[Doffen]

Ori was robbed.

 

[thenameDS]

Between Jade and the GAF meltdowns over Bloodborne I've had a fantastic night. Shame there was no huge announcement.

Now time for bed, have to be up in 3 hours for work.

 

[Kusagari]

In my opinion Bloodbourne is pretty boring.

Like it or hate it, I don't know "boring" describes Bloodborne.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

That was his performance? Seemed underwhelming.

 

[Karak]

Bahaha. That was it lol.
Jade should have come out and rapped about Solid Snaking

 

[Bornstellar]

... That's it?

 

[sora87]

Witcher 3 says hi.

It can say hi all it wants, Bloodborne will slam the door in it's face and continue being the pinnacle of gameplay, art direction and sound design.

 

[dickroach]

Metroid assets on the screen behind him?

 

[sk3]

I like deadmau5, but that was rough.

 

[Kinsei]

Good to see Witcher 3 won

Isn't there an action game category that Bloodborne would have been a shoe-in for?

There was Action-Adventure, but it wasn't nominated in that category for some reason. It also would have been a shoe-in for best JRPG but that wasn't a category.

 

[Niks]

Show was wayyyy better that last years. Will watch again next year.

Loved Jade Raymonds shade and fuckup. hilarious.

 

[Spine_Ripper]

Deadmau5 is gonna perform
Take off the mouse helmet, it's Kojima
Did you rike it

!

*bass drops*

 

[DrZeus]

Jade raymond looked gon off dat ooooo weeee. Dead mouse is not a good way to end. They love to bring him out like he's universally loved in the gaming community. I don't get it.

 

[Mik317]

this show peak with Geoff's ether

 

[Mattakuevan]

Uh, the hell was that?

 

[Leiru]

did nintendo announced anything?

 

[daveo42]

What is happening right now?

Deadmau5 showing off his Kinect collection.

 

[James93]

So is Jade Raymond okay? She seemed off.

She is no f***s given

 

[robotrock]

Wow holy shit. The camerawork throughout that...jeeze

 

[MasterHoodie]

Really?

That was it?

 

[OdysseusVA]

this show was a lot better with alcohol

 

[Pachimari]

[trixx]

sound went off hahaha

 

[Lionel Richie]

I missed it, what's the context of the Her Story girl pic that keeps getting quoted?

She won the award, but Jade Raymond, who was presenting it, said it was for The Witcher 3. The confused dude behind her is one of the devs or something of The Witcher 3.

 

[Baroquemantic]

I enjoyed that performance.

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

 

[KdMgMan]

one thing i learned today on this forum is people don't have any knowledge of music that isn't video game music which is so sad.

 

[SlickVic]

Isn't Witcher 3 that game no one can stand to bring themselves to finish it?

For a 100 hour + game, the 25% completion rate on Steam (which I'm assuming is similar on other platforms) is actually pretty good.

 

[Herne]

A dj. Woo.

Congrats to CD Projekt Red, and beautiful Iwata tribute. Also, no Zelda, and what the hell Jade Raymond?

That's all I've really taken from the whole thing.

 

[Quonny]

That WAS the surprise.

Uh. Okay.

 

[PhoenixDawn]

That was literally the worst ending I have ever seen.

 

[Mit-]

Why people so mad?

I think this year was fun. Entertaining the whole time. Minor mishaps but certainly not enough to shit on the whole show.

Do wish there was a big reveal at the end though :\

Bravo Keighley.

 

[Ran rp]

DEADMAU5 IS PART OF THE KLAN

LMAO

 

[dot]

what kind of ending was that :/

 

[Chezzymann]

How?

reading the wrong awards and that person making a really rude and disrespectful remark to keifer sutherland for example

 

[Jebusman]

So outside of the Iwata tribute, and #FucKonami, this was not a good show.

It was paced poorly, the world premieres really stretched the definition of the phrase, the ads were terrible.

I understand what Geoff wants to do. I really do.

But I just don't think it's possible.

 

[Aceshighhhh]

No Nintendo premiers? This show is really lacking compared to last year's

 

[Stratosphere]

That....was......terrible.

 

[mrjohill]

That was not hype

 

[Mushroomer25]

Aaaand now it's over. I like Deadmau5, but his show just does not translate into good televised entertainment.

 

[MrCunningham]

Jade was high as FUCK.

The Game Awards 2015: Brought to you by cocaine, salty tears and bud light...

 

[Ragona]

Man those last 2 hours felt like one giant weird trip.

 

[KarmaCow]

Please let that Metroid mix lead to a Metroid announcement.

COME ON NINTENDO D:

 

[Xeteh]

Never seen him without the mouse head

He did an interview without it earlier in the show.

 

[NotLiquid]

Am I the only Deadmau5 fan on GAF? Seems like.

I enjoy the Mau5.

 

[SRTtoZ]

That's a terrible way to end your show.

 

[Ricker]

Not as good as last year but still a good show.

 

[Japanmanx3]

Ending was meh. Highlight was the Iwata tribute...and the Konami burn. Good job Geoff. See ya next year.

 

[Haines]

this show was a lot better with alcohol

High five up top

 

[Kudo]

Bloodborne deserved to win being the best game of all-time, but I can see why The Witcher 3 won.

Also Deadmau5 is nice!
