The Game Awards 2019 is rapidly approaching, and all eyes in the world of gaming are eagerly anticipating the results of the most prestigious game awards show in history. The Game of the Year 2019 race is tighter than ever, as Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, and the world of PC games all vie for the honor of being GOTY 2019. As we look back on the best games of 2019, and reminisce on all the amazing memories we made with the Game Awards nominees, whether on Playstation, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, or PC, it’s easy to remember a time before TGA 2019, when we didn’t have a videogame awards show that wasn’t extremely embarrassing.
From the original Cybermania ‘94 to the Spike Video Game Awards, or VGA, it wasn’t very long ago that that Game Awards shows were little more than a cringeworthy series of commercials. Geoff Keighley has worked hard to elevate The Game Awards to something gamers can be proud of, and as we await all the bombshell announcements and wait to see which of the Game Awards 2019 nominations win the gold, we can reflect on the long road that led us to the current Game Awards.

Jeeeeeeeeeesus at that Cybermania footage! I had no idea about it and I hated every nanosecond. We’ve truly come a long way. TGA aren’t perfect but nothing is really and Geoff you can tell is really giving it his absolute best.
I still get a chuckle from Madden winning the first VGA GOTY. For the longest time the VGAs, just like Cybermania, also ignored Japanese games for some stupid reason.
You should do a “how fan films saved Friday the 13th”
Honestly it is so frustrating the lack of respect videogames got in their early stage and even to this day. That is why I appreciate the Game Awards, it proves many of the pople who think that way wrong.
My personal pick for game of the year is Kingdom Hearts III, but of the actual nominees I hope Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is gonna win.
it's Ko-G-Ma but yeah
RED DEAD 2 SHOULD’VE WON LAST YEARS GAME OF THE YEAR AWARD just sayin...
What music yall got playing in the background?
Back in the g4tv days..

Whoa only 4 comments, I'm early
For all the good and the bad from the video game awards I will give it credit where credit it is do it did give us some interesting entertainment especially during the time of spike tv now am saying spike tv video games awards were all bad well not really there were some funny gags but yeah it was really cringeworthy at the best.
TBS both made the very weird Cyber mania 94 and the very awful Wipeout reboot
