1995 was the year when NYPD Blue brought nudity to the Emmys. It was also the year when Braveheart gave Oscar voters something to cheer about and Alanis Morissette swallowed a Jagged Little Pill at the Grammys. But what about the video game awards? If you've ever wanted to know what old school games took home the top prizes, then you've definitely come to the right place. Today we're going to recreate Electronic Gaming Monthly's Best & Worst of 1995, featuring more than 40 categories that range from Biggest Game Flop to Hottest Game Babe to Game on the Most Systems. So let me cue up the VHS tape and introduce you to the greatest televised awards show to never be broadcast. Prepare yourself, the next corner is tough.


Still want more? New episodes of Electronic Gaming Monthly's Best & Worst Awards Show will be posted every Tuesday and Thursday through the end of 2018. If you still can't get enough, then make sure and subscribe to the Defunct Games YouTube channel for more reviews, analysis and award shows.

Special thanks to Electronic Gaming Monthly for putting the awards together in the first place, the Oscar telecast for supplying me with so many great cutaway shots, and to you for watching this crazy video.
