Microsoft, for the second year in a row, is asking Xbox Live members around the world (expect Japan, Korea, and Germany) to vote on their favorite Xbox Live Arcade games as part of the Xbox Live Arcade Awards for 2008. Gamers can vote straight through their Xbox 360s by visiting the Spotlight channel beginning Tuesday, March 3 at 10:00 a.m. GMT.
Votes can be placed and changed as much as you'd like up until Tuesday, March 10 at 11:59 p.m. GMT, which is when votes will be locked in and the polls will close.
