NEW YORK - Spike TV — "the first network for men" — will hold its inaugural Video Game Awards show in Las Vegas next month, with actor-comedian David Spade (news) as host.
The show at the MGM Grand Garden Arena will premiere on Spike TV on Dec. 4 (9 p.m. EST).
"The VGAs celebrate those games that have blistered our fingers poised on the joystick and kept us up all night," Albie Hecht, president of Spike TV, said in a statement Monday.
"We're throwing out all the boring and stagnant elements of traditional awards shows and focusing on what matters — the characters, game play, animation, music and performances that have made an impact on the video game community throughout the past year."
Awards will be presented in 16 categories, including game of the year, best online game and best game based on a movie.
Gaming industry experts, public opinion via Spike TV's Web site and the network's editorial board will determine the winners.
