The Game Awards 2015 Thread: Keighley's Last Supper

Geoff just shot himself in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the Konami, after hearing about this, is not going to want to support Metal Gear, nor will they help any of The Game Awards. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Geoff has alienated an entire market with this move.

Geoff, publicly apologize and retract your statement or you can kiss your award ceremony goodbye.

So Geoff is an asshole for explaining why Kojima couldn't attend? Nah, if anyone is acting shameful I would say it is konami. I don't even care about kojima, or konami, or MGS5 or the drama, but its clearly one party at fault in this specific instance and it is not geoff for speaking factually.

I like Hamill's Joker and all, but it's the same performance he's given plenty of times before. Nothing really stood out in this one over the others.

"Sorry.....are you not used to this?" What a bitchy comment by Jade. Half assed apology into something condescending.

Life is Strange needs to win something, WTF.
