From Geoff Keighley:

"Today I’m proud to announce The Game Awards 2014, a new show that will be coming on December 5. After spending over two decades working in
games media, this year I’m creating a new independent celebration for our industry. Starting out on a new path is never easy, but I’m deeply humbled
to have the entire game industry rally behind this new celebration. In the coming days and weeks there will be much more to tell you about what’s
planned for December 5 at the AXIS Theater in Las Vegas, including information on the awards, the world premieres and much more. More than ever
our industry, the fans, the developers and the media, need to unite and show the world the power of games. I look forward to celebrating with you
on December 5, whether you join us in person in Las Vegas or online."

Beautiful.

Let's do this!

MGSV RELEASE DATE HYPE!!!
 
Shit, I am going to miss the craziness...stupid friends and wanting to get together.

Have fun GAF and keep it weird!
 
Get hype.

Gotta respect a man that gives a shit about what he does, the VGAs are already better than last years.

Well done Geoff.
 
First off, gotta give it to Geoff... Guy is a laugh stock by us, but props for putting up such a huge event!

Also, shinobi, good shit on the OT, LOVED IT!

Let's goo!!
 
Didn't know about this at all, cool! Something that's bound to be interesting to watch tonight.
What's the timing on the show? 9pm ET, 3 hours?
 
I dunno if that Godzilla: The Game thing is actually legit. Ban'namu hasn't sent out a press release or anything for it. And the Twitter isn't followed by any official Ban'namu accounts.

Also, Keighley or The Game Awards haven't retweeted any of the Godzilla game account's tweets.

Is the Switch the end of an era? Game count, less restrictions making games take longer to make, less ports? Higher price!
