1996 was the year that gave us Oscar winning movies like Fargo and The English Patient. It was also the year when LeAnn Rimes won big as the Best New Artist at the Grammys and ER resuscitated medical dramas at the Primetime Emmys. But what about the 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 Awards of 1996, featuring more than 30 categories that includes everything from Scariest PR to Deadest System of the Year to Best Full Frontal Nudity.
