And if you check out the nominees under "Game Designer" you'll find none other than our very own Gabe Newell! Let's hope he wins.

gabe is cool

He didn't actually have all that much to do with HL2. For most of the development time he distanced himself and focused on Steam.

just remember: without gabe, no valve, no half-life, no half-life²

:cheers: GO GABE!!! ^^

Gabe gave 150 million dollars towards HL2 as well

I think he deserves it. Not only is he a nice guy but he produced one hell of a game. Congrats to him.

Hope the award is a golden crowbar

Hopefully, he should win.

Is it one from each category? Because comparing Architects and Game Designers and Musicians seems a bit weird to me. And plus

_Trey Parker and Matt Stone
Team America: World Police

_Quentin Tarantino
Kill Bill Vol. 2

Which means poor Gabe has no chance if its all of them. Just out of Game Designers hes got a pretty good chance, only big rival would be Halo 2. Or CoH, that seems pretty popular imo.

 

[Hazar]

Wheee.

Go Gabe

No matter how much I would love to give this award to Gabe... There is one thing that outbids Starcraft, Half-Life, Half-Life 2, & everything else.
