Hundreds of thousands of votes were cast, and the results are in: Game Informer Online is bigger than the Beatles. Not really but at least we beat out The Beatles: Rock Band in the Webby Awards’ People’s Voice Awards category. We were one of five nominees in the games-related category, up against BioShock 2, The Beatles: Rock Band’s sites, GameFly and Guitar Hero’s global franchise hub. The Beatles: Rock Band won in the judged category.

The awards, now in their 14th year, will be handed out in a ceremony in New York City hosted by the Office’s B.J. Novak. Roger Ebert will be honored at the ceremony as the Webby Person of the Year. I wonder what that guy thinks about video games?

Thanks to all who voted and supported us through clicking in and voting. We couldn’t have done it without you! You proved how awesome the Game Informer community really is.

Congrats guys! We should all celebrate with cake, and party hats, and hookers and blackjack. Actually forget the party hats and cake.

Yes!
by Matthew B Tuesday, May 04, 2010 at 11:09 AM

YEAH!!! If you hadn't won it would have been very sad.
by Ghostpig Tuesday, May 04, 2010 at 11:18 AM

Party, party! Join us, join us!

I will personally celebrate this victory by going to get lunch. Will it be Wendy's? Subway? Sushi from Yujin? Maybe get a salad from Winn Dixie? Who knows? It's a party! A really lame lunch party with only me attending. Yay. Woo. Whoopee.

Can someone spot me a Zoloft?

ADDENDUM:(Read this in Eeyore's voice for proper emotion) Winn Dixie doesn't have a salad bar. Had to get a roast beef sandwich from the deli. And a small bag of Cheetos. Congratulations, GI. I bet your grocery store has a salad bar.
