Destructoid would like to congratulate Super Meat Boy as our official PAX 10 Game Of The Show, an honor only second to waking up alone at Sizzler during the lunch buffet. I had a chance to check the game out personally on a pair of headsets and the meaty sound effects alone are worth the ticket of admission. Congratulations to Team Meat! Some of our community members also named it their game of the show: check our Ryan's impressions.
We'd also like to recognize our nominees: our editors are some of the toughest to please in the industry, so if even a few of them can agree on a title's worth, it must be damn good. Here's our PAX Best of Show winners in no particular order:
Congratulations, everyone! As Jordan eloquently put it, PAX 10 was a big win for the small guys. It was no surprise to me when so many of our editor's votes came back with a few titles that rarely see the spotlight. The next Destructoid awards will be handed out soon as we gear up for the Tokyo Game Show, followed by our Game of the Year during the holidays while you're drunk with grandmother. I'm debating hosting that one at a boxing ring.
What was your game of the show?

That's my list, I may be a bit biased.
LOL, what a joke.
@bobyoko I think that they were only considering playable games on the actual show floor.
Although on the other hand... Portal 2, Duke Nukem, and MvC3 also did look pretty amazing. Cannot wait for them as well.
Too close to call.
I played the flash version of Meat Boy and loved it.
Please don't cry, we still can run for 2011 Game of the year, here have a hug.
I assume not because Rock Band 3 isn't on the list.
Nick, you gotta represent our kind.
But I'm really glad meat boy is as good as I had hoped that's a day one download for me, and I still can't believe Duke Nuke'em is coming out during my lifetime, it's astounding, it really is.
this is true bias.
Guild Wars 2 for me. Been waiting for three years, it's finally being shown off and everyone has nothing but positive things to say about it.
I tried to get in to play, but it seemed like everyone was hogging all the machines for hours and hours making overly-elaborate levels.
Sony was also selling the most adorable sackboys and were all sold out by the time I got to them. This made me really sad. The end.
My game(s) of the show was Ilomilo and Kirby.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
YOU FORGOT THEM, DIDN'T YOU?
