The 3rd Annual Chatterbox Awards - the results

One of the greatest achievements of the Guardian Gamesblog is the creation and maintenance of the most entertaining, welcoming and knowledgeable videogame community on the web. I'm talking, of course, about Chatterbox, our daily discussion post, where talk of Modern Warfare, PES and Dwarf Fortress segues seamlessly into epic diatribes concerning the best sauce brands, heated arguments over the most effective ways to cook meat products and, that perennial favourite, ineffective relationship advice. The Chatterbox has its own stars, its own villains and its own desperate minds in very serious and immediate need of medical intervention - and all of these are celebrated every year at the star-studded Chatterbox Awards. This year's event took place on Saturday night at the exclusive Dog and Duck pub in West London. 14 awards were handed out by glamorous compere, Limni, and celebrations went on into the early hours. Or last orders. If you weren't there, and have missed all the subsequent Chatterbox coverage, here are the winners! You can also watch some authentically shaky footage here . Well done every one - especially me.
