The 2009 Spike VGA's have come and gone, and I'm here to provide you with a thorough account of my highs and lows from the show. Enjoy!



Highs:

Teh Star Warsz?!!!



Yes. This is THE win. I love anything with Star Wars on it, so a new "Force Unleashed" definitely tickles my fancy. The first "TFU" was an awesome idea, but was seen by some as too flawed to be considered awesome. I liked it, and I can't wait to see what they do with this.

Arkham 2 Reveal!



After finishing "Arkham Asylum", my original thought was I didn't want a sequel to be released. Unfortunately, Rocksteady Studios is just too much of a tease to hold me back. I need more Arkham.

GoW III as most anticipated makes me a :) man.



I love this series. This is my most anticipated game of 2010, and I'm glad to see I'm not alone.

True Crime



Am I the only one who actually enjoyed True Crime: New York City? Sure, the game was flawed, but it was what video games are supposed to be. FUN. Remember fun? Playing Super Mario on your NES fun? Where the hell did that run off too?

I'm excited for this.

Uncharted Winning GOTY.



I called Call of Duty. I truly did. I had a hunch, and I've never been happier to myself be wrong. Uncharted 2 is fantastic, and a better overall package then MW2 (don't shoot me for saying it), and therefore, deserves the honor, especially after Naughty Dog was screwed all night. (Best dev in the business. I will ro sham bo anyone who wants to contest that point.)

Lows:

Megan Fox winning. Anything.



I will begin by saying, I hate Megan Fox. She looks too stupid to be attractive, and she's a bimbo. Not only that, the game she apparently did so well in, sucked balls. I sense a little riggage.

Green Day: Rock Band. And I like Green Day.



I'm sorry Green Day, I really, really am, but I pretty much, at this point, hate most things beginning with Guitar Hero or ending with Rock Band. Maybe I'll shell out the $60 for your game. But I probably won't.

Mike Tyson trying to act with those poor kids from Jersey Shore.



Okay, wow. That was potentially the worst display of acting I've seen in a very long time. Jack Black's bit, funny. Probably because it was done by a professional actor, not a washed up, over powered ex-Punchout character. Poor Jersey Shore kids. Even though they're almost as annoying, they just wanted to get paid.




Okay, well that's it. The highs, and the lows, from Spike's VGA's. I haven't covered them all, but I think the biggest points have been given their rightful journalistic limelight. I for one, am extremely pumped about what's to come in the new year.

Oh, and why in the hell, was the guy in The Bravery playing that guitar like a violin? WTF?
