Hello Community!

Q: What are the Community and Game Awards?
A: The Community and Game Awards are your chance to highlight the greatest games, services, content and community activity of 2010. Think of it as the BAFTA’s of the PlayStation Community, only voted for entirely by you.
Q: How do the awards work?
A: There are two stages to both the Community and Game Awards.
In the first stage of the Community and Game Awards, anyone with a PSN account may make a nomination for an award. There are no restrictions here, you can nominate anything you like as long as it is relevant to the award you are making the nomination for. For example, you could nominate FIFA 11, ModNation Racers or God of War 3 for PS3 Game of the Year 2010, but you couldn't nominate God of War: Ghost of Sparta - it's a PSP game.
In the second stage, the Community and Game Awards work a little differently. For the Community Awards, the nominations made for each award are counted and the top ten nominations go through to the voting stage as finalists.
For the second stage of the Game Awards, the nominations for each award are counted up from all the language groups in the Official PlayStation Community and the top ten nominees for each award go through to the final voting stage.
Finally, community members vote for their favourite finalist under each award and once voting is complete. a winner is announced.
