Golden Joystick Awards Break Voting Record!
The Golden Joystick Awards are officially the world’s oldest and most respected gaming awards show and have taken place since 1982, when Sony was famous for the Walkman and the Commodore 64 was a mere infant! This year, the awards are announced at a glitzy award ceremony on Friday, 27th October at the Park Lane Hilton, London and for the first time, will be streamed live at www.computerandvideogames.com.
Smashing organisers’ expectations – almost 400,000 votes have already been received across 17 award categories, almost doubling last year’s total. With voting open until Friday, 12th October – there are still no clear winners, with potential receivers of the time-honoured Golden Joysticks changing on an hourly basis.
For the first time in living memory, a handheld game could potentially scoop “Ultimate Game of the Year” with New Super Mario Brothers leading the charge. Axe-fans are backing Red Octane’s Guitar Heroes to win the “Innovation Award”, whilst Halo 3 is out in front in the “One to Watch” category, surprisingly beating both the Nintendo Wii and Sony PlayStation 3.
