Spike Video Game Awards Has Some REALLY Unusual Categories

Spike is airing their Video Game Awards ceremony in a week. But there is something weird about their categories…

  • Best Performance By A Human Female
  • Best Performance By A Human Male
  • Best voice

What? Who performs in a Video game without voice-acting? They must mean the in-game characters.

Congrats to Megan Fox and Trica Helfer to be nominated!

Wait a minute….
