"The Game Awards really need to have a hype man."
In this weeks episode we celebrate the Game Awards for over 49 of UFO Soft titles. Using the well defined categories from Geoff Keighleys much smaller award show, we select winners for such awards as Best Ongoing Game, Most Anticipated Game, and Game of the Year using only the games from UFO50. We even create some categories of our own. What games could win Best Golf Game? More than you'd think!
