I doubt D watches Spike tv..

I watch it mainly for TNA Wrestling (on Thursday nights).
That's about it for me and Spike TV, pretty much.

I would've watched it last nite....but I actually forgot....

Yet if you took note on all the years you've been here, you wouldn't be posting this.

But here you are, totally oblivious to this fact, doing it again.

Was Borderlands nominated for 360 game of the year? I wouldn't think so, since it's a cross platform game. Left 4 Dead 2 is console exclusive to the 360.



I watched it, sort of live. (Tivo'd it, and had it paused for about 2 hours before I could finish watching) Too much Snoop Dog and bad transition music. There was a weird mix of celebrities and nerdy game devs with zero public speaking skills. I'm shocked that DJ Hero won best soundtrack over Brutal Legend. Is metal dead? And Hugh Jackman as Wolverine for best human male actor...

Those awards are a joke.  Utterly meaningless.  It's all marketing.

Best human male actor? That sounds so odd.

Especially when there is no "Best performance by a non-human male" category.

Well that would go to claptrap of course.
