Default Spike TV Announces Nominees for VGAs

SpikeTV released they VGA nominees. I know it's probably not the most credible awards for games, but it is the most mainstream. That being said, I think their list is a step up from their previous ones, and they seem to be taking this a little more seriously now. What do you think of the list? Who do you think will win? Who do you WANT to win?

Halo 3 "Breakthrough Tech" ?

You've got to be kidding. These awards are jokes. I won't even bother pointing out how dumb many of the others are.

Good to see that Game of the Year and Best Shooter categories are nearly identical. And is there really such a thing as the Best game based on a movie or TV show?

Was about to post this. I could go on and on and point out faults with these nominations but I'm not going to because it wouldn't be worth my time. Who the hell is Spike TV anyway?
