Games Media Awards 2009 – liveblog at 8pm BST tonight

Ooohhhh

Good luck. I’ve got my fingers crossed for you.

See you there Pat. I’m going to kick off if you don’t win. Quietly and at the back so I don’t cause a scene though, obviously.

Good luck! Remember, regardless of whether you win something this time or not, you are still winners in our eyes (or our browsers)!

Good luck. This really is my absolute fave website, hope you win it.

Good luck everyone. This is a terrific site, and you deserve something!

Thanks, chaps. I really do hope we win something.

Good Luck.

I’d be amazed if you didn’t win best blog, really I would.

Good luck! Do a barrel roll!
I’m stuck in starfox now (fnar)

I’ll be there. Can you mention me? I like the attention, obviously.

Good luck Pat & co.

After the Uncharted 2 competition yesterday – VG247 has to be a frontrunner for the ‘Most drivel in a comment thread’ award

You really deserve all the awards at the show, expect the award for best podcast. Have you dropped the podcast or have you just skipped a few weeks.

I really appreciate you hard work with VG247.

Good luck folks.

Good Luck. You deserve it

Best of luck.
Who knows Psycho might win the Daily Star award for best post.

Yo Eurogamer, I’m real happy for you, and I’mma let you finish, but VG247 is one of the best videogaming blogs of all time. Of all time!

the gaming media should not get any awards they lie too much. If you mean the gaming Industry now I agree that they should get a award.

Congratulations for the nominations pat!

When you go, wear a cape and ask everyone to call you patman so I’ll have an excuse to keep making my patphone joke.”

DO IT!

Nice-hope you do well guys. I love this blog. You and N4G

I nominated you for Games Industry Legend as well, but they must have thought the chance of you winning everything was too high…

if vg247 is up there they should get an award one of better gaming media out there.

If it’s the gaming media as whole no they not should get it all.

if it’s the gaming industry yea maybe.

I have come to respect vg247 site. My only beef they don’t track hardware companies for pc gaming.

I would recomend it to pc gamers

odds are you’ll win Best game website. If it wasn’t then I wouldn’t post here so good luck.

Well that’s a ringing endorsement, TEA.

Pat, I think it’s time to lower your standards

Voted for you fellas, see you at the bar.

As soon as Joystiq got rid of ps3fanboy.com gaming sites have been spiraling to their deaths. The only site that has been like a real home away from gaming is this one.

I factor it being the small number staff of writers, interesting funny comments, catchy headlines, well diverse set of fanboys, and psychotext.

Good luck Pat! I’m rooting for you!

@theevilaires: Very nice of you to say so! I had a great time writing for PS3Fanboy back in the day. I hope you’ll check out the European PlayStation Blog from time to time, too — I’m trying my best to make that a real “home away from gaming” for all PlayStation fans.

Well Jem Alexander you just got yourself a new subscriber. The only problem I have with the PlayStation Blogs are that the members are hardcore elite Sony soldiers. So every thing feels one sided even when Sony does or say something stupid. The European isn’t that bad but OMG the North American site, forget about it .

Joystiq’s fanboy sites were great and to this day I don’t know why they got rid of the names. But for now this place is like a secret garden of roses in the woods. It has just the right amount of fanboys, hardcore, and casual gamers to make it enjoyable every click.

P.S.thanks for spelling my name out

Good luck, your the best!

Stephany and I are going to drink some Scotch and flick her bobble head around to simulate the pain of her not getting nominated.

(That didn’t sound right either, Jesus I can’t win.)

Go team VG247!!!

Do it for the kids, Pat.

This site is the best website I’ve come across for gaming news, Cheers for all your hard work. Hope you win something
P.S. just joined.

Good luck VG247 Team!

P.S. Is the liveblog working for anyone? I just have the blank ScribbleLive box… no updates! – It is past 8pm BST right? or have I some how muddled up time zones again?

EDIT: Ahh I just saw the first update appear… I guess I’m too impatient!

SUPER PAT! DUH DA DAH!

Elpha, I am gonna get a bobblehead made of me just for you! What kind of scotch are we drinking?

Careful Pat, if you have to go accept an award someone might pinch your laptop :p

Fingers crossed!

Hi Johnny, Hi Rupert, Hi Ellie.

*waves*

This is what Pat *must* do if/when he wins!! http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/sports/thetoydepartment/TigerWoods.jpg

Pat: find Adam Doree and spill a drink on his lap. Then, when he stands up, slap him on the arse.

Good luck with them awards

Thanks to Syrok: http://img517.yfrog.com/img517/6117/qdz.jpg

This is crucial: are they playing The Headmaster Ritual?

Ahahahaha, this is the best liveblog ever!

/facepalm on the comedy there FFS

Glenlivet I suppose unless you like blended. Seriously, why aren’t you up for awards Steph, you’ve had some excellent articles this year. Women just don’t get the credit they deserve in the big pecs, big tits, big guns arena of internet gaming journalism these days. Go figure.

…and go Nunneley bobble head figure!

Nunneley bobble head now comes complete with html scripting expertise and looked over journalism excellence frown.

Boo him off stage.

@Elfa – well, I am not European for one thing

But thanks! You just made my day. Also, Glenlivet sounds fantastic! Good taste there

Well, you don’t have to be European to enjoy good single malt Steph and you seem like you’d have good taste in liquor to match the rye wit of working in a male dominated, ball smell filled field like this. Just keep going, they’ll smarten up someday…

…or else you’ll have a psychotic episode and streak the Game Media awards in 2010. Either way, I’m there. j/k <3

*Squeal!!!*

GRATS!

I thought the few minutes of silence meant you had won and ran off!

Holy shit, WE WON.

Oh, I am so telling my mom.

Hurray! Good job guys!
