Win t-shirts with the Ready-Up.net 2008 game awards

We're giving away 10 free t-shirts in association with those lovely people over at Ready-UP.net, and all you have to do to enter is vote for your favorite games of 2008!

A lot has happened in the world of gaming in 2008, with some of the most eagerly anticipated sequels of all time, as well as some surprise new innovations and a few instant classics.

Our friends at Ready-Up are interested to know what you think, and have set up the 2008 Game Awards to celebrate such an awesome year in gaming.

The nominees are in and voting has already begun, with winners announced in two weeks - So get on over to the site and VOTE NOW! You'll help to pick out the best titles of 2008, and 10 lucky winners will receive a free RetroGT t-shirt too.

Over here at RetroGT, we like to keep things pretty old skool, and we weren't disappointed this year with the truly awesome Street Fighter IV, and of course the beautiful update of 'Super Street Fighter 2 HD Remix' - a mouthful to say and a joy to play

We've also been knocked out this year by some of the new downloadable titles that put the emphasis back on gameplay over graphics - just like it was in the old days.

Video games have come a long way since Spacewar and Pong, and with the current generation of consoles offering online gameplay, downloadable content and faithful updates of the old classics, there's really never been a better time to be a gamer.

All in all things are good. We feel.
