The Hidden Mechanics of Game Awards

If you like us, "Send some love or hate". We'll work with it either way.In this episode of the Fighting Game Banter Podcast, We discusses the complexities of game awards, especially those that focus on fighting games. We go into the voting mechanics behind major awards, the historical context of fighting game recognition, and the ongoing challenges in classifying what constitutes a fighting game. But it all boils down to the importance of community engagement and encouraging the FGC to create their own award shows to celebrate the fighting game genre.We contacted The Game Awards, The NAVGRT Awards, and DashFight.
