Oh believe me I'm going in with low expectations and even then as long as there's a trailer or footage/gameplay for God of War: Ragnarok, that'll make up for no Smash reveal, besides it'd only be likely another month until the next reveal, time will certainly fly.

Cringes Jesus, I still can't believe how I acted last year...Trying to act better now to atone for my sins.

I just hope that they actually make a god of war game this time. They probably won’t. It will probably be another dark of souls. They got too much critical acclaim for abandoning everything that made the old games fun for them to not do it again.

To put it into words you Nintendo people can understand, this whole situation is like if Sticker Star won game of the year.

Found this cool fan art of the train from the Polar Express movie as a Titan.
"Known as Titanus Suspendisagmen or Polar Train, it appears to be a giant worm who resides in the Arctic Circle until it was woken up by Ghidorah's call."

Yep, I saw that. I never thought anyone would make an OC titan out of that. That's funny and cool at the same time.

Among my headcanon titans is Akhlut. I love the idea of an orca/wolf titan. Mentioning this since it'd obviously be an arctic titan.

Hate it to break it to you Snake but not every game you dislike is a Dark Souls clone.

I still feel like it would have made sense for us to get 3 characters revealed a year since this pass had a up to 2 years distribution rate.So seeing half the characters in the first year and the other half next year would make a lot of sense.


So I could see them slot a reveal here because it be the best time to. Especially if it’s a big character or one related to stuff getting shown at the awards.

Assuming we get something tonight. It could be a tease like how Joker was, then we get a full trailer reveal and release of the character in January.

So guys, I'm just gonna say this about Cyberpunk 2077.

I'm normally a patient person about games and stuff but holy hell. Cyberpunk 2077 is probably going to be the first big release in my life that I might actually abandon right at the start. This game is so badly optimised and looks like ****. I know I'm playing on PS4 original but you have games like Ghost of Tsushima and God of War that look amazing and then you have this!

Cyberpunk 2077_20201210123206.jpg


Like what the actual ****! I know the PS4 OG is outdated but this is just them taking the piss from CDPR. They should have just given up and went to make it a bit more cel-shaded or what. Hell I'd say even the Witcher 3 on Switch looks better than this!

Lining up to be one of the biggest disappointments this gen for me. The gunplay and writing is good and the world is interesting but I can't look at it as the graphics look like a dog's **** bag.

Ghost of Tsushima for comparison. Looks brilliant.

I'm just shaking my head at all this. Thinking of dropping it and play Persona 5 Royal right away.

I'm gonna be sleeping while the game award happen, because it be literally too late for me stay up, so I just have to see in the morning if we got somethin' good or not.

That, and hope for the best, expect the worst, that's the best way to go about it I say.

The main consensus of Cyberpunk is that it's disappointing in graphic fidelity but is still a good game at its core.

If you're gonna drop it just because it doesn't look good, you're disrespecting ol Reggie. :mybodyisreggie:

Well, it's the only game I have an even passing interest in right now so ¯\(ツ)/¯

unless you count Roblox but that's more of a platform than an actual "game" so to speak

Yknow.... with Pokemon's 25th anniversary around the corner, I wonder what they're gonna do for Gen 9, if they're even gonna make a Gen 9 for the 25th anniversary?

If we get something I would expect nothing more then exactly this.

Probably not Gen 9, it’s to early and they definitely aren’t close to finishing it. I think the DLC was chosen to buy the A team time to work on Gen 9 since the B team did the DLC. The B team also does remakes which is why I expect them to be doing Shinnoh ones that release next year.

My bet is we get the older games re released, a few spinoffs, lots of merch, and then Shinnoh Remakes that incorporate a lot of love for all regions.

Porting the DS and 3DS Pokémon games to Switch would be amazing.

Oh, everyone was asking me what the joke was.
So the episode had a side arc about how black people shouldn't change the way they act around white people to appease them, and this one character was really heated and lassionate about it, and it excalated to a Black Panther fight scene parody between her and a character who didn't think it was a big deal, only for the character who was passionate about that topic to completely to completely change the way she spoke when talking to her white landlord. She follows it up by saying "That's different", With everyone in the room watching what happened.

It was actually kinda funny with the buildup and the punchline

Only time I laughed at the show.

I can't wait to see who this is.

Totally worth not falling asleep yet. If anything, at least I got a username idea by 4pm tonight. XD

Considering how the Sword and Shield DLC have been(slowly more open world elements each time) I'm willing to bet whatever game is next is going to try and incorporate open world elements into the entire game, rather than small subsections. Seems to be the direction GF wants to take the mainline games. Would be nice, although if the next game is a remake it might not be the case.

On a separate note: Hey Wademan94 Wademan94 , weren't you conceptualizing a Sonic fighting game recently? There's a Brawl modding project called Sonic Duel that I thought you'd find interesting: Here's a link to the project's YouTube channel.

Certainly has a good chunk of characters I have on my roster as well, I’ll have to look more into this, despite me wanting a more traditional fighter, I can still see a bunch of ideas from this happening.

Oh boy, it's indeed happening. Just hoping they won't wait until the very end to announce who it is, not to keen on staying up until 5am. Does anyone know when Joker was announced?

Wasn't it in the middle of the presentation? I remember how the lights "randomly" shut off and they played the trailer.
