Right after reading through the replies I got on the forums & via twitter etc, here are the Categories for the MLG end of year awards.

 

Please copy paste the sheet and submit one nomination for each category, if selecting other please state the game etc. You can either submit your votes here, or PM them to me if you prefer some privacy.

I'll be leaving voting open for a few days, then putting the winners up on the front page. I'll also be including some of the best alternative awards from the thread, so if anyone wants to add a few more for consideration go for it.

Only a few from this part time gamer!

 

Best Sound

Has to be Dead Space 2. Those high pitched screams are like nails down a blackboard!

Special mention to Battlefield 3 for an incredible immersive sound stage.

 

Best Male

Wheatley (Portal 2) "Push A to talk". Genius. LMFAO.

He made the game to be honest.

 

Best Online

Has to be Gears of War 3, purley basded on how robust and reliable it is. Rock Solid.

Battlefield 3 is an amazing game online with an incredibly varied suite of gameplay to suit many players….but early teething trouble and limitations for large scale community functionality hamper its potential.

 

Best Innovation

L.A. Noir Motion Tracking. It has to be seen to be believed just how good this is.

It somehow manages to break the "Uncanny Valley" theory with incredibe performances from the majority of the cast.

 

Most Anticipated Game of 2012

SSX Deadly Descent.

Really enjoyed their previous titles and the last time I played a fun snowboarding game was Amped3 back in the early days of the 360 (still a great game…maybe a game of the month one day?).

 

Special mention of 2011

The Midlife Gamer Eurogamer Weekend.

What an incredible time we all had. To think that so many people went to such lengths to make it such a memorable occassion. Not even in our wildest dreams did we expect such an amazing coming together of like minded, friendly and selfless gamers. Truely awe inspiring on every level. The spectacular amount of money rasied for GamesAid charity was the cherry on top of what for me was THE gaming event of 2011.

(Later this year we hope to visit some of the peoples lives we helped change with the funds we raised)

GOTY was done by Greg, If you want to give a special shout out to a title, create a category in the Alternative Awards thread and it may be featured too

I'll leave voting open for at least another 24hours, maybe longer depending on my work schedule so tell your friends to keep voting
