So..

http://www.spike.com/events/video-game-awards/

Is where I should be for the stream?

 

[Corto]

Sold poorly enough to warrant 2 expansion packs, a free to play MMO (cancelled) and now a full blown sequel.

Most games wish they sold that poorly.

I stand corrected then, I'm old and my memory is not what it used to be... cough cough

 

[Broder Salsa]

I really hope there will be single female journalists there.

Apparently.

 

[Souless_PJ]

So I can't seem to see any dashboard ads for this on Xbox live in my country (Australia) so I presume I can't watch this stream on there.

Oh well have to use the web stream

 

[Aaron Strife]

Holy shit, I didn't realize this was tonight.

What's the over/under on Yoshi Land being announced here? Because that would be fucking sweet!

 

[DarkChronic]

KINGDOM HEARTS 3, lemme get a AWW YEAHH

niiiiiicccccccccccceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[DigitalOp]

Im a little late to the party but what is everybodys hype level for the "Unknown 5" reveals?

Weak?

Decent?

Surprising?

Or Megaton??


My bet is on 2 megatons, 1 suprising, 1 decent, and 1 weakbody reveal.

Sounds about right in my head

Spoiler

5 megatons, please 5 megatons, please 5 megatons....

 

[RPGCrazied]

Can't wait to finally see some South Park gameplay, and the HUD. After the lackluster sales of Darksiders II, I'm doubting Darksiders III will ever see the light of day. I'm hoping to see a jRPG, but those aren't going to get announced in America first.

[TheBioLover]

Turtle Rock's game and Patrice's game have been in development for a while I think, wouldn't be surprised to see either of them there.

 

[_woLf]

I hope we get at least one Wii-U related reveal. Please?


....please?

 

[benny_a]

Im a little late to the party but what is everybodys hype level for the "Unknown 5" reveals?

There will be 4 millitons and one kiloton.

At most I will give it 1 megaton. 1 kiloton. 3 millitons. (The Last of Us being the only megaton that came out of the VGAs because nobody expected a second game by them.)

 

[ckohler]

Why does Gesalt have the countdown timer in the OP set to 8:00 EST when it starts at 9:00 EST?

It's really confusing me.

 

[iammeiam]

Saints Row IV reveal incoming (the expansion pack repurposed)

 

[Hindle]

Considering South Park is out in what 4 months we've hardly seen anything on it. It's Definatly the current gen game that I'm most interested in seeing tonight.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Why does Gesalt have the countdown timer in the OP set to 8:00 EST when it starts at 9:00 EST?

Pre-show.

 

[Degen]

Well shit I guess I'll actually watch it

already looks better than E3 which is pretty funny

 

[Hot Coldman]

KINGDOM HEARTS 3, lemme get a AWW YEAHH

Muppets world or bust.

Eh, there's likely to be some weaksauce new Spiderman game in there or something.

 

[gaming_noob]

Hoping for a megaton studio defection announcement. I have a good feeling.

I believe that's referring to the one hour pre-show.

Tonight's Video Game Awards on Spike TV will also be streamed online (including here at Kotaku) as well as through the Xbox 360. It's via the 360 that viewers will be able to cast votes to tweak the show and one of its exclusives.

Spike's/GTTV's Geoff Keighley just shot me a list of the things that Xbox users can vote on. I was expecting some weak stuff like "Say whether you love the Xbox 360 or not", but these are actually some fun options.

• Which weapon Sam Jackson walks out with after a commercial break: Gears of War Hammerburst, a Halo Battle rifle, or an Assassin's Creed III Tomahawk.
• Which video game song we use to open us an act of the show, Castlevania's "Vampire Hunter," Mega Man 2's "Dr. Wiley Stage 1" or Persona 4 Arena's "Reach Out to the Truth"
• Which game Sam Jackson inserts himself into next, Halo 4, Angry Birds, or Minecraft.
• After the show, fans on Xbox get to pick an "extended cut" of exclusive new footage they get to see, either Gears of War: Judgment or Tomb Raider. Only one will be shown and fans on Xbox will decide which clip is shown

My votes would be Tomahawk, Persona (to make Jason Schreier happy), Minecraft and Tomb Raider. The VGAs air and stream tonight at 9pm ET / 6pm PT.

Didnt see this posted, give you an idea about a bit of the show.

more like some lame DLC announcement

There's some kind of preshow or some shit, starting at 8

 

[~Kinggi~]

sounds as bad as expected

except for Dr. Wily stage 1 playing, that'd be rad

Vampire Killer would be my vote.

 

[Sub_Level]

Why does the OP clock say 8PM EST but the info below states that it starts at 9PM EST?

 

[Nugg]

I strongly believe Dr. Wily stage 1 is the very best piece of video game music ever. I want it played at my funeral.

Why does the OP clock say 8PM EST but the info below states that it starts at 9PM EST?

Again, the pre-show starts at 8. Do I need to bold it too?

 

[RPGCrazied]

Yeah, seeing the gameplay for Lords of Shadows 2 is going to get me to replay the first game for sure.

[Seda]

Preshow.

VVV

Yep you guys can watch the show worldwide at vga.spike.com. Works on the web, on your phone, on your iPad etc. No geoblocking. The preshow gets underway at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET.

It's an incredible show and I'm very proud of the strides we are making this year. I hope you'll give things a fair shake. I know hating on the VGAs is a sport for most of the core audience, but we have some really amazing moments planned this year with some new games and some very special guests.

Enjoy the show.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Vampire Killer is so good, even Castlevania Judgement couldn't make it suck.

 

[Gorillaz]

There's too much hype. This can only end tragically.

Thats the best part of all of this tho.

Nothing stops this train

Must be a big reason Xbox is heavy into this one this year.

 

[friskykillface]

....please?

Miyamoto was there last year so they should have waited when they gave him that award

Could have happened

But gotta think like it will B^)

 

[Sub_Level]

Thanks. Might be good for the OP, but meh, no biggie.

 

[Corto]

The stream starts with a pre-show show.

 

[Sky Chief]

There's some kind of preshow or some shit, starting at 8

Is this streamed only, my TV Guide says Spike is showing Ink Master then

 

[Wario64]

supposedly a Bioshock display

Snoop's chair

 

[Seda]

Correct.

 

[gaming_noob]

The OP must be confused. Just 4 hours and 6 min to go.

 

[PsihoPerihelion]

That can only mean Halo 4 its gonna win GOTY. Right, guys?



Guys?

Spoiler

XCOM got robbed

 

[Takamura-San]

What are the chances of Respawn's game being announced?

Can you see this on an iPad?

 

[Wario64]

The OP must be confused. Just 4 hours and 6 min to go.

8 PM EST is the preshow (i believe). Also, it's 1 hour. Or 2 hours.

 

[Nirolak]

What are the chances of Respawn's game being announced?

Well, it was on EA Partner's marketing list for this fiscal year, so it's not impossible.

The rest of the list seems to have come true, outside of a Populous game that was since canceled.

 

[legacyzero]

What are the chances of Respawn's game being announced?

I'd say slim.

It would be a nice surprise.

 

[Lakitu]

Is anyone actually going to watch for the awards?
