VGX, the Discussion Forum *OT* (Gaming)

Thought I'd start a thread where those of us watching VGX can discuss what's going on.
Borderlands Tell Tale Games collab?

Didn't see that coming.

Oh. My god. I'M SO IN.
I'd forgotten just how much I love Handsome Jack.

That was pretty much my reaction, too. I would honestly pay money for an hour of recorded Jack dialogue on its own.

This too. I suppose I never really forgot that I loved him, but after the twentieth time hearing most of his dialog, he kind of becomes... Normal? You get used to it, and even though it's funny, it doesn't deliver the same reaction anymore.
But those two lines? With the maniacal cackling? Oh that brings it all back. And "So many people are gonna die." just sells the entire trailer.

Transphobic and misogynist jokes less than five minutes in. You stay classy!

This is why I keep it muted until the trailers come on.

Even if the jokes aren't offensive, it's painful to watch. Glad I have a forum that will explode if something actually happens. :)
Aren't the VGAs always awful?
by RC , UK, Saturday, December 07, 2013, 15:40 (4004 days ago) @ Grizzlei
Not sure why that'd change because the name is different...
Yeah but that doesn't mean it has to get offensive
by Avateur , Saturday, December 07, 2013, 16:42 (4004 days ago) @ RC
Granted it was always offensively awful. Yeah, the jokes could go on and on about how bad the VGAs are. But really, they go and make jokes like that? Glad I'm not watching it.

Like the backlash they received from the first transphobic joke wasn't worrisome enough, they went off and let Joel McHale say more ignorant shit.
I don't think anyone is surprised by the Game of the Year

Grand Theft Auto V. It's a great game but I don't think it was the game of the year.
Not a bad choice
by Grizzlei , Pacific Cloud Zone, Earth, Saturday, December 07, 2013, 16:05 (4004 days ago) @ Xenos
Wouldn't be mine. I love the vision and work Rockstar did on GTA V, but so much of it was a fucking bore. Except airplane stunting with friends. That's always fun.

The Last of Us was my game of the year, easy. Maybe the game of the last five years.

Yeah I think that was my game of the year too. Maybe Bioshock Infinite, but I know many of you will disagree with that :)

In terms of time spent thinking about it, no fricking contest.
Haven't played The Last of Us, though. Yet. Now I can!

Quiet you! I played the demo, and I didn't care for it.
Fortunately my list of favorite games has a compiling-committee of one, and they always know exactly what I like!
;D
Is there really a reason?
by Phoenix_9286 , Saturday, December 07, 2013, 16:07 (4004 days ago) @ Xenos
It's three hours. Three hours. Mostly of stuff I either don't care about, or have already seen, surrounded by stupidity.
So I can either watch something brain dead for three hours, or skim the headlines and catch up in 30 minutes later tonight. To be fair, even if I did care about most of the content, this is still the better option.

I can't do that, I inevitably start paying more attention to one thing than the other.
Besides, I've got two bipeds I need to keep struggling to model. Lord I hate character modeling.

Trying some newer stuff, and that should be lauded. I'm just wondering how the gameplay will hold up. I loved Alan Wake, but for the story-telling, it wasn't exactly groundbreaking to play.

Yeah I do like that they mention the action based gameplay is based on their experience with Max Payne, hopefully that means it'll feel satisfying.

From these little bits I've seen it'll be more than satisfying. Seems like there will be plenty of new experiences for each little encounter.

While I give Spike credit for trying something new, hence the re-brand and the difference in format, its a pity they let Joel McHale troll the entire thing.
At least we got this gem:
Right! Guys? Hello?! ._.

as much as 3 hours were not necessary for showing it, Joel Banderas is pretty awesome.
