I've never watched the other awards because I never know when they're on or know where to watch them. They haven't really advertised them, they just happen one day and then outlets start talking about them in the past tense.

Isn't that the sad part about gaming media/journalism. They are all for banking on the drama about "no appreciation for the devs from the vgas" but chances are their front pages are filled to the brim with things announced during the VGAs. While they do nothing to really highlight the actual meaningful award shows for game developers.
