Voting For The 2011 Game Fanatics Awards Is Now Open

Advertise Here

The end of 2011 is approaching rather fast, and it has come to the point where all of the big video game releases are already out this year. Because of that I and the other staff of this great website have decided to host our own game awards, but here’s the thing we all have different opinions. We all have a certain game that we think should win the coveted game of the year award. It seriously took us 3 hours to even come to a consensus as to what games should be nominated in what categories. So we figured we’d narrow everything to 5 nominees and let our awesome readers cast their votes.

That’s right The Game Fanatics want’s you to decide the winners in each of our 32 categories, and you can do so by clicking this link here. We will tally up the votes and announce them within the coming days. Be sure to mention this to your friends or anyone that you know loves video games and wants to celebrate them.
