Actually looks like the best year in a while. Solid line-up with some unknown reveals. I'll be gone Friday but I'll be refreshing Gaf for the trailers.

Gameplay footage teaser.
 
Still no PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale DLC announcments? THAT'S something I'd love to see.

Snake, Dante (the REAL Dante), Vergil, Cloud, and Sephiroth for first DLC pack, please.
 
Always a chance, but there's not exactly any kind of precedent for it.

Figured as much. They're really dropping the ball if they don't show anything. This next year is crucial for them to make as much headway as they can before Microsoft and Sony join them in the next-gen space.

Knowing Nintendo though, they'll probably have a Nintendo Direct about the same time that won't garner nearly as much press.

what?? they announced the first dlc for all-stars a while ago. in fact, pictures were uploaded last night. so far, all that has been revealed is emmett (from starhawk) and kat (from gravity rush), along with a heavenly sword/wipeout mash-up level. the dlc will be free for the first 2 weeks. there might be more to the dlc, but they have already announced this stuff so far.
 
Syphon Filter announcement
of Gabe Logan as Playstation Battle Royale DLC. The other character is someone from Pax Corpus.

This would be a bad year for them to start since anything they could show would end up getting contrasted with whatever "next-gen" teasers get shown.
 
Any chance something Nintendo related will be revealed during this?

Well, it's possible, in so far as literally anything at all could happen.

I expect something to get a Wii U multiplat, but, let's face it, the crossover between the VGA's targeted demographic and the targeted demographic for most of Nintendo's IPs isn't that great.
 
Last of Us, Castlevania, ... So it's basically the VGAs 2011 all over again?

I'd love some next gen stuff, but realistically we're probably not going to get a ton of new stuff until GDC/E3.

Well, it's speculated that 4 due to it being an unlucky number in Japanese (homophone for death) won't be used in the name for the next generation PlayStation. But of course that wouldn't stop them from showing a name of some sort. They could use the codename Orbis and show some concept art or something, like the PlayStation 9 video from the early 2000's. Uncharted 4 I don't know if I would want to see this early, I think it would be nicer to leave Naughty Dog as much space as possible to exploit the architecture of the new console to a high degree. A tech demo I'd be glad for, and it would probably be best for Sony to save the big guns until GDC or E3 2013; unless Microsoft begins to flex its DirectX biceps.




Unlike VGA's, GDC is not a straight up Tuxedo award show when they air actual funny bits like this in the past between awards.

Not sure where to ask, but will this be streamed via Youtube? Some friends from uni and I would like to watch it together on plug.dj.
 
I'm sure someone has predicted this at some point in this thread, but I wonder if Ninty will announce either a Wii U or 3DS Zelda at the VGA's. We're certainly due for some information and that could be that final boost they need for xmas sales.
 
Thanks, that's how I will watch it then. I'm not even sure I get Spike anymore since I changed service providers (checks).

EDIT: Yep, I get it on TV too. So TV + GAF on the Wii U Pad it is then.
 
So do you guys think Alan Wake 2 will be revealed? I'm calling it, if Alan Wake 2 is not revealed at the VGA it will be a launch or near-launch title for the next Xbox.
 
AW2 will be something Microsoft holds close and quiet until their own presser. It's not a big enough franchise, nor is it a new IP, so I don't expect it.
 
I thought this game was dead

THQ gave the rights for the game back to Valhalla Game Studios (Itagaki) in July, later that month they announced a collaberation with Doobic Co., Ltd.:
