Bioshock, Harmonix and Halo 3 dominated the Spike TV 2007 Video Game Awards.
At the 2007 Spike TV Video Game Awards (VGAs), the annual bevy of celebrities hit the stage to host, entertain and flaunt their C-list status to the hordes of gaming onlookers. Once again, Samuel L. Jackson hosted the event that also starred the Foo Fighters; Kid Rock; Dave Navarro; comedians Patton Oswalt, Ralphie May and Brian Posehn; wrestler Kurt Angle; and model Tila Tequila. Irrational Games’ Bioshock garnered the most praise from the ceremony, winning Game of the Year, Best Xbox 360 Game and Best Original Score. Harmonix also won a combined three awards for Rock Band and Studio of the Year.
