[Cosmogony]

That tittle is a winner.

 

[Skyn3t]

NEVER FORGET

 

[jshackles]

= Stranger Things

Something to do with the cancelled Telltale game maybe? New developer?

 

[dukeoflegs]

What day is it? I don't see a date.

 

[Skyn3t]

Probably will release on Netflix like the last two episodes of Minecraft: Story Mode.

 

[Nelsin]

Finally its about time we have OTs thank you OP!

 

[Serianox]

Can't wait for my ads show to be ocasionally interrupted by a statue sharing cerimony. On a more serious note i'm looking foward to the game reveal by Obsidian.

 

[Strider311]

Can we please see what Rocksteady have been up to? Please???

 

[Ulysses 31]

Can we please see what Rocksteady have been up to? Please???

Another Arkham Batman clone? >.>

 

[Nelsin]

What day is it? I don't see a date.

Thursday Dec 6th 5:30pm PST / 6:30pm MST / 7:30pm CST / 8:30pm EST

 

[Skyn3t]

Can we please see what Rocksteady have been up to? Please???

No Rocksteady and WB Montreal on TGA 2018, unfortunately.

 

[cormack12]

What day is it? I don't see a date.

Woops, just added to top of post. I had another banner I replaced and forgot to check the date was on the map. Doh!

 

[Musky_Cheese]

We should really be paying cormack12

Thanks for the OT.

 

[dukeoflegs]

Thursday Dec 6th 5:30pm PST / 6:30pm MST / 7:30pm CST / 8:30pm EST

Woops, just added to top of post. I had another banner I replaced and forgot to check the date was on the map. Doh!

Thanks. For some reason I was under the impression it was Friday or Saturday.

 

[Zannegan]

I know one of the bigger guys will take it, but Dead Cells has hands-down been my action game of the year.

Thanks, OP. Looking forward to the show.

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

Thanks for the OT cormack12

I'll be here to spew unsolicited opinions.

 

[1inthechamber_]

Not one nomination for "genderfield"?

 

[Raynes]

NEVER FORGET

 

[Strider311]

Another Arkham Batman clone? >.>

I would welcome that. Arkham is one of my most favorite series. Keep them coming.

 

[Guileless]

I'm here for the Doritos jokes and the Anthem trailer.

 

[SirKicksalot]

Lmao they're calling it Avatar: Pandora Rising? James Cameron's Avatar: The Game was a better name.

...I should probably reinstall it, it was decent.

 

[Danjin44]

What I wouldn't give to see Yoko Taro announce his new game in this show.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

This Awards are like MTV Video music Awards?

I mean, that are puke... that only popularity wins and not games with quality?

 

[Graven]

While i'm more inclined to belive it won't happen.

I'm still crossing fingers for a new MK.

 

[hybrid_birth]

Really surprised to see Avatar listed for the show. An Avatar world like Horizon Zero Dawn would turn out cool.

Don't know if highest grossing movie of all time would equate into video game sales.

 

[CatLady]

I went to the first Jeff Keighly TGA show a few years ago and it was really fun even though I didn't agree with most of the winners they put on a great show. Tickets were only $25 then plus they had to pay a bunch of seat-fillers to fill up the Microsoft theater.

This year I got an e-mail and a phone call letting me know that as a previous attendee I could get tickets at the special price of $70 or ONLY $200 for the VIP package, TGA has come a long way in a few short years. I'll be watching it at home on Mixer and popping in here for free and probably disagree with all the winners as usual

BTW: Really nice OT, cormack12

 

[Lastyou1]

Add Avengers Project to the list in the OP, DanielPRK confirmed it on Twitter, abd this guy was the first to predict the dates for Captain Marvel and Avengers 4 trailers...

 

[Caffeine]

While i'm more inclined to belive it won't happen.

I'm still crossing fingers for a new MK.

WB has been quiet anyway lately.

 

[Meesh]

Go Monster Hunter and Octopath!!!

 

[tsukioni]

Very excited for the show and can't wait to see the game announcements.

If a new Metroid Prime happens then I'll finally have to pick up a Switch.

 

[Meesh]

But... Octopath!! Zelda!!! Smash!!! Xenoblade!?
There's a lot of love on Switch right now, and right this minute I think you need that love!

 

[Alexios]

If a new Metroid Prime happens then I'll finally have to pick up a Switch.

I mean, it's happening, it's been announced. When and how good are the questions and I doubt any trailer at these awards will answer either conclusively

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[cormack12]

Countdown added

 

[CatLady]

Ooooh I hope this means Phil has more announcements (more studios maybe?) for us!

 

[The Elite]

Countdown timer in OP is wrong.

 

[Sub_Level]

Metroid and Mortal Kombat alone make me excited for this.

Crash Team Racing would just be icing on the cake.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Countdown added

I think you are 3 hours off. Isn't it 8:30 EST?

 

[cormack12]

Panic stations over yeah - I looked at map and used the LA time as EST for some reason

 

[Helios]

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

Imma flip tables if Arc System Works doesn't take home at least one accolade this year.

 

[Dr. Claus]

I have zero interest in any of the rewards. Rarely does it go to a game that genuinely deserves it, but whatever is the most popular/most profitable. I am mostly here for the reveals. BRING ON THE CTR!

Crash Team Racing?

If so, then, YES PLEASE! I still fire up the PS3 and mess with it from time to time. The controls/gameplay still hold up very well to this day.

Make sure you watch it at a friends house

Some folks have been getting gigantic orange dice telling them something is coming at TGA 2018. Many are speculating a CTR announcement.

 

[Helios]

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

I'll just set up a ceremonial table specifically for this purpose.

 

[Javthusiast]

OMG. I wanted a crash remaster since the crash bandicoot remasters have been announced. ( Cause we all know CTR is the superior mario kart. xD )

 

[ThatStupidLion]

sooooo Farcry: post apocalypse?
