They seem to have spread the awards around pretty well. You might not agree with the winners themselves but it seems like they tried to deliberately spread the love around so one game or console was winning everything. Still puzzled that neither Far Cry 2 nor Crysis Warhead was even nominated for Best Graphics, though. The Big Name in the Game Female/Male awards just seem like a lame attempt to bait celebrities to the awards, too.
