Hey, Congrats Worm God!

Hmm, interesting, I didnt even know this until I read the thread, heh. I am unsure just what an honor from SpikeTV means, but hey, it's apparently gamers that vote so that's good enough for me.

Thanks guys....

I found SpikeTV on Directv and watched the awards last night. Wow.... how embarrassing. Talk about some low budget, half-arse planning.

It was interesting watching the crowd gasp in awe as Oblivion beat out Gears of War for "Game of the Year" though. I thought there was going to be a riot.

Wow congrats!

I'm a bit jealous, what a cool job!

I wrote a text adventure with graphics for my TRS-80 back around 1981. I even made things move, My teacher was impressed! It wouldn't impress anyone now.

Games have come a loooooooooooong way!!!!
