30 days until Geoff Keighley's Game Awards.Expectations? Hopes? Fears?
>30 days until i can watch 3 hours of commercials
None. I'll be there to have a laugh with the other /v/ermin.
They rescind all the awards from Expedition 33 due to AI-usage
>hopesnone>expectations gacha, fortnite ads, multiple chinese wuxia slops that all look the same, final slot will be the naughty dog game that nobody cares about
>>751352952Like it or not, it's the one of the only things making video games relevant culturally and artisticallyEvery other show Geoff does is in fact just non stop ads
>>751352876GTA 6 full sweep.

>>751353073Brother, this is the Game Awards, you should expect a Best Use of AI Award.
>They won’t bring back Statler and Waldorf because they’d just shit on Highguard
Phantom blade should win something in order to appeal to the Chinese audience, which Geoff obviously wants money from
>>751353858What about miss piggy and hideo kojima?
>>751352876Highguard 2
When are the /v/ awards?
I cant wait for the pointless Muppets and celebs again!>Robert deniro>why the fuck am I here? Lmao
>>751354116those are always after the new year

>>751354116Does anyone even pay attention to that? I have not seen it since around 2011 when they invited thebestgamers on

An appearance by his good friend Hideo Kojima, to present a teaser to his new movie that he’ll be working on, along with the other two movies that still need to be finished. Then the reveal of Miyazaki’s new masterpiece, featuring a world on the verge of collapse, with ominous voiceover, telling us of how the greed of a deity brought this world to ruin and now it’s up to you, a literal nobody brought back to life, to stop all of this. Sony revealing a new project with which they’ll bleed another half a billion then pretend it’s all going well and they definitely don’t need to close the Trannifornia HQ. And at this point I don’t even want to keep typing. AAA can go die.

>>751355020>hideo KojimaThose puppets with the "hes kojimas best friend", "does Kojima know that?" Joke was on point. I legitimately laughed.
I hope we get AC7

How come game awards never leaks? You would think with all the people working on the show that 1 person would just post a text list of every game getting a trailer.
>>751352876Elder Scrolls VI launch date is Q4 2027
>>751352876I hope we see Divinity gameplay.
>>751354187Oh thanks>>751354389Only awards I watch, they're fun
>>751355219i wish
>>751355289Joe is forever raped by Geoff. No amount of twitter 'wins' can undo that.
>>751352876GTA 6 sweep
>>751352876GAME OF THE FUCKING YEAR
>>751355325Geoff's OpSec is simply too airtight. He feeds fake leaks to his staff and the second he catches a whiff of these circulating he executes his entire crew and starts anew.
I want another Highguard.
Everything will go to GTA. They'll make an exception for it. OoT gets a few pitty awards.
Get hyped you faggots
And the GOTY goes for Ocarina of Time
>>751355325i'm surprised it has never happened too, they usually do rehearsals throughout the whole week leading up so you would think some dipshit in the building would leak it at some point
>>751355630China needs a win with phantom blade zero otherwise they invade Taiwan next year. Geoff is literally paid by the CIA to placate them with game awards.
>>751355378>we didn't get another trailer or teaser in a year>we didn't get any fucking newsI wish they'd stop doing this.
>>751355146Pissed Pablo
>>751355693The nobel peace prize leaked last year due to insider trading on kalshi. So this year they made it so secret that when they announced the winner they couldn't even call her on the phone.
GTA VI domination
Im guessing re9 might get something. Was pretty big early this year, thats all I can think of next to gta6.
>>751355289Why is Seething Sanchez so god awful nowadays? He used to put up frequent decent reviews, now he does 6 a year and can't stop giving his shit opinions on everything on X.

From software announces a new dark fantasy souls game, the adventures of cookie and cream 2.
>>751355325I think it's because no one cares THAT much. I'm serious. But now with betting they might be more secretive with it, or maybe, the complete opposite
>>751355719Nah BMW flopped and slopped too.

>>751352876Geoff has been sucking off indie games last year so he'll give it to Queens Domain
>>751352952I do like the three hours of commercials believe it or not. Some good shit gets announced there. Not a lot cuz a lot of it is nepo woke stuff but occasionally something interesting gets on the list.
>>751356695Its divinity for me, most of the games I liked last year I've completely forgotten about.
So if they don't let GTA6 in this year will it be a valid entry for next year? How can GOTY2027 be a game that came out in 2026?
>>751356769They don't count "year" by calendar but by the 12 months since the cutoff point for the year before.If too many people complain they'll just make GTA6 its own entry when it comes to PC and give it GOTY that way.
>>751356769GTA is eligible for the GOTY cutoff
>>751352876I expect Mixtape will be doing quite well.
>>751352876Project Nortubel wins every award
>>751356769gta is eligible
>>751352876Sydney Sweeney as co-host. Also NO MORE MUPPETS!
>>751352876There's hasn't been anything funny or interesting in the show itself since rabbi bill clinton. Maybe highguard in hindsight only, so I don't have any hope or expectation for the show itself. Honestly I can't think of any unannounced or barely announced game I'd care to see. Maybe Cyberpunk 2
>>751352876>HopesNew ILL trailer with a release dateNew mainline Sonic announcementKOTOR Remake re-reveal

You already know goyslop 6 paid to win.Why do you think they conveniently moved the cut off date to exactly one day after goyslop 6 releases?

>>751359289Why did like one awkward interview he did with Geoff in the pre TGA days become so remembered
I think this will be a fairly boring year as he put all his effort into summer game fest this year.
>>751359574It's a perfect example of an inarticulate guy with a legitimate beef getting outmanoeuvred by a slimy snake when he goes to confront him. That frustration resonates with a lot of people. It's like when you're trying to argue on the phone with an HR sociopath.
>>751359836But Geoff argued well and made his case. Pissed Pablo is just pissed because he's a typical angry gamer manchild. You might think Geoff is slimy but I just see a professional owning his job responsibilities and even going out of the way to give this basement dweller neckbeard an interview.
2023 TGAs will remain my favorite purely because of the one BG3 schizo melting down on here.
>>751352876Mostly fears
>>751360067You're going to go far in this company, son. Keep up the good work.

>Geoff Keighley, meanwhile, is sitting beside a table of snacks. A table of delicious Doritos and refreshing Mountain Dew. He is, as you'll see on Wikipedia, "only one of two journalists, the other being 60 Minutes correspondent Mike Wallace, profiled in the Harvard Business School press book 'Geeks and Geezers' by noted leadership expert Warren Bennis." Geoff Keighley is important. He is a leader in his field. He once said, "There's such a lack of investigative journalism. I wish I had more time to do more, sort of, investigation." And yet there he sits, glassy-eyed, beside a table heaving with sickly Doritos and Mountain Dew.>It's an important image. Study it.
>>751360468His daddy, David Keighley, created IMAX. Geoff clearly had a bit of a complex and wanted to leave a similar legacy. I think he can stop feeling inadequate now, maybe... the duritos thing happening right as he was championing unbiased journalism and decrying ads really puts a stain on his otherwise pretty decent legacy.
Google Gemini says>By the time Keighley had successfully established The Game Awards as a massive industry staple, snack brands actually tried to lean into the meme for a marketing crossover.>In a 2017 interview, Keighley revealed that Doritos officially approached him and asked if he would host The Game Awards wearing a literal "Dorito Pope" outfit. Keighley flatly refused, drawing a firm line between his past mistakes and the professional prestige he was trying to build for the gaming industry.>Ultimately, his ultimate response wasn't a public statement, but a career pivot—moving away from corporate-controlled broadcast networks (like Spike TV) to self-fund independent ventures like The Game Awards and Summer Game Fest.
>>751355847He got kids
>>751352952>all those replieshow terribly grim
>>751352952Commercials are better than products.
You have to respect Geoff. This was the moment he stopped being the doritos pope.
>>751355570I've spoken to more than one journalist voting in the TGA, and many think OoT will actually win GOTY, it's that good.Also they'll have little time to play GTA before voting closes, anyway, so many won't vote it because of that.
>>751359574It was the first time a regular person go to ask industry people questions and he came off as such a douche during the interview and then his cope video claiming Geoff was fucking with him. He came off as mentally ill. https://youtu.be/NTNkoDzP1hI?is=VN3a-rqMpx3pEs6p
>>751361145Tbf at the time everybody hated on those game awards, he was just the only one to voice the complaints directly to Geoff's face.
>>751361262Were those the spike TV VGAs? Only thing I remember was iirc 2012 Nintendo was teasing they had a big announcement to make, everyone was hyped like the Wii U drought was finally ending, and it just ended up being you can play as Cranky Kong in Donkey Kong tropical freeze
>>751361262Yeah but Geoff had an answer for all of them while Joe tried to do his cringe 2000s angry gamer shtick and sounding mentally retarded. The cope video he did was so fucking telling of how unprepared that beaner was
>>751352876I think Geoff would get less death threats if he goes with something that isn't gta ironically enough
>>751352876Trying to think of games that would be hype and aren't completely unlikely to happen and I can hardly think of anyNew ape escape or gravity rush (sub 1% chance that sony had a change of heart, still, it's not completely impossible)New final fantasy that actually looks cool (they will probably just give us more ff7r trailers, also SE likely still doesn't know what the fuck people want from FF)New dmc or mvc from Capcom, also a new non-mainline MegamanSomething new from From that isnt's just more ERUhh... That's about it?
