Most people could care less about awards, especially within the video game community. Every little piece of news, every rumour is picked over so much that by the time a game releases, everybody is pretty sure whether it's good or not. People don't like awards, but they love discounts, and the Gamers' Choice Awards 2012 lead to discounts.
All of the games in the image above will receive a 30% discount on the PlayStation store, 50% if you're a PS+ subscriber. The awards were voted on by users in the US and these deals won't be available to anybody else, not exactly a surprise but definitely a reason to envy.
And if you can't read the image (some are a little blurry), the winners are:
- Best PSN Exclusive: inFAMOUS Festival of Blood (PS3)
- Best PSN Game: Resident Evil 4 (PS3)
