2008 Golden Joysticks

It’s that time again. The time to vote for the games you love and still love to play. That’s right, voting has opened for the 26th Golden Joystick Awards. This is one of the prestigious awards that game companies and developers can get. So hook them up if you love their games. Show them some love by voting. They make things you love, so return the love by showing you appreciation.

You can vote daily by the way. Doing so also enters you into a sweepstakes on the site as well. They’ve got Wiis and 360s up for grabs, as well as a few other prizes as well. What better thing could there be for this. Show your love to the developers and win prizes at the same time. I’ve voted and will continue to. I recommend every one else does as well. Unless you are a card carrying commie. Are ya? Huh?
