https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Dh-RL__uN4The special guests are arriving! Ready for their big night! And for those who are wondering why the forks are plastic. We sunk all of our money into our special guest host. So without further deliberation, Here to present the 1st award of the night for Gamer of the Year... Pop Icon.... Ariana Grande!! We were only able to pay her for 5 mintues but that's longer than her last relationship Jk Ariana Grande - *Reading off a teleprompter* "Before we get into the games, we must first aknowledge the icons that transform the landscape of gaming culture. These people much like most of the audience tonight are gaming purists who are the ones at the healms and although we are going to honor the iconic devlopers and games we must first go over the gamers themselves. The ones behind the joysticks who not only shape the market but entertain millions redifining what gaming can be. Gaming is more than just a hobby, it's a passion, a culture, and a career path for many inspiring hopeful fans. Here are the people who take their gaming to the grand stage and have a unwavering passion for gaming entertainment."

Metal Jesus RocksYeah...
Talk about an illustrious lineup of icons. The controversial face of youtube, the very attractive twitch streamers of the modern generation and 2 legends in the retro space who have been captivating us for almost a decade. And metal jesus rocks. The shigeru Miyamoto cutout couldn't make it today, we were too broke for expedited shipping. But we are still going strong ladies and gents. Lovely evening thus far. You are all looking incredible tonight. . For our next award, we look at the bad before we get into the good of today's show. The universal category of throwing shade at the worst of the worst for giving us a bad or unfinished product until such time arrises that we get a seize and desist order from Sony . These following companies and devs while might be acclaimed and respected, this year spawned a lot of bad decisions, bad marketings and poor products from ideas that we long awaited and were extremely let down after the release. Here are your nominees for biggest failure of 2018. Biggest Failure of 2018Playstation Classic Edition100 dollars for 15 underwhelming Pal ports that are buggy in one of the less appealing UIs ever, and a pretty dissapointing list of games with much left out in just a desperate attempt to copy Nintendo's success without putting in the proper work. In a year of Sony victories comes a big huge smudge. A lot of fans were let down
Fallout 76 A game that released very buggy, broken and borderline unplayable. One of the biggest let downs and unfinished games released in 2018. But I do hear they are patching it and it's good now.
Battlefield VOne of the most disliked video game trailers in history due to it's disrespectful historical inacuracies, EA's pay to win formula and various pandering moments although very controversial as many disagree with the backlash. I personally don't mind the inclusive nature of the game
1up ArcadesCited as having very bad durability issues, clunky controls and poor ports. These budget arcades are best left on the store shelves.
Diablo ImmortalThe memeness of this failure has entered holy regions of memedom. The presentation was golden and gamers loathe Diablo Immortal. A mobile disaster that nobody was expecting nor wanted.
Donald Trump just tweeted about the event guys! We've officially made it to mainstream media outlets! TMZ is even picking it up. We might be able to keep the lights on until the end of the show With that I digress to our next two categories. Categories packed with amazing talent. The category for Male and Female Character of the year! Male Character of the YearKratosVideo Game Papi
Arthur MorganHorses
Spider Man (Peter Parker) Joseph SeedPraise Jeebus
Female Character of the YearMJ (Spiderman) BowsetteClementineFaith SeedWitch Lady from God Of WarEvan Tildrum (Nino Kuni) Lara CroftWhat a tough choice to make with those 2 categories. You got a freaking demi god and a super hero going up against a Red Neck but somehow Arthur Morgan is still cooler
Our next category is a chance to pull out your snapchat and take care of whatever social media you need to, no need to watch. It's time for the rough rugged, slamming and bamming, ball throwing, bat smacking action we come to love from the sports games of the modern era. It's time we run the category for BEST SPORTS GAME.Sports Game of The YearMario Tennis AcesMadden 19NBA 2K19MLB The Show 19Fifa 19Ok everyone, sorry for the boring category as I know many of you don't like sports. Refreshments are being served. We went heavy on the booze so some of you may get drunk enough to think this show is good and not click off for hentai.

Wait a minute.... Who's that charging the stage? Sorry about that everyone . We paid Pat the Nes punk 4,000 dollars to guard that door so Kanye West couldn't theoretically get in. But he clearly didn't put much effort into it. Kinda like his content. Arthur Morgan has been crushed and is crying in the makeup room. If anyone can go console him. Maybe Kratos. That'd be swell. But with that said, we move on to the category us collectors will revere. The eye candy of the console world . As collectors we love to indulge on consoles that not only have limited print runs but also have the glorious paint schemes to shiny among other consoles on our shelves.
