Lots of sites and magazines will tell you what they thought the best stuff at E3 was. Heck, we did! But only one set of awards are the result of the biggest outlets joining forces.

And those are the Game Critics Awards. Voted on by editors from 29 publications, ranging from IGN to GameStop to 1UP to...Kotaku, they're normally viewed - courtesy of that combined power - as the definitive list of what really stole the show at E3.
