Gamecock’s really doing their part to earn their name lately. Last month, they ditched the Philadelphia VGXPO last minute, leaving a giant empty space in the middle of the convention center. This week, they decided to crash Spike TV’s Video Game Awards during the Game of the Year presentation, which was being accepted by Ken Levine for BioShock.

They have since issued a formal apology for the incident, stating that "the award acceptance they interrupted was the LAST one we would have wanted to interrupt, as we have the utmost respect and love for BioShock and all who were involved in it, and it totally sucks that Ken Levine didn't get to speak after making such a fantastic game."

Since I’ve also named BioShock among my games of the year, I have to say I agree. However, it’s not like anyone was taking the VGAs seriously up until that point anyway. We are talking about an awards ceremony for video games that makes up categories so it can give awards to Halo 3 and has the winning games painted on naked women. I doubt that many serious gamers were even tuned in until the end of the show anyway. Still, Gamecock was out of line, and their prank wasn’t even funny. Maybe next time they’ll find a way to garner attention without it being negative.
