The Game Awards 2015- I swear, I just watch it for the announcements - Games

[QUOTE=NoobSauce;49242317]Wow that was a joke I mean, Battlefront was a shit game, but how the fuck was it not a nominee for 'Best Art Direction'?[/QUOTE] I think because it's a late 2015 game like Just Cause 3. It might get nominated in 2016.

its depressing when a free community made /v/ga awards can blow this shit out of the water

i think the true joke is that rise of incarnates was on the list for best fighting game of the year. even though it was shut down and you can't play it anymore.

[QUOTE=MrBond;49242303]it's over? wtf they didnt even announce best rpg lmao did they forget it or what[/QUOTE] i mean seriously did i miss it on show? because on the site they dont have a winner for it

That was pretty boring, nothing really overly exciting. That blatant Battlefront advertising was sure something. Also Her Story seriously got awards? I mean it's an o.k. game but nothing award winning.

[QUOTE=DMGaina;49242324]I think because it's a late 2015 game like Just Cause 3. It might get nominated in 2016.[/QUOTE] And yet Fallout 4 somehow got nominated for goty.

[QUOTE=Wii60;49242325]its depressing when a free community made /v/ga awards can blow this shit out of the water[/QUOTE] do you have a link to the /v/ga awards?

To be honest that game show was pretty boring most of the time for me. But overall i guess it was okay.

[QUOTE=DMGaina;49242324]I think because it's a late 2015 game like Just Cause 3. It might get nominated in 2016.[/QUOTE] Didn't stop Fallout 4

even game journo sites dont have who won best rpg kek

[QUOTE=Akzon0r;49242337]And yet Fallout 4 somehow got nominated for goty.[/QUOTE] Oh shit, you're right. Game is not even fixed properly yet.

[QUOTE=usaokay;49242048]Jade Raymond became likable with the David Hayter comment. Then fell in one swoop thanks to her getting confused with the Her Story actress for being in The Witcher 3. It's probably due to the confusing names or was a brain lapse.[/QUOTE] She just read from the paper, it was printed wrong.

Also this is the first time I've ever heard of this "Her Story" game. What the hell is so special about it

[QUOTE=Svinnik;49242340]do you have a link to the /v/ga awards?[/QUOTE] heres last years awards [video=youtube;jqHdj8uVggY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqHdj8uVggY[/video] [url]http://2014.vidyagaemawards.com/[/url]

at least there wasn't Pele

[QUOTE=DMGaina;49242311]It's 5am now and I have to go to work in 4 hours. I have to overthink my life decisions. :v:[/QUOTE] I have to work in 2, i've only gotten 2 hours of sleep.

[QUOTE=Wii60;49242351]even game journo sites dont have who won best rpg kek[/QUOTE] The actual Game Awards site isn't updated yet like it is for the other categories.

Here I am thinking some cool, major game reveals were gonna happen again or something, or at least some cool stuff. Instead we get crowdfunded Psychonauts 2, Telltale Batman, a trailer for a Walking Dead mini-series that was already announced earlier today if not even earlier than that, and Rocket League coming to Xbox One with some Halo-themed cars. I can't even remember anything else, that's how underwhelming this all was.

what a fucking shitshow lmao

[QUOTE=NoobSauce;49242361]Also this is the first time I've ever heard of this "Her Story" game. What the hell is so special about it[/QUOTE] Most high up people in video games have to be sjws and it's the perfect sjw game this year. It's fine for what it is but isn't better than anything that got nominated for the same award.

[QUOTE=MasterKade;49242368]at least there wasn't Pele[/QUOTE] Pele would have been better than 80% of this show. Like, the only things worth going back for is Reggie's speech and Geoff owning Konami.

[QUOTE=NoobSauce;49242361]Also this is the first time I've ever heard of this "Her Story" game. What the hell is so special about it[/QUOTE] You sit in front of an old police computer and look trough some videofiles. There is a nice twist. Storytelling is non-linear. There are no win or loose conditions, you can "end" the game whenever you want. I played it, the story is really well written and the performance is great, but it could have been a short film. It not doing much with videogame interactivity nor does the players input have any impact to the "gameplay" or story, I wouldn't really call it a game, you just watch videoclips, that's it.

Previous VGAs when the show was hosted on Spike, it was utterly laughable and quite embarrassing, but there was some energy and those who participated seemed to have fun with it. Now these past few years, they have just been quite underwhelming content-wise. I have a lot of respect for Geoff for putting through with all of this throughout the years (and not just the show, too). And I feel bad for him, seems like he's been very off and it shows a lot, but he still tries.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;49242388]it's a 2015 FMV game[/QUOTE] [url=http://store.steampowered.com/app/373390/]There was another one[/url] that was much better for how much it plays into the fact that it IS an FMV game tho

I'm legitimately mad that this "game" beat Tales from the Borderlands for best Narrative.

He used to be a game reviewer and journalist, now he's just a shill bot and an advertiser. Poor guy.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;49242454]that actually seems interesting[/QUOTE] It is a lot more interesting that it lets on. So much so that Giant Bomb ended up doing a full playthrough of it. Definitely worth checking out for the price.

You know how films have Oscar bait, starting to think games have that too.
