The Average Gamer

Nominated for a GMA, Again!

Games Media Awards Logo 2013Hey, did you hear? We’ve been shortlisted for the Games Blog Games Media Award again this year. Woooo! Thank you very much to all my writers for creating such great articles and thanks to you readers as well, who keep coming back and occasionally even comment back to us so we know our words aren’t disappearing into thin air ;)

The awards themselves will be held on 10th October. This year it’s judged by a panel comprising exclusively of journalists so we’ve got just over two months to prove ourselves worthy to our peers. Eep!

Here’s the full list of award nominations. Go check out the competition. Tell me who’s better than us so I can kill them. Wait, no. That will just make them into martyrs. Just… tell me, so I know how to up my game, yeah?
