I expect it to be so bad it's not even funny, just soul-draining.
Also unparalleled shilling, the likes of which drives men to madness.

...

Overwatch, sadly. The others are even more generic.

...

...

I'm just going to be here dreading the inevitable threads for the Holla ForumsGAs that will be here soon. The resistance to the last one was so limp-wristed that I'm sure people will just fold over and let them bring their cancer here.

That's just all a given.

Best vocal performance, user. Because this is clearly more important for an interactive medium.

This.
I'm expecting OWfags will act all smug and shit just because a bunch of random "gaem jernalists" liked their game, even if it is just for "le ironic shitposting to make other anons angry". And when they do it will cement them as the biggest and most cancerous normalfags on this board for giving a shit about this charade.

Uncharted 4 or Overwatch will win everything, but even then the whole thing is more fixed than a usual awards show. Remember "Her Story" last year, a "game" that nobody knows or cares about winning last year?

And this will also count as human interaction

Also whats the point about "Trendy Gamer"? Who are half these people?

Her Story was an interesting concept with a fairly predictable story that was easily figured out.


I'm 100% serious. The idea of going through police interviews and piecing together what happened by searching for keywords in the videos is interesting to me. Unfortunately, what happened was meh.

3 of them are e celeb and one is a guy that used to work at gamespot.

Even I barely know or remember half these people.


But for it to get nominated or win an award for something nobody knew or gave a fuck about?

True, that's a fair point. I'm the only person I know that played it and it's only cause I like story-driven puzzle games since I played a lot of point & clicks growing up.

I am hoping {{ NOMINEE.TITLE }} from {{ nominee.publisher }} wins the award for {{ CATEGORY.TITLE }}

But really I hope everyone involved is burned alive.

How even runs this thing? like what company?

The Dorito Pope.

i actually don't know who funds it, I think it's multiple companies and Dorito Pope put it together or something

I mean it has Nintendo in it right? It is just such a empty title "The Game Awards"

It's held at venue related to Microsoft but yes I think it's funded by a few different companies.

What time does it start?

Dorito Pope runs it.
If you're asking "which companies is he shilling for" the answer is "anyone willing to fund him."

Judging by the advisory panel this includes but is not limited to:

I think I need chemo after looking through that list

In about 5 hours. youtube.com/watch?v=d9O7N3GkG_o

I hope that {{ NOMINEE.TITLE }} Gets the awards.

Anyone got some bingo cards ready for this shitshow?

...

Fucking burgers
At least with the nips I just need to wake up early

What did you expect

It used to be the Spike Video Game Awards and aired on that channel. Then they stopped doing it a couple years ago and now Dorito Pope has been just streaming it on youtube and shit.

The worst part is that only a few of the games nominated are actually fucking games. The rest are indieshit trying to be art or "cinematic experiences" that should have died out by 2011.

Seconded

WE NEED SOME BINGO CARDS

Here's ones from last E3 for some inspiration or something

Amazing, video-games basically is a bigger business than movies, but still the kikes can't run it as slick as the movie-awards.

All of a sudden I'm seeing this term used everywhere.

oh wow so they replaced one fat leftie with another, only thing missing is Sterling

I got something even better.

Don't be silly goy, there is no conspiracy afoot, that's ridiculous!

no, you already lost. or was he talking about his cancer?

Now absolutely no one will vote any of the actual nominees.

I have no idea, but its like almost month after and he is still mad

...

But if I don't, there will be bitching and moaning about having to choose the actual nominees user.
Plus it's more fun this way

I don't even know if I wanna watch it this year.

So does Dorito Pope actually care?
Was all his talk about wanting to improve just bluster?
Because I'd have fucking walked away from this show based on the nominees- especially when Nintendo can axe a category by threatening to pull a new trailer.
This is bought and paid for- but at least the VGAs had cringe to enjoy.

I'd agree with him on some of his points if he wasn't such a condescending asshole. Already makes me feel like every statement he makes about it is a lie or exaggerated. So much disinfo is gonna fly around Trump in attempts to discredit his run.

I know you faggots hate everyone and everything but isn't Kyle Bosman involved behind the scenes this year? I've got hope.

Eh yeah, probably.

Honestly I'm more interested in seeing Holla Forums's top picks for this year than who a bunch of people who have probably been bribed pick.

...

kek the salt is real.

I didn't know capcom employees browsed here

there was more especially the bit where he doesnt care about feeling of people since 90% of his viewers are from Sweden
and that apologizing might be just to his wife as she voted green and those voters were/are attacked often nowadays too

I didn't see an announcement that any of my favorite commentators were going to commentate on it live, so I don't think I'm going to watch it live.

Uncharted 4 will win GOTY because cinematic experiences appeal to not just the broad and vast casual demographic but the voting board of game journos which are ironically terrible at videogames.
Uncharted 4 will win multiple awards.
The worst thing is that despite the outright contempt I show for it, its not the worst game nominated for GOTY by quite a bit.

The bias against of all Japan is breathtakingly evident.
The way they hold an award ceremony for a year that is not even over is shitting in your pants retarded.
A lot of the things I liked this year didn't even get nominated.
I have no horse in this opinion based race.

The poal has a mix of Personal/What will happen/Joke votes nigger.
Don't take it seriously

...

Looking through this made me realize that this year has seen virtually no good games released. Doom 4 is a solid 6/10 and is probably GOTY. I haven't played turtlefull 2 or owlboy, but I bet they're not that great.
This is just depressing.

I really liked Battlefleet Gothic Armada from this year, but that's about all I can name. Not only did mostly shit games come out, there wasn't even too many of them

What's the run time supposed to be? 2 or 3 hours? I know it starts at 9 EST, but I just wanna know when it ends.

Dishonored 2 is alright, an improvement over the first one, mostly level design wise.

i wonder how TB will react when he realizes all that weight Genna's been losing is in preparation for her leaving him.

-Grim Dawn
-Shadow Warrior 2
-Deathwing
-XCOM 2
-Dark Souls 3
-Forza Horizon 3
-World of Final Fantasy
-Darkest Dungeon
-Stardew Valley
I though those were alright besides the late PC ports.

>>>/suicide/

Pete pls go

I'm kinda stupid, what is Uncommon time 2 supposed to be?

also he is getting better, tumor is shrinking

Who?

They all get better before dying suddently

...

>streamtwitch.tv/thegameawardshttps://www.youtube.com/thegameawards>its lagging / i hate chatdocs.livestreamer.io/

...

Damn these responses are hilarious. Gave me quite a laugh.

But seriously, some of these games this year weren't that amazing. At least XCOM 2 is getting best strategy in this poll so far, I guess.

video games have been soul-draining for a while now, so in a way it'll be representative of the hobby

But the game is shit.

Its pretty decent and the modding helps

Tell that to the other anons that voted that game as well.

The poal.me list is mostly a joke list; see

Totally agree with you on that.

Don't forget AAA does not equal the whole industry.

I picked up Underrail and have been having a blast.
Also tried Mercenaries 2: Order of the Silver Eagle on E-Shop, also pretty good (for a simple game).
I'd also recommend Rouge Wizards, but the selection of enemies gets rather thin towards the end.

Your pet boogeyman company notwithstanding, Dishonored 2 is developped by Arkane.

It's the small things that help.

Shadow Warrior 2 was shit. It's borderlands with ninjas.
Dark Souls 3 had no soul, I keep forgetting the game even came out.
XCOM 2 is just XCOM 1 but again, hardly worth any kind of praise.
I don't play racing games, so I have no idea if Forza is any good.
I refuse to touch a FF game with a ten foot poll.
And the rest are niche, not exactly something that's going to light the world on fire. GOTY needs to be big enough to turn heads, at least NuDoom signals to publishers that you can make an FPS without iron sights and still make money.
Sure AA and indie make better crap, they have for years now, but they're not important to anyone but us.

Pete still tweets incesantly about Dishonored 2 y'now

Why bother?

Arkane is dead since Bethesda and Zenimax acquired it and fired half the veteran staff.
Its also the same game as the first, has terrible optimization on every platform, SJW pandering (just like every modern Beth owned IP nowadays).


Pretty much, Long War Devs are also being paid to make mods for it and are working on their own game.
It ain't no OpenXcom, but its enjoyable

Then there's other mods that actually add in more customization, like armor from other games (Mass Effect, Titanfall, etc.), voicepacks, hairs…

And even having krogans as your own troops.

I'll probably watch it with Holla Forums even though the winners are obviously going to be rigged.

When's it starting, Holla Forums?
Why don't we see Geoff any more outside of this one annual event?

I would tune in just to see me some girlwood, but then I realized it'd be substantially less gay to just waste the night looking up tranny porn.

If anyone wanna watch then come here

about 3 hours. Here's the stream again for anyone wanting it. youtube.com/watch?v=d9O7N3GkG_o

fuck off big time


like less than FOUR HOURS

They just not playing anything yet or is it fucking up on me?

fuck off mark.

If you are watching for the premiers and deciding if it's worth your time or not. Here's the confirmed and rumored so far

Confirmed

Zelda BOTW
Prey
Mass Effect Andromeda
Halo Wars 2
The Walking Dead Season 3: A New Frontier
New Yacht Club Project (Shovel Knight DLC or a new game)

Rumored but heavily hinted

Telltale's Guardians Of The Galaxy
Gearbox Duke Nukem

The only other premiere Dorito pope hinted at was an "Xbox Surprise" so it's potentially Sea Of Thieves, Crackdown 3 or Scalebound getting a new trailer or something else (Forza Horizon 3: Blizzard Mountain, Killer Instinct Season 4 or potentially a new game?).

Man, is Bethesda announcing something at the Game Awards or something?

kys kys kys

wasn't Halo Wars 2 announced a few years ago? I thought it already came out and nobody cared honestly.

That's pretty much the only thing I even care about or want from that list.

Which one of the gaming-related events do you think is more likely to happen in 2017?
poal.me/s5u7tb

Sega know that their games sell well on PC, Valkyria Canonicals is a test to that. I really, really wanna play Yakuza on PC.

It's gameplay premieres for announced titles and some announcements as well.

...

someone give me ideas for bingo

God fucking damn they are all shit. Of all the games I have played this year, only Furi had an outstanding OST.

Diversity

passive-aggressive joke about donald trump

Games are Inclusive

...

Worst game in a category winning
ESPWORTS
4 DUH GAYMERS

VR, Nintendo Switch, mention of Donald Trump

Another COD game

Capcom pays enough money to get SFV to win an award

...

At least we have Streets of Rage and Gunstar Heroes.

gamergate reference
A shoutout to the Capcom cup
Walking sim wins three awards or more

Overwatch wins GOTY

So Uncharted 4 to win three awards, then?

gamergate is pretty much dead, trump overshadowed everything

Better
OVERWATCHWINSLOL

Why do people care so much about Uncharted? It looks beautiful and some characters are fun but besides that its one of the blander TPS' out there.

Maybe an alt-right reference?

Should probably be the free space tbh

Gamergate can never be dead, it became an eternal boogeyman for the left. You had actual news sites trying to push that it help trump win and created it the alt-right

Check this bingo out

Because it's one big Hollywood blockbuster. Granted it's pretty good one if you're into that shit, but as a game it's little more than a roller coaster ride - a cheap thrill that's easily disposable.

I lost all hope when MonHunUUUU was beaten by a fucking mobile game. And then Bioshit got game of the year. Dewritos Pope could have made a cool, independent, non-fucked awards show, but he didn't. He went the corporate route AGAIN.

For the bingos. I'd also consider a brief glimpse of Dorito Pope looking dis-heartened a given.

The new Wolfen(((stein))) is a lot like that. Cinematic, pretty, tries to have an interesting story. Ultimately it's really easy and just not as fun as a shooter that's actually well-made, like FEAR.

Dorito Pope being dead inside should be the free space.

Should be the free space.

...

But even then there are better third person shooters or even "cinematic" ones out there like Max Payne, Binary Domain, RE4, Warhammer Space Marine, even Spec Ops The Line which interested me a lot more. I feel like I like Uncharted more than I should because I'd love a treasure hunting video game

Also instead of "Gameplay trailers provides "gameplay" it should be "In-Engine Footage".

That's what I meant and couldn't remember it. Thanks user.

...

Ah shit, I forgot Half Genie Hero is out next year.

So that's one to look forward to.
But I guess they're AA or just A.

Next year we at the very least have:
– Switch
– Zelda
– Nier Automata (including PC)
– Sonic Mania
– Sonic 2017
– Shantae
– South Park 2
And all of that except for Sonic 2017 comes out before summer, probably in Spring.

All i care about is zelda and death stranding.

Indie fund game wins an award

Wait, I thought that it was coming out this month?


Doesn't TB know that Bernie was a controlled opposition for Hillary?

Why would any of the left or left-leaning moderates know anything about the corruption wikileaks exposed? No, better question - why would they care?

I'll bet good money Hungrybox won't win "Best eSports player", just because he dissed Reggie and kicked his ass in Tr4sh.

Shame, too. He's a great guy. I remember he caused some butthurt about something involving breitbart or trump or something.

I dunno about anything relating him to Trump/Breitbart, although it could just be I wasn't paying attention to him at the time.
Puff is cancer, but mad props to him as a player.

I just remembered what it was. He ran into Milo at an airport and took a selfie with him.

(((nominee.publisher)))

You're forgetting something.

This might help.

It's starting in 20 minutes, so is this the official bingo card?

duke in bullet storm.
