So glad I had some vodka with this.

Sure Luke was not with you before the show ?

 

[Son Of Sparda]

Very solid show. The first time in past few years that I actually enjoyed the show for what its supposed to be, a game award show.

 

[Crosseyes]

Well... ending was a bit anticlimactic but was a great show. Psychonauts 2, Geoff torching Konami, the Iwata Tribute...

Good stuff Geoff.

 

[Demoskinos]

I really liked it. Props to Geoff for putting this on. They keep getting better.

 

[SDBurton]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN

Yoooooooooooooo!

 

[Papercuts]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN

GOD DAMN

SHADE EVERYWHERE

 

[Theorymon]

Damn, not really any cool new announcements this time sadly =/

 

[2Smashed4U]

What...was the last premiere?

 

[Jopie]

It qas a good show, but the ending felt off. Expected it to end with a reveal.

 

[Tatsumi Oga]

So the Nintendo things was the tribute. The new games were Batman from Telltale and TWD.

Meh

 

[Dr. Ecco]

I must be getting too old for videogames because 90% of what I just watched didn't make any sense, but glad that at least TW3 won. It really set up a new bar for an already great genre.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Still laughing at Jade Raymond coming in like a rock star on some "I don't need your award show, your award show needs me" high. Kiefer feeling real pain after those shots.

 

[massoluk]

Hmmm. The world's premier is kinda meh compared to last year.

 

[Skux]

That ending was terrible lol

That last 20 minutes was some of the weirdest shit I've seen live.

- Geoff calling Konami out with 150k people watching on Twitch

- Jade absolutely off her rocker, burning/disrespecting Kiefer Sutherland right there and THEN flubbing the award winner

- Finishing with Deadmau5 which was completely anticlimactic

 

[Goodacre0081]

so did Jade Raymond spoil GOTY during Best Voice?

 

[KarmaCow]

Still not great but again I still really hope Geoff can get it down because you can see how hard he's trying in this show. :/

 

[barit]

Okay that was great except that Bloodborne has not won ANYTHING. Like really?

 

[PooBone]

Show was better with alcohol, but what the hell was the climax? Deadmaus? Really? Last year was Zelda.

 

[RobNBanks]

Why people so mad?
.

people expect it to be E3 Winter

 

[Peotical Injection]

God, that was tough to watch. I've never cringed so hard.

Happy for Witcher 3. Loved every minute of that game.

 

[sora87]

The Game Awards, sponsored by, among many other brands, Xbox, presented at the Microsoft theater in LA.
Did you really expect a PlayStation first party exclusive to be awarded?

Hell, with the amount of Star Wars Battelfront shilling going on, I'm surprised they didn't give that game at least 3 awards.

Goes without saying, though, it was worth watching for all the middle fingers pointed at Konami. #FuckKonami

Damn, you've got a huge point there.

 

[wheapon]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN

Yessssssss

 

[ChaosXVI]

Damn...I started to get hype at the end of that Deadmau5 thing with that sweet Maridia mix...

...Guess its nothing though...per fucking usual for Metroid.

 

[FZZ]

Deadmau5 is the new Nintendoland fireworks

 

[Dicer]

So... No Best Shooter?

Yeah, Splatoon...

 

[nephilimdj]

Like the Dota2 performance, Deadmau5 really needs to stop premaking sets that dont fit, felt so awkward

 

[ironcreed]

Yeah, I saw nothing to get excited about other than what I already knew was coming. But the show sure had some doozy moments and my game won GOTY. All is not lost, lol.

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Aside from the Iwata and Westwood segments...also drunk Hamill, that was pretty bad.

 

[Xyrmellon]

By a long shot this is the best show Geoff has done. That says a lot about how bad the others were. Some definite cringe moments, but this was tolerable.

 

[Despera]

I think Kojima made up an excuse to save himself the embarrassment of being part of this.

 

[Gazkapop]

The show still has nothing on the BAFTAs but this year was definitely an improvement however.

I understand they help fund it all but the amount of marketing needs to be scaled way back.

Also, feel free to give Ashly Burch the award she rightly deserves for LiS.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Wasn't last years GOTY also a generic WRPG?

Stay salty MGSV avatar.

Last year Bayonetta 2 had to win and won a mediocre action game.
This year one of the best RPGs ever created won. Deal with it.

 

[LostMyNarbles]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN

Savage.

 

[DeadlyBunny]

Solid game show. 8/10.

Next year more awards on stage, less music, less but harder hitting world premieres.

 

[Liamc723]

That was worse than last year.

Terrible.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN

Man, people are so punchy tonight.

 

[kitschbeam]

drunk Jade needs to be a thing

 

[OfTheOverflow]

Well that was a thing that happened, you guys need to embrace the cringe though, it's part of the fun lol

 

[chubigans]

Excellent show, way better than last years. Entertaining nearly the whole way through, can't ask for much more than that.

 

[tookhster]

Really Nintendo? Even the Cranky Kong reveal was better than absolutely nothing. How do you go from showing the first gameplay from the new ZELDA to absolutely nothing?

 

[munchie64]

Hamill was biggest rob.

 

[Ol No Bones]

That was so hilariously bad I don't even know what to say. Embarrassing.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Content was good but the ending seemed odd.

 

[blankempathy]

Didn't Geoff say they had one last thing to show? Surely that couldn't have been Deadmau5, right?

technically he was the last thing shown.

 

[TechJunk]

Good show overall, ended on a downer, too many musical performances. Game Awards, your audience wants to watch game announcements, accolades, developers. Not CHVRCHES or Deadmau5 (sp?).
Overall 75%, I couldn't have done it better though.
Looking forward to next year.

 

[ffdgh]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN

That sting...

 

[-Horizon-]

That ending.

 

[Salsa]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN

I need to top keighley and get some attention!

 

[Solemn_In_Berlin]

Just glad Her Story got all that recognition.

 

[Vanille]

Pretty solid show. They really need to cut some of the bloat next year, though.
