[PanzerCute]

Honestly S-Tier. Now I need to go to bed its fuxking 5am T_T

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

Bad. Not cataclysmically so, but still bad.

 

[HYDE]

Amazing for me:
Elden Ring Nightreign
Okami
Ninja Gaiden
Onimusha
Intergalactic THP
Fumito Ueda new game

 

[tusharngf]

no half life3 i rate it B ..

 

[R3TRO]

D

Felt safe and boring.

 

[Danjin44]

This alone made the show, solid A.

 

[ssringo]

Strong start with Ninja Gaiden Ragebound. Then fizzled out and ended with a wet fart.

Old man muppets were great throughout though.

 

[LordCBH]

I’d say B. Significantly better than last year.

 

[KàIRóS]

C for Capcom they somewhat saved a mostly terrible show with their IP revivals

 

[Luipadre]

Best TGA imo. No DS2 trailer was a huge bummer tho. Sony must have a state of play early next year

 

[Tsaki]

Must have been their best show yet. Good job Geoff.
Probably a B+ or an A
Edit: After half a day of absorving the information, I'll bump it to A at an absolute minimum. Can't think of another show in the past decade that had so many bangers.

 

[Valedix]

A, faster paced & great announcements.

 

[Magic Carpet]

B- It has some serious dips after going so well there for a while.

 

[GrayChild]

Below F.

ND's new IP looks awful.

Snoop Dogg should be banned from everywhere.

No HL3.

Silent Hill 2 got robbed.

No nip-slip from Sydnee.

 

[gothmog]

S tier here. I'm going to spend most of my day tomorrow looking at trailers. Lots of surprises and a new Ueda game on top of that.

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

E

Only good thing was Witcher 4 and PC Rebirth but none of those were really that high. None of the 6 games I really wanted to see was shown so E.

 

[Stuart360]

I only vote about the part of the awards show i actually care about and take seriously, the announcements and trailers.

So a C for me. Some decent games, a lot i dont care about, and no Half Life 3.

 

[DeaconOfTheDank]

Show kicked ass.

 

[demigod]

The tits alone deserved an S.

 

[DanielG165]

It finally gave me a new Ninja Gaiden game to look forward to next year since NG3/RE… Which came out in 2012.

Solid A.

 

[diffusionx]

Great show. I think they figured out the balance. Kept the zoomshit and DLC type announcements to a minimum. Come on, new Ueda, new onimusha, new vf, new ninja gaiden, new Okami? Old-chads are eating good rn. Too bad Naughty Dog sucksz

 

[Topher]

S tier. Was not expecting it to be so good. Feel like I finally got the PlayStation show I've been waiting for.

 

[T4keD0wN]

The only 2 redeeming things about the show were Honkai Star Rail 3.0 trailer and Okami sequel. Barely an E for me.

Also ask yourselves, how does it feel to know that Silksong is not real?

 

[LaughingStock]

I like Sydnee Goodman.

 

[Arsic]

A tier. Half life 3 or RE9 instead of okami would’ve made it S tier for me.

 

[Codes 208]

Solid B. A few really good announcements, still a lot idgaf fluff but most importantly a game i like won goty so it was solid

 

[bender]

S for Ueda game and Virtua Fighter alone. Then we got Yakuza 1915, Onimusha, Okami, Elden Ring Night Raid

 

[digital_ghost]

S tier

Lots of amazing looking games im interested in. Witcher 4 looks insane alone .

 

[cash_longfellow]

Garbage per the norm…as is the whole industry at this point.

 

[Skelterz]

The tits alone deserved an S.

Must have missed those it was so boring I had to turn it off .

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

It's a definite A if you love videogames and aren't a jaded, cynical cunt (good luck on GAF lol). Some *huge* surprises like Ueda's new game, Elden Ring "expansion", the return of both Onimusha and Okami, ND project reveal (yes, the protag is trash, get over it), Helldivers 2 surprise shadowdrop, The Witcher 4, what more do you want? Most importantly, Astrobot took it's well deserved GOTY, good times, PlayStation stay winning

 

[Platinumstorm]

I thought it was great.

I don't like that Elden Ring was a contender for GOTY.

I'm so happy for Keighley. I know he's living a dream come true.

 

[Arsic]

Garbage per the norm…as is the whole industry at this point.

Bro quit the hobby. If nothing in this show got you excited that this is what you deem F, then the years before must’ve been a Z by your standards.

 

[Jaybe]

Bagel boy promised two holy shit moments, I counted zero
Only redeeming aspect was Astrobot winning GotY and Larian guys speech prior

 

[Neff]

Fired on all cylinders, best event Geoff has ever hosted. Christmas came early and so did I

VF6
Ōkami back
Onimusha back
Clover reformed with Kamiya back at Capcom
New Naughty Dog sci-fi joint
New Sonic racing game
Drunk Harrison Ford

It had it all

 

[Loomy]

A or S. This was a far better show than the last few years. I wish he hadn't pitched Okami as the show ender only to then show the ND game. Seems like a shitty thing to do to the developers, but yeah.

That aside, it was a good show.

 

[Skelterz]

Garbage per the norm…as is the whole industry at this point.

Okami and Elden ring were the only interesting trailers to me tbh never got into the Witcher and don’t get me started on naughty dog don’t trust them at all.

 

[Punished Miku]

C

High number of legit trailers. Even higher number of scam ads.

Literally better to still skip show. No reason to watch it. Good trailers sandwiched between a paid ad every other second. Zero meaningful music or presenter presence. The awards are a fucking joke.

Wait 3 hours and treat it like a mini E3 when its done.

 

[Gubaldo]

F for hyping unnecessarily

 

[Sensei]

A-
Their best show yet.

 

[Lionel Richie]

The show was ass from what I saw, but the announcements were really great. Replace Geoff Keighly with Sydnee Goodman or a younger THOT and I might watch this shit ever again.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Likely his best show yet but loses major points for being way too long, C+

 

[RoboFu]

I'm going to say A because there was more old school series returning than new trash.

 

[DarkstarRising13]

It started out like crap yet ended with a bang.

I give it a B rating.

 

[Kacho]

S tier because we got 2 megaton announcements from Capcom. You can't ask for more.

The Naughty Dog reveal should have been a show stealer but all it'll do is create controversy. GG Neil.

 

[Kotaro]

S

New Elden Ring and The return of Onimusha, that's automatic S

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Not a fan of award shows in general, but as for the TGA's this was probably their best one yet.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Best one I've seen so far. A

 

[MiguelItUp]

B, it felt like the best one in a long while. Definitely had some games I was hyped about. Just also had a bunch that I still didn't care about so that's why I selected B, lol. It's a high B though!
