Spike Video Game Awards

entinen videopelialan palkintogaala

Spike Video Game Awards (lyhenne VGA) oli SpikeTV:n isännöimä palkintogaala, joka valitsi vuoden parhaat tietokone- ja videopelit. Tapahtuma keräsi ensimmäisellä järjestämiskerrallaan vuonna 2003 paljon huomiota, sillä videopelipalkinnot eivät olleet yleisiä ennen Spike TV:n esimerkkiä.lähde? Showtapahtuma sisältää muun muassa musiikkiesityksiä ja tulevien videopelien ennakkotrailereita. Ohjelman tuottaa Geoff Keighley ja juontaa usein Samuel L. Jackson. VGA on järjestetty vaihtelevissa kohteissa, kuten Los Angelesissa ja Las Vegasissa. Palkinto nimettiin VGX viimeisenä vuotenaan.[1]

Voittajat on valittu tekstiviestiäänestyksellä.[2]

Palkinnon on vuodesta 2014 korvannut The Game Awards jossa Spike TV ei ole enää mukana.[3][4]

2013 tapahtuma nimettiin VGX ja järjestettiin 7. joulukuuta 2013.[5][6]
