2nd annual top ten hottest videogame industry guys search begins photo

Time to show the hotties with the joysticks some love! I'm calling on the Dtoid community for nominations in this year's Hottest Videogame Guy Top Ten list. Last year, the female community helped me create a great list, but it was dominated by the videogame media, and this time I want to give the guys behind the games a chance to rank on the list.

So let's hear some more nominations this time around. Give me who you think is a sexy slice of videogame industry meat, and then I'll have the whole community vote on who they think should be on the top ten list.

Anyone in the industry can be nominated, as long as they have a tie to the gaming industry. They can be bloggers, media personel, professional gamers, TV hosts, programmers, CEOs, etc. Just remember to give me their name, a picture, and the company or publication they work for.

And yes, even the men of the Destructoid staff can be nominated.

The nominations must be posted in the comments by December 1st at midnight EST -- I want to give everyone a fair chance to nominate their favorites.

Once all the nominations are in, I will start having voting battles with two nominations each day until we narrow it down to the final top ten. Sound good? Well ... get nominating!

Number 1 has to be Jim Sterling, but only if he wears the monocle. Can we get him a really nice one if he wins?

Nick Chester is actually, really really hot, although you would never know it from his picture. And I say this as someone with a discerning eye for aesthetics, not just as someone that sleeps naked with him.



*sigh*

And I nominate Chad, too. I've never seen him in person, but he populates my dreams nightly.

I'm going to put myself under the bus and nominate myself cause I think I'm pretty good looking. I'm no Ron "Dreamy Eyes" Workman, but I can strut my stuff down a cat walk. And yes, I am a part of the industry (I am a PR rep doncha know)

A vote for xBBx is a vote for freedom and Papa Smurf! BTW: My real name is Daniel Perez for those keeping score.
