For the Gamer Escapees that didn’t know, Spike TVs Video Game Awards – otherwise VGx – was held over this past weekend on Saturday December 7th, 2013. It was quite the show, with several trailers and over a dozen awards given, some of which were completely surprise announcements, such as the Game of Thrones game by TellTale and No Man’s Sky. If you missed it, have no fear! You can find much of the juicy bits right here on Gamer Escape.
