Spike VGA’s - Painted Girls
It was pretty clever of Spike to resort to the fancy painted girl trick in order to wow the crowd. That’s much better than keeping it about the games I say and it always works. Who wants it just about games anyway right?
How many of you watched the Spike Video Game Awards? I love Samuel Jackson but these awards do no justice to video games. However, there were painted girls and I guess that makes it all better. In fact, it was the best part about the show. Rainbow Six Vegas 2? Meh. Kid Rock? Double Meh. That doesn’t say much about the show I know but at least there were painted girls. I have a sudden urge to play Rock Band, don’t you? Click here for the video of the painted VGA girls.

gamers don’t decide the awards nor what happens during the show lol. but i agree with you Jokar, it has to target a much different audience. this is TV ya know. it has to add the fluff etc like these painted girls
@Cleric, i’m trying to do my best haha

I think I watched last year’s Spike video game awards. It was alright. I missed this year’s awards though.

[...] weekend didn’t bring any new movies. I passed on the Golden Compass but I did get to see some painted girls and I guess that’s always a treat. This is the first Monday of my Heroes withdrawal. [...]

Gripman they play the awards about 100 times more, but for your own mental health I wouldn’t advise watching it.
I really would like to find the people watching this and slap them, the VGAs are trash. The celebrities pretending to be gamers are painfully poor at pretending, did you hear EA’s speech while excepting Madden!? Garbage is what they are, Deaconblade you are completely right, it’s like watching an incredibly long and awkward advertisement.

yep that’s what happens Intangible when your audience are the advertisers. the games, gamers are a distant last place. does anyone think Samuel Jackson when thinking of video games? how many classic games has Samuel Jackson done the voice work for?
not to mention Spike TV (an MTV Network) gives Rock Band (an MTV game) the win in both musical categories…and Harmonix studio of the year. that’s probably not an accident lol

Deac, Geoff was on Major’s show and said that all awards are determined by the gaming sites and gaming journalists like himself. So in a way they do decide what happens during the show…except for that god awful music…and a few other things.

and you believe Geoff? lol they’re determined by Spike, MTV affiliates, and other totally clueless people like Geoff himself lol.
IGN had no say, Gamespot had no say, 1UP had no say. so i’d be interested to see a list of these “gaming sites/journalists” lol

I watched two parts of the show on YouTube and was already sick by how everything was presented. The ads are so annoying, and so was the guy reading them.
“How will you ever be able to face your friends or family again?”
Yeah, stfu.
