Keighley is once again hyping up many announcements/trailers... plus some awards.

I seem to remember being on the brink of tears in bed wondering why the hell I was even staying up so late watching it last time, so I'd continue to rely on all of you for entertainment.

Romier S Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 That Returnal GOTY snub has not gone unnoticed Keighly! I would put it there over Ratchet and Clank or Psychonauts 2 and I loved both of those, too. I liked Village quite a bit but I'm not sure I'm down with it sitting on that list for GOTY either.

Angry the Clown Posted December 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 Yes. As ever it's an odd list. I haven't played much this year, and while I enjoyed Village immensely even I'm certain something else could sit there in its place (and it is shitty that Forza didn't make it onto the the list of GOTY nominees).

Angry the Clown Posted December 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2021 More than happy to have crack at Konami when they upset his friend though. Oof. It certainly doesn't help the image of the whole ceremony always coming off like a commercial for the industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted December 4, 2021 Report Share Posted December 4, 2021 He did say they would have no other presence at the show. It’s a difficult spot. He takes a side here, then what about Ubisoft, Riot, and any number of companies that have had these type of workplace conditions the past year or two. It’s a little easy calling out a company that has no marker in the games industry at the moment, while being silent with companies that prop up his show.

Keighley's predicament certainly isn't helped by the fact he's got the president of Activision, CEO of Ubisoft and co-founder of Riot on the advisory board of the Awards, no.

Romier S Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 I will be there probably. I am traveling back from work on that day but I should be back in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romier S Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 I’m likely to miss the first hour or so of this. My daughter has her first concert playing the bass and I can’t miss that. dogbert, Angel P, Magness and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 So I'm guessing there's another crummy preshow as part of this? The website says THE GAME AWARDS AIRS LIVE AND FREE ON THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9 AT 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT / 1 AM GMT. But the timezone chart shows something at 4:30pm PT, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romier S Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Outside of the reveals, I don't much care for the awards so yeah. I'll still hop on and watch what I can but I'm sure its easy enough to catch up on all of the trailers in the AM. The point is to make these shows more streamlined and well paced. Not MORE bloated, Geoff. He was doing pretty good the last few years, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
