[direct_quote]

Shaq looks fucked

Only way he could present on stage.

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

Yeah, there is no reason to have the screamers standing in front of the stage, there are plenty of empty seats haha.

My girlfriend would be involved in a lot of these types of shows and live events, and many of them have seat fillers. Even things like Conan or Fallon. People would rather watch these events on tv than be there live. The empty seats are a consequence of them not really doing seat fillers. I remember being a seat filler for the VGX in VEGAS, the one with DMX, and I was a seat filler who Sat at the VIP tables. I was seating 5 feet away from Tony hawk. Crazy stuff. Long story short don't read into it So much.

 

[Floody]

So this gets stage time, but some game winners don't.

 

[Hexa]

FUCK YEAH OPTIC.
I was hoping but didn't actually think they would get it. Damn.

Here is the tron game.

Oh... I just kinda assumed it was F2P. It being an endless runner and prime for micro-transactions.

 

[ryseing]

Optic gaming?! WHat. . . the. . . fuck

It's a montage parody come to life.

 

[Red UFO]

[Xeteh]

e-sports rivaling real sports lol that guy has jokes.

I love watching esports but as soon as he said that my eyes crossed. Yeah that 10 week $1.2m tournament is really going to rival a sport where there's players that make that several times over a year.

 

[Violence Jack]

That's one of the awards that could've been given out in the pre-show.

 

[Teknoman]

How is CoD young in Esports? Havent people been playing competitively since like 2000 with the first game?

 

[Diancecht]

[DietRob]

I think a little bit of Shaq just died inside for having to say "E-Sports"

 

[Lonestar]

always funny to see average joes standing next to Shaq.

 

[wild wild rice]
