Anyway, I just thought I'd bring this to your attention after seeing an ad for it in some console mag I bought a few days ago; I first heard about the Joysticks a few years ago but I never voted, and so this year I thought it'd be an opportunity to rave about my favourite games. I suppose I'm just curious to see what you have/will be voting for; to find out everyone's gaming highlights of the year. Below are my submitted nominations.The Golden Joystick Awards are officially the world's favourite video games ceremony, originally debuting back in 1982, when Atari, Commodore and Spectrum ruled the earth! Bigger than ever, the Golden Joystick Awards 2006 will feature 17 different award categories, and are the only awards voted for by those who matter - gamers.
Attracting over 200,000 votes last year, the Golden Joystick Awards give gamers - without the intervention of special panels or industry bigwigs - a chance to say who wins a prestigious Golden Joystick.
