Spike VGAs Thread: [Update: FINALLY a funny joke descends upon the show post #4807]

Neuromancer said:
I am hoping for a horror action adventure game from Del Toro, emphasis on the adventure part.

I'm cautiously hoping for a third-person Undying with more spirals, also QTE face-smashing.
 
Prepare for a month of Twitter updates leading to one of the most painfully awkward events in gaming.
Yeah, pretty much.


Also, I don't want to see anyone who showed his disdain for hype in the "Is hype bad" thread in here. Except you want to be unmasked as a hypocrite. :o

We've seen gameplay already.

They get over 120 requests a year apparently so they can be very picky. :lol
:lol :lol :lol indeed

either they're crappy at picking or there's a fucking ton of worse choices to be made.
 
What an interesting thread. I'm not sure who is confirming trailers/reveals that aren't in the show, but it won't be long now until we start sharing details. Until then I would proceed cautiously with your hype :)
 
SAINTS ROW 3 OH GOD

I'll watch this crap just for the announcement teaser. I doubt we'll see much significant stuff but I can't wait to see what Voli has planned. :D

I expect nothing. I hope for something good though; R3/Uncharted 3 good.
 
This will be my third year to watch, I hope it gets better but I still think it's going to suck. Last year's wasn't as bad as the year before, but the big reveals basically equate to CG footage that tells you nothing.

Awards also seem to be handed to whatever the biggest, baddest mainstream title is that'll get the most thumbs up from their crowd.
 
Please del Toro game...

Will instsall Saints Row 2 later to calm the open-world crime satire itch I've been having. Though San Andreas would work too...

Oh, so neither of these games are set for VGA reveals? They plot thickens.

Dunno what to think about the VGAs. They seem like the teen choice awards to the GDC's oscars. But they also have the benefit of going out to a much wider audience. However, with this audience comes a feeling of lowest common denominator. It's good entertainment, but none the less amusing at points. I would have loved to see Tyson punch the Jersey shore people though :lol

Why must you torment us? It must be some kind of sick fetish.

Apparently THQ just wishes they were in the show really badly. :lol

Interesting. Thanks for the update.

It's been since last Summer since it was mentioned, but there were numerous sources who claimed THQ planned on revealing Saints Row 3 at the VGA's after skipping E3. I still have hope.

Another game we expected to appear at this year’s E3, which didn’t, was THQ’s “totally-in-development” Saint’s Row 3. According to the company’s Danny Bilson, the game is being held back for a December reveal, during the VGAs.

“I’m not going to show it to you today,” Bilson said. “This is the only room we’re talking about Saints Row 3. We’re not showing it on the floor because the rollout starts in December on Saints Row 3."

Maybe things have changed, but it's been 2 years since the release of Saints Row 2 and they're due for a reveal since we know it's been in development for awhile.

Yeah but the quote was

I believe we're going to announce this at the Spike awards in December.

So, not exactly definitive. =(
 
I have this ungrounded, irrational fear that Sony will hold off Starhawk until the launch of PS4, or whatever. Please, guys, tell me that I'm an idiot...

Speaking of last years VGA's: what ever happend to the new Spec Ops?

It might have ended, but there was recently a beta for it so it still exists

It looked kinda fun in the VGA preview

Yeah, the sand effects looked awesome. After VGA I did not hear much about it more though :|
 
Man at this point they'd have to show me GTA5 to get me interested again

Best part of last year was the American commercials in the stream
 
Resistance 3 Gameplay reveal would be friggin' awesome.

JStevenson and the VGA guy (Sorry i dont remember your user name) have been hinting at it.
