As I'm sure you all know, the VGAs kinda suck. Yadda yadda. Right. But I did watch them for the reveals (and Samuel L. Jackson and Jessica Alba) like I usually do every year. Some highlights and tidbits and thoughts:

Game of the Year
The Walking Dead: The Game

I disagree completely. While TWD was a pretty good game (I don't even like zombies or the show), there's no way it should've been GOTY, even when this year wasn't all too impressive overall. Would've given it to Xenoblade Chronicles, Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, or Dragon's Dogma.

I expected Mass Effect 3, Dishonored, or Halo 4 to win.

Studio of the Year
Telltale Games

Because of TWD they won. Again I disagree (but that's usually the case). Didn't really care for any specific studios this year or anything so no input.

Entertainment Weekly and Spike VGA Best Game of the Decade
Half-Life 2

No. While HL2 is amazing, its just not up for "Best Game of the Decade" or anything. ACII or Portal 2 or something pls

Best Xbox 360 Game
Halo 4

Expected. Probably deserved, idk.

Best PS3 Game
Journey

This game was pretty 野菜 good. Better than I thought it was gonna be. Deserved.

Best Wii/Wii U Game
New Super Mario Bros. U

No. Shut up. Xenoblade Chronicles.

Get that Mario 質 outta here.

Best PC Game
XCOM: Enemy Unknown

Again idk.

Expected Diablo 3.

Best Shooter
Borderlands 2

Kinda weird but also expected. It was definitely between this and Halo 4. Glad this won because I like Borderlands, but this game is starting to get overrated tbh.

Best Action Adventure Game
Dishonored

Haven't played. Expected this completely. Would've given it to ACIII, even though I barely got to play it.

Best RPG
Mass Effect 3

the the the the no. Xenoblade Chronicles. C'mon now. Or Dragon's Dogma too.

Totally expected.

Best Multi-player Game
Borderlands 2

No. PSASBR or TTT2. Fighting games are more fun in multi-player than FPS (imo). At least locally. But fighting games never win awards outside of fighting game awards >_____>

It was either this or Halo 4.

Best Individual Sports Game
SSX

I don't even know.

Best Team Sports Game
NBA 2K13

I don't play sports.

Best Driving Game
Need for Speed: Most Wanted

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed stomps on this. Get outta here.

Best Song in a Game
Cities" by Beck, Sound Shapes

w/e

Best Original Score
Journey

Agreed.

Best Graphics
Halo 4

Don't really care about graphics or pay attention to them. Halo 4 looks nice, so it fits I guess.

Best Independent Game
Journey

Of course.

Best Fighting Game
Persona 4 Arena

Wuuuuuuuuuuh? Totally unexpected. Figured TTT2 would've won (and it should have).

Arena's good, but...not up to snuff with TTT2 or DOA5 imo. Solid 3rd place.

Best Handheld/Mobile Game
Sound Shapes

What is this

Gravity Rush.

Best Performance by a Human Female
Melissa Hutchinson as Clementine, The Walking Dead: The Game

"by a Human Female?" Uh...what? lol do they use animals for VAs nowadays?

But Clementine was the best original character all year. Deserved I guess, if they're not counting UMvC3 Vita's port. If they did count it, then Morrigan should've one cuz of that accent.

Best Performance by a Human Male
Dameon Clarke as Handsome Jack, Borderlands 2

Again Human male lol.

Sure idc. Unless ports are included. In that case, Dormammu and Doom from UMvC3 should've stomped. Also Hazama from BBCS Extend. And can't forget Optimus Prime baby wooooooo.

Best Adapted Video Game
The Walking Dead: The Game

Does Transformers: Fall of Cybertron qualify? That should've won if yes. If not, then TWD can take it and all would be well.

Best DLC
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Dawnguard

Don't even care.

Best Downloadable Game
The Walking Dead: The Game

Journey

Best Social Game
You Don't Know Jack

lol

Most Anticipated Game
Grand Theft Auto V

the the the the to the naw mane.

Metal Gear Rising, Phantom Pain A.K.A. Metal Gear Solid 5!!!! @___@, Anarchy Reigns, Tekken x Street Fighter, Watch Dogs, etc

Character of the Year
Clap Trap, Borderlands 2

wtf no. I like Clap Trap as much as the net guy but...no

For original/new characters, it should've been Haytham, Clementine, or Juliet. Hazama, Jubei, Deadpool, etc. for counting ports. Grimlock otherwise cuz he's GRIMLOCK.

--------------------------------------------------

Also, other stuff:

- Announcement of Dark Souls II for PS3, 360, PC. Translation: the Internet just orgasmed.

- New Kojima game called Phantom Pain. Looks like a psychological survival horror thing. Strong evidence pretty much confirms that it's actually MGS5 :O. Found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSfajBs2nyQ. Get hyped.

I am so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so SOOOOOOOOOO excited for that @_______________________@

- Samuel L. Jackson should just host every award show

- The South Park game looks great

- Black Ops II didn't win anything. Wow :O

- Jessica Alba = MILF

- Metro: Last Light looks good too (first one was SEVERELY underrated)

- Wish we had a better awards show but w/e mane. Always disagree

Discuss. Or not idc

THE PHANTOM PAIN!

These are too horrible to look at... All of them. It's just... horrible. They don't play enough games. Nor have the correct mindset in video games. I'm disgusted.

Anybody have their own picks?

Game of the Year
Transformers: Fall of Cybertron
HM: Xenoblade Chronicles, Dragon's Dogma

Best Game of the Decade
Assassin's Creed II
HM: Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Portal 2

Probably forgetting a few/bunch

Best Xbox 360 Game
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
HM: Halo 4

I have no idea

Best PS3 Game
Journey
HM: PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale, Tales of Graces f

Journey's a given. PSASBR was fun as the the the the, but too many issues kept it below Journey

Best Wii/Wii U Game
Xenoblade Chronicles
HM: ZombiU

Xenoblade is great. Haven't even touched a Wii U but it looks aight

Best PC Game

HM: Asura's Wrath, Lollipop Chainsaw

I was like the only dude who liked Asura's Wrath and Lollipop Chainsaw >___>

Best RPG
Xenoblade Chronicles
HM: Dragon's Dogma, Mass Effect 3

Xenoblade and DD were amazing. ME is boring, but it does have Garrus (one of the best character ever). So it gets points there

Best Multi-Player Game
Tekken Tag Tournament 2
HM: Dead or Alive 5, PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale

Fighters. Always and forever

Best Driving Game

Melissa Hutchinson as Clementine, The Walking Dead: The Game
HM: Tara Strong as Juliet Starling, Lollipop Chainsaw, Jessica Straus as Juri Han, Street Fighter x Tekken

HM: Nolan North as Nathan Drake, Uncharted: Golden Abyss,

PS2
SNES

PC
PS3/360

Doesn't mean you shouldn't put them on the list. Genesis is 野菜 good too

Screw the
PS3
Xbox360
WiiU
And the Vita (especially the vita)

lolno

PS3 and 360 are great systems. Huge libraries, glorious HD, online communities, backwards compatibility, etc

Wii U I'll agree with. Not interested, though it'll have a good library when all is said and done. Vita too.

Everyone hates systems when they first launch Red.

PS3/360

No... Just no....

You're right; what was I thinking??

lolno

W/e

GTHO
Most suck. I would have never purchased this 360, idk why mom felt the need to >_____>

Wii U I'll agree with. Not interested, though it'll have a good library when all is said and done. Vita too.

As soon as Vita realeases LoL or KH:BBS, then we can talk.
Wii U? Boi I barely liked the Wii >____________>

Everyone hates systems when they first launch Red.

Most people use the following logic when shopping:

"If it costs more, then its obviously means its better than the other systems."
"Everybody else has it."
"It comes in Pink/Blue/Black/etc."
"I want it. Don't know what it does. But I want it mom!"
"I broke the first one, I NEED another one."
"I NEED IT TO LIVE!!!"

Those aren't the ideas most people have, but its the majority.


For me its:

"Wth? Psp just came out like 9 years ago and its still one of the best handheld."
"This console only has like 3 games, Why the the the the the is everybody walking around bragging about owning it?"
"Ugh."
"What was wrong with the last system? >____>"
"I still have my N64, and I've dropped my anvil on it hundreds of time; its still here. This Xbox 360 can't even go a week without something happening to it >___>."
"Who the the the the the would pay more than 100 bucks for THIS?! NAH get me the Funk outta of this store!"

I know most system usually suck when it first comes out, 360 been out for like 5 years or w/e, and it still sucks.

N64 is inferior to the PS1. PSP is good but not up to the challenge of keeping up with the others.

the the the the yeah you betta like that system

Of COURSE I do wtf

Yeah boi

Duh

Linking to funny junk doesn't work

If you say so

I ain't even a PC gamer

No... Just no....

Yes... Just yes....

You're right; what was I thinking??

You weren't

Yezzir

Nope. Most of the games for any of the systems are average. That's how it works.

The PS3 and 360 are great systems. You just a nostalgic hater. Hipster logic you got there

As soon as Vita realeases LoL or KH:BBS, then we can talk.

Already has Gravity Rush, Golden Abyss, UMvC3, PSASBR, MK, P4G, and more on the way I'm sure. it's fine already. Doesn't need another KH port.

Wii U? Boi I barely liked the Wii >____________>

Some of this gen's best games were on the Wii. Again your loss

Most people use the following logic when shopping:

"If it costs more, then its obviously means its better than the other systems."
"Everybody else has it."
"It comes in Pink/Blue/Black/etc."
"I want it. Don't know what it does. But I want it mom!"
"I broke the first one, I NEED another one."
"I NEED IT TO LIVE!!!"

Or...you know...

"Ooh it's got upcoming exclusives I want!"
"I'm so excited for the future of gaming."
"The older systems are gonna stop getting in new games, gotta keep up."

Although the ones you gave aren't wrong either. You're just biased way too much on your side

For me its:

"Wth? Psp just came out like 9 years ago and its still one of the best handheld."

Thought it was 8 years...

But I won't argue this. All opinions and I agree that Vita and 3DS aren't worth it yet.

But DS is better

"This console only has like 3 games, Why the the the the the is everybody walking around bragging about owning it?"

Other than the obvious having a brand new next-gen system, new launch titles, excitement surrounding the coming future, etc, it's because it's new and exciting. Gaming's always evolving. If it stagnates that's awful.

But again, I'm not one for getting systems at launch either so w/e

"Ugh."

UGH!

"What was wrong with the last system? >____>"

Inferior technology, already sold as much as it was going to, developers not interested in creating games for it anymore, gotta keep up with the other companies business-wise, bring on the future of gaming, etc

"I still have my N64, and I've dropped my anvil on it hundreds of time; its still here. This Xbox 360 can't even go a week without something happening to it >___>."

I know you're exaggerating but w/e. It's not a matter of "this breaks easily" because it's not a toy in the sense that you buy it for the sole purpose of carrying it and bringing it around everywhere. It's for the games. The software stuff. THAT is always upgrading and getting better.

"Who the the the the the would pay more than 100 bucks for THIS?! NAH get me the Funk outta of this store!"

Many people would, have, and always will

I know most system usually suck when it first comes out, 360 been out for like 5 years or w/e, and it still sucks.

Thought it was 7

But from what you're saying, you're giving reasons for a completely different line of complaining. Your complaints so far have been "it's expensive, doesn't have a launch library that interests me, and I still like my old 質," which is fine. But we were discussing why you seem to think modern games suck. Those complaints have nothing to do with it. Just release stuff really.

I really think games could use a better awards show >_______> Along the lines of the Grammys and Oscars, but obviously not as big

Nvm, My argument is obviously blinded with a blend of Nostalgia and Biased opinions.

Xenoblade Chronicles got robbed >:\

Still am mad
