My Thoughts
Well, this looks like fun! I’m already a fan of awards shows, but make it about video games and I’m definitely tuning in. Check out the trailer below! I think I even caught a glimpse of my current Game of the Year, Karma: The Dark World (current because, well, it’s only May). I’ve really taken a liking to the indie games available on Steam lately. If you’re a fan of video games, especially on PC, this might be an event worth checking out!
