Though we're bummed that Engadget didn't engage in a little incest and create a "Best Gaming Blog" category just for us, the 26-category span of the 2005 Engadget Awards is otherwise comprehensive and fun to read.
There's plenty here for gamers. Engadget picked the Xbox 360 as the Gadget of the Year, though their readers--whom we must assume have too little gaming joy in their lives--chose the Apple iPod. Engaget picked yet another gaming device as the Worst Gadget of the Year. It shouldn't take any of you two guesses to nail that one, especially after this hint: it starts with "Gizm" (that's a hard G sound, not a soft one) and ends with a Homeric, forehead-slapping "do."
