How in the name of all that is good and holy does Dragon Age 2 get onto the Best RPG nominee list, whilst The Witcher 2 does not. These awards have no credibility to me.

My Predictions.
 
I haven't gotten around to playing most of the new games, but Witcher 2 and Portal 2 should both definitely win in at least one of the categories. Witcher 2 was just stunning and Portal 2's multiplayer was loads of fun. Haven't played the new Assassins Creed or Batman yet, but based on the previous games alone, I'll vote for both of them as well to win in at least one category.
For Best RPG, I'm yet to play Deus Ex (got it yesterday... didn't even know it is a RPG) and haven't tried Skyrim so I'll have to vote for DA2 which I'm busy with in my 2nd playthrough... Great game albeit a bit extreme.

And of course, most anticipated game for me would be Mass Effect 3. It has been since ME2.
 
how did the new NFS make it onto that list?the world hasnt even been exposed to it properly.
 
This has absolutely no credibility with BF3 not making it into the graphics category and the JUST RELEASED NFS The Run making into the best driving category.
 
Best Graphics

•Batman: Arkham City
•L.A. Noire
•RAGE (isnt this one questinable? Since it had the most graphical issues)
•Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception

Just a little this i picked up, and BF3 did does look amazing. So why hasnt it made the list.
 
Messed up VGA this year makes no sense some of those nominees. Almost as if some companys paid... looks at NFS.
