    The Golden Joystick Awards invites the public to pick its favorite game and gaming hardware of all time.

    FULL STORY ======================================================================

    The Golden Joystick Awards is celebrating 50 years of video games this year and is set to answer the age-old question: which game is the greatest of all time?

    The prestigious awards show, which is presented by GamesRadar+ , will pit the likes of Halo: Combat Evolved , Grand Theft Auto V , and Super Mario 64 against each other in a fight to see who will be crowned the Ultimate Game of All Time by the public.

    But its not just video games whose fate will be determined by the voting public. The Golden Joystick Awards will also decide what the Best Gaming Hardware of All Time is, and includes the Atari 2600, Wii, and Xbox 360 to name but a few.

    There are 20 nominees in each category, and while not everyones favorite will have made the cut, its an impressive list of games and hardware that is bound to split opinion. (Im going for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and the Sega Dreamcast.)

    Voting has now opened and closes at 3 pm PST / 6 pm EST / 11 pm GMT on
    Friday, November 12, so dont miss your chance to register your vote for your all-time favorite. If youre sick of The Last of Us winning every award under the sun or feel like the Nintendo GameCube was ahead of its time, your vote could make the difference.

    We are delighted to celebrate 50 Years of Games in a landmark moment for the gaming industry, said Daniel Dawkins, Futures content director for games. In November 1971, Computer Space became the worlds first commercially playable arcade machine, birthing a $150bn industry from a 10-cent coin. Were celebrating this milestone by inviting the public to vote for their Ultimate Game of All Time and Best Gaming Hardware of All Time.

    The public vote winners will be revealed on November 23 via an online broadcast, and the event will also feature over 20 awards for the best games of 2021, including Ultimate Game of the Year and Studio of the Year.
