The 2013 Origins Game Fair is finishing up today, but last night the winners for the 2013 Origins Game Awards were announced. There has been some debate in the past as to how relavent the awards are and if they should even be taken seriously. No matter where you sit on the fence about the awards, the winners still deserve their credit for putting together a great game. People should at least agree that any of the award winners put out a good product.
