"Sooo... the VGAs kinda got it right this year"

This is a good look for Journey. Fuck the Walking Dead, tho. That is NOT a good game, and I mean both the "good" and the "game" part.

Spike VGA 2012 winners: Walking Dead takes GOTY, Journey floats away with a few awards

This year's Spike Video Game Awards just concluded and in between the Samuel L. Jackson skits and Black Ops 2 commercials, some awards were given to this year's standouts. The Walking Dead won a few, shuffling away from VGA 2012 with the Game of the Year award and Best Downloadable Game, Best Adapted Game. Telltale Games also won Studio of the Year.

Journey had the most nominations this year and won Best PS3 Game, Best Original Score and Best Independent Game. Best Xbox 360 Game went to Halo 4, while Best PC Game went to XCOM: Enemy Unknown. You may have missed that last one because it wasn't in the actual show.

Borderlands 2 also snagged a few: Best Shooter and Best Multiplayer Game. Dishonored ended up being awarded with Best Action Adventure Game.
