Joining me for this event is Benjamin Gilbert and Xav de Matos. I'm not entirely sure they've covered a gaming awards show before, so I wholly expect one of them to be broken by the end of the proceedings. Kevin, our fairly seasoned veteran, is on the show floor, giving us first-hand scoops. Jump past the break to follow our coverage, and make sure to leave a comment with your own clever, possibly even pithy observations.
Watch: The 2009 Spike TV Video Game Awards
Our on-the-scene reporter Kevin Kelly just snapped this picture -- apparently, Christmas came early to the VGAs. We're guessing that's the big early surprise.
