The American VGX show (formerly Spike Video Game Awards or simply VGA) is a kind of Oscar of the world of video games. Only the best game projects get the right to compete for this prestigious award. On the red carpet VGX you can see famous movie stars, famous musicians, as well as the best game designers on the planet. And all this will happen in just a few days, and specifically - on December 7th.


The VGX show in 2003 organized the Spike TV channel. Since then, this award has become an annual and today is perhaps the most serious and prestigious in the world of video games. In addition to directly announcing the nominees for the victory, as well as awarding the prizes to the winners, you can still see a lot of interesting things in the framework of this show.

As a rule, in the intervals between awards, viewers are shown by world premieres of games for various platforms, which makes the show especially attractive to those who like to keep abreast of the news. It was during this show that such games as Mass Effect 3, The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, Portal 2, Bioshock Infinite, The Last of Us, Uncharted 3 and many, many others were first shown.

At one time, Linkin Park, The Doors, 50 Cent, Sum 41 and many others played on the VGX stage. We can assume that the 2013 show will not be an exception, and we will see quite a few celebrities.
