What the fuck are they thinking with some of these games nominated?! CoD 7:Blops, NFS:HP, Halo 4, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Dance Central and the annual Fifa?! Christ. :fail:
Since it's decided by user votes, it's even more meaningless. The most popular game will win, so likely CoD7 or Halo 4. Bleh, talk about completely lacking credibility. I'd expect popularism shit like this from the Spike VGAs, but from the BAFTAS?! Fail.
EDIT:-
Oh I see, it's sponsored by GAME, more or less the UK equivalent to retailer chain Gamestop. Haha, one more reason to not take it seriously.

Check out the 2009 nominations. Guess who won?
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

....Are there actually game award shows you can take seriously? It's like reality TV, you don't need to know the details to know it's going to suck.

The BAFTA award for PC Game of 2000 was awarded to Deus Ex. It would be sad if the award was given to some real piece of shit now, as it would sorta weaken DX's win.
That said I don't think there are any real piece's of shit among the nominees. Truth be told I've only played 3 of them but I've heard nothing but good things about the rest even if some of them aren't my cup of tea. What game, exactly, does TTLG feel should win the award? Bear in mind that Minecraft isn't out of beta yet so there's no way that'd get nominated.

Yeah, Lemmings is casual bullshit, and the name is quite appropriate, considering all the ignorant assholes who bought into that hype machine. Best game of '91? My ass it was. It wasn't even a game. It was a goddamn sheeple simulator.
What the fuck was RPS thinking when they included it on their worthless "best of" (notice the quotation marks) list. Hell, were they thinking? I don't think they were.

ITT: People getting agitated about lists that absolutely don't matter.

A list like that without Master of Magic or Star Control 2 on it is a list without merit. :tsktsk:

The RPS list is pretty kickass. I was mentally high-fiving it's authors on every other pick. :D
