike renamed the VGAs opting for VGX instead. We, which means me, had been moderately happy with the title change because of the dyslexia issue which resulted in lots of a humorous tweet calling it the “VAG” awards.
Then once more, to tolerate all of the nonsense in between bulletins, and the industrial breaks each two minutes, I needed to be half-snookered simply to get by means of the liveblog so that will have contributed.
