Sounds fucking terrible
-
There are usually some relevant games announced at this thing. Stuff that won't even be out for at least another year and probably isn't worth getting excited for yet.
I'm guessing a new Bethesda game announcement, the third Batman Arkham game, and something from Valve, I guess. Or The Next Great Sequel in the Saint's Row Franchise.
-
So what you're saying is that the chance of anything of interest being revealed is slim.
Unless seeing a bunch of game journals and PR people getting together to jack each other off is of interest.
-
Was too busy laughing at Nintendo.
:rofl
-
Also no next-gen tease at all.

I know this is really annoying (I hate when people do this), but I just got wind of a game being announced tomorrow/tonight and... Wow.
Rockstar,Valve,Nintendo excluded
"For hard-core gamers this is the first place you will ever see those new games," says the show's executive producer Mark Burnett. "Imagine if the Academy Awards was on and they announced five movies that no one has ever heard of. That is the equivalent. You will be on a rip-roaring, two-hour ride of television."

I'll skip those two hours of television and watch the trailers when they are inevitably posted to Youtube within an hour of airing.

Man I'd love a great new Doom game. I mean I liked Rage for Pete's sake.
RAGE, despite it's boring open-world content, was incredibly fun when it was just a fast-paced shooter.
-
Some of their teaser trailers have been good. Shame the show has always been super garb

This is what's wrong with games journalism.
:geoff
-
the first place I will ever see those games is when I refresh gaf after the whole thing is over
also, it would be pretty random to have 5 random movies announced at the academy awards and people would probably find it to be tasteless at an awards ceremony :lol
-
it's Just Cause 3 from Avalanche Studios.

Phantom Pain was awesome
-
Phantom Pain looks like you gots super mind powers. Something like Second Sight and Psi-Ops.
-
I stepped out after the South Park trailer. Did I miss anything other than Phantom Pain?

Orchestra stuff was great
:bow

Metro trailer was sweet.

People think Phantom Pain is a viral thing for Metal Gear Solid. Apparently Moby Games Studio is a Swedish developer, but no one works there, or something.
from its site:
Welcome to MDS
Groundbreaking games from Sweden
Our goal is to deliver an uncompromising, exciting and touching game experience to people all around the globe.
Moby Dick Studio is a game developing company operating out of Stockholm, Sweden. Moby Dick Studio was founded by CEO Joakim Mogren who after years of working for a major American developer brought together people out of various game studios from around the Scandinavian area to start something new.
We will shortly be disclosing information regarding our first major release.

Sounded pretty cool until I found out it was a Metal Gear Solid 5 viral bullshit. Oh well.
-
The Castlevania trailer really confused me. Why the hell is Gabriel pissed off? :shrug
-
yeah, Phantom Pain is definitely sounding like an MGS thing.
not a great video source:

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

That trailer broke GAF.
-
Can we get a proper PC release this time?
-
the phanthom pain thing was interesting and Dark Souls 2? :o
-
unless I'm missing something, three more game announces, or four if Kojima's viral thing doesn't count.
but oh man, Dark Souls 2 :bow2 :bow2 :bow2
-
lol, the xbox app said Persona 4 "Reach Out To The Truth" was as classic as Castlevania or Mega Man 2
-
Phantom Pain is definitely Metal Gear. The trailer has Kojima's fingerprints all over it.
I honestly think a fire whale is something kojima would come up with :lol
-
I like how much trouble he went through to do it, and people figured it out in two minutes. It's admirable, nonetheless.
-
And now a tribute to our men and women in the military....from Linkin Park. :usacry :usacry :usacry :usacry :usacry :usacry :usacry

I think they count all the trailers as announcements. no way we get anymore unannounced games
nvm i thought it was only an hour
-
I really hope it is'nt a MG title. It looks far more interesting then anything MG would be to me.

Bioshock looked good. Maybe the first 1 I actually like.
And yeah I honestly thought we would see some Half Life anouncement.

I would fuck the SHIT out of Robert Kirkman. What a hunk. Fuck.

there was supposed to be a classic game revival announcement or something
why are these awards and music getting in the way of the commercials

you act like big games aren't announced at the VGAs
Skyrim was announced at the VGAs. The Force Unleashed 2 was announced at the VGAs. Valve's hubris is unmatched.
-
Valve fans...it's time to talk. She hasn't paid attention to you for years. She's squeezed out a few projects here and there, but mostly only sure bets like Portal 2 and DOTA and hats. It's time to let her go. If she comes back on her own, then you can get excited, but it's best to just put her out of your mind.
-
I also have a feeling that whenever Half Life 3 is announced it won't be at a VGA events. I think Valve probably thinks that a half life 3 announcement can stand on its own or is more suited to a traditional slot at E3 or something.
-

It depends on where they'd announce it at E3. Left 4 Dead 2 was at the Microsoft thing. And Portal 2, while not an announcement, had a dedicated thing at Sony's thing.
Portal 2's announcement was a crazy ARG thing patched into Portal 1. I guess that's why people take everything as a hint.
and I thought the star wars mention was a dead giveaway that the previous post was a joke. but whatever!
personally, I wouldn't mind another situation like Portal 2. I never get involved in it but I thought it was hilarious how cryptic Valve was and how the fans cracked it all.
-
apparently Phantom Pain was not shown in the rerun, kojima troll confirmed :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
-
And the title has spaces to fit Metal Gear Solid V in it, or something like that.
now I'm just confused if there's a Metal Gear Solid 5 and Ground Zeroes or they're both the same game.

Now, this could be a coincidence and unrelated. If not, that means Kojima's been planning this for over 3 years :lol

Fuck, I find myself agreeing with etoilet on something. Well, time to drink some bleach I guess
-

And he would probably return the favor by blowing you.
Because that's what MG is these days. Kojima just blowing his fans by giving them crap after crap with further stupid retcons that further convolutes this shit up. The series was over, why the fuck do you want anymore? There's no more interesting story to tell. Let the man make some other games.
Hell the trailer for this game? That looked like a cool horror game. A new horror game by Kojima? That sounds cool. But nope it will be another shitty Metal Gear that shits on what came before that fans will eat up.
-
Did u see Robert Kirkman, Shaka? Would you fuck the ever living shit out of him?
Robert Kirkman is a totally bangable bear, real talk. He's so close to the ideal bear image I'm shocked he's not in bear porn, let alone gay.
-
hey, guess what?
:hehe new metal gear game is coming out :hehe
: :elephant :elephant :elephant :elephant :elephant :elephant
i don't think the mystery was supposed to be too tough to unravel
-
I DVRd the live broadcast of the awards so I could fast forward through later and watch the trailers. Awesome.
-
Wait, MGS5 is being made in Sweden?
-
Glad I decided to go to bed early, watched this crappy show for three years in a row and was disappointed every time. And not for only the likely reasons.
If MGS stops selling, Konami'll probably throw in the towel on gaming altogether and officially become what they already are unofficially: a Yugioh company
Fixed
-
Ehn, I'm going by their financials, and they don't own Yugioh, they just license it.
Lameness.
There's Konami sports gyms?
-
MGS5 and Ground Zeroes are separate games. Likely one is being done at KojiPro in Japan while the other is being done at that new studio Konami formed in California. Konami probably wants yearly or near-yearly releases for Metal Gear going forward, given it's the only game property they have worth a damn in sales anymore. Castlevania obviously didn't go as well as they'd hoped, what with LoS2 being confirmed as the last one in that series and all.

All this time I thought Ground Zeros IS MGS5.
WTH
-
Gradius VI before konami give up pls. G.Rev can't be expensive hires, let them do it.
-
Winning Eleven has fallen off really hard in the last few years. From what I'm told, deservedly so.
Its really bad, the menu stuff is prob the same they used last gen.
The localisation is just such a mess you wont believe it, a normal game has separate strings for everything but Konami somehow thinks its a good idea to have variables everywhere. I guess their idea was to ensure naming is consistent or to save money on translation but this doesnt work at all.
Ofcourse this might work in Japanese but in every other language this is an utter grammatical disaster. Sometimes to hilarious results where some word could be used in two instances, but it doesnt mean anything in mine. Some strings where just made of variables like 4 in a row, oh the horrible things i have seen.
Prob the most messed up stuff ive seen.

so did i miss anything, or was it a general "lol end of gen here's a couple of games"

so did i miss anything, or was it a general "lol end of gen here's a couple of games"
look at it this way: nearly everything from Sony and Microsoft is in the first half of the year, except maybe Beyond. nearly every third party release excludes Wii U, most likely because they've been in development for some time. everyone is wrapping up.
-
If MGS stops selling, Konami'll probably throw in the towel on gaming altogether and officially become what they already are unofficially: a sports gym company.
They still got their arcade division! At least the Bemani branch seems strong considering how they keep releasing yearly updates and new games.
-
I like the Kojima is trying to pull a MGS2-esque bait and switch again but it's just nearly impossible in this day.

Konami's baseball games still do decent as well, but yeah, they don't have much anymore outside a few key IPs.

bioshock wishes it could be Zombie Revenge
-
the post mortem on that game is gonna be an awesome read
-
i thought i heard Ken Levine is kind of a douche around the time Bioshock 1 came out.
i never played System Shock, but I would've liked to see that instead of Bioshock sequels.
-
It was just jarring and made the game look weak. They cut from an early (intentionally awkward) cutscene to a boring battle from later in the game. The enemies are heavies (why they soak up damage) who don't engage the player since they're focused on fighting another faction. The previous footage all looked dynamic and awesome. Here, you have a guy parked on a rail shooting rockets at people.
-
i never played System Shock, but I would've liked to see that instead of Bioshock sequels.
System Shock 2 is god-tier. Tough, hardcore, scary. No hand-holding, no friendly NPCs to break the tension, no cutscenes, and a raving AI that insults you every step of the way. I recommend digging it up and giving it a go.
-
Yeah System Shock 2 is easily one of the best games ever made.
-
And it's got an awesome soundtrack:

It is possible, yes, although it might take some tweaking/mods.
-
I've played Deus Ex on 64-bit Win 7 although I think I had to do something special to run it in high resolution.
-
If you guys are talking about running System Shock 2, just recently there was a breakthrough on running it on modern machines. http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=140085
For Deus Ex you just need to get an updated renderer: http://kentie.net/article/dxguide/
There's also a mod that came out recently called New Vision that's supposed to update the graphics in places: http://www.moddb.com/mods/new-vision
