The Game Awards, sponsored by, among many other brands, Xbox, presented at the Microsoft theater in LA.
Did you really expect a PlayStation first party exclusive to be awarded?

Hell, with the amount of Star Wars Battelfront shilling going on, I'm surprised they didn't give that game at least 3 awards.

Goes without saying, though, it was worth watching for all the middle fingers pointed at Konami. #FuckKonami

It is actually kind of insane how much elitism I see on gaming forums. Or really from any group that groups itself based on liking something that is/was niche. Same shit happens with metal fans. Yes, I get it. Metal has lyrical and melodic complexity. You still can't dance and sing to it like you can Blank Space.

That's one way to do it, but even just googling anything and adding the "reddit" keyword usually works for me nowadays.

To be fair reddit is a shithole anyway. Why can't the kid poke fun at SJW's?

Reddit's always just been 4chan with usernames and a somehow even shittier layout to me. AMAs are kinda cool and informative about various stuffs though even if celebs are obviously just using them as a vehicle to promote their newest thing 9 times out of 10.

Calling reddit trash is like calling the Internet trash. Most of everything is terrible, you just have learn how to filter out the bullshit.

And the "shitty" layout allows me to stumble upon a thread with thousands of posts and still find useful information right on top. It works. Mostly.

It's not the best place to make friends(?), you don't really get to know people and decide if you trust their opinion on certain topics, but at least you don't have to deal with obnoxious forum personas.

The Xbone solution is pretty ingenious though, its a shame Sony isn't copying that method and is instead trying to nickle and dime the fuck out of people. If emulation is working, it should be a no brainer that you can transfer digital PS2 games or put a disc in your PS4, and then download the digital version.

Microsoft can get away with leaving the original Xbox software behind. There was a lot of great Xbox games, but most of that library was better versions of multiplatform games.

News flash Carrie, you can turn down the role!

There's no way this wasn't outlined in her contract before she signed it.

Does it matter?

Everyone knows Batman is against firearms in every way, and yet he's in this really critical publicity shot holding what most people will think is a rifle.

You don't show Batman in that kind of light. He doesn't need to be holding a gun in that shot.
Batman solves problems with intellect, not guns. It just makes him look weak.

Quote
Show me a comic shot of Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman posing for a shot with Batman holding a gun.
Never ever happened. Never.

:expert :neogaf

When called on it, because Batman actually used guns quite a bit in his history (even if he is now written mostly as a strict no kill character) :

Where's Superman and Wonder Woman in that panel? Maybe read my post next time.

Pretty fitting to nitpick on completely arbitrary conditions when you're apparently involved in respecting the "canon" for the sake of itself.

So my dad passed away a few years ago and his partner recently got in touch with me so he could give me some of his stuff that he came across while moving. Most of it was Cher memorabilia from the 70s and 80s, but once I got to the bottom of one of the boxes I found something I hadn't seen since I was a kid: a sword that my uncle brought back from Egypt back in the day. I texted my mom about it and she said that it was cursed and that I need to get rid of it ASAP. I'm not super superstitious, but this thing is starting to freak me out.

What do I do, GAF? I googled around and it looks like I need to burn it, take it to a Catholic priest, or give it away to someone who accepts the curse willingly. Am I already fucked?

Edit: Okay, sorry for the potato quality but my Moto X's camera is borked and all of my roommates are gone. I had to settle for the 3DS camera.

FFVII remake looks like putrid, emo dark garbage  :neogaf

Showing Cloud doing some linear Tomb Raider shit like crawling underneath rubble and sliding past more rubble, all faith is lost that this is going to be a unique game.

Nope. That's what people like to chalk FFVII to be, but it isn't. Cloud is more bitchy or self serving than emo, I never imagined he looked sad or mopey. And most people pin all the "emo" shit on Cloud, the rest of the cast and world itself wasn't super serious grimdark escapades. 

In the remake, look at his face. it looks like hes about to cry at any moment.
