will anyone here actually be watching the Game Awards?
Nah. Nothing to look forward to imo. Absolute biggest thing they could drop is like, idk a Switch 2 reveal? And if they do, it'll be on every gaming website half a frame after it gets shown off.

If there's any DLC announcements for any games I'm interested in, same deal.

I haven’t forgotten about that comic I promised, btw. I’ve been super busy with finals, but the semester is wrapping up in a week. I can get to work on it soon.

It’s called The Bet :nifty:

Probably not. I really only watch it if I know for a fact something I care about will be announced.

I do know the final Tekken 8 S1 DLC character will be revealed at the TGA. Considering this character wasn’t in the story, I’m guessing it’s going to be a crossover.

Like, they said they wouldn’t do crossovers this easin. But they also said Heihachi was permanently dead, so they shouldn’t be surprised that I dont trust that statement at all. :4pacman:

They only roll out the big carpet like The Game Awards for certain characters that would get the whole internet talking

Geoff Keighley keeps mentioning how this is the 10 year anniversary of the game awards, when he is neglecting his past of producing The Spike TV Game Awards.

He shouldn't run from his past of okaying the "Best Cyber Vixen" Award.

Unironically though, it did have much better categories for performance, with not only with 4 best performance categories but also, best voice and best cast. There was also "Character of the year" which could also be a fun category to bring back.

just like, get rid of the gendered categories, and split up mocap and non-mocap and you could have a pretty wide variety of nominations. Best mocap lead, best mocap supporting, best non-mocap lead, best non-mocap supporting and best cast.

I hope her pickaxe is just a big spring onion I can wack people with that would be funny.

after this I hope Miku collabs with Minecraft and eventually (though much, much less likely) Super Smashing Fighters

also Touhou is hard I'll never get to fight Flandre :drsad: (I haven't given up but geez Sakuya and Remilia slow down with the bullets :mad:)

The growing graphical concerns for Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is telling me to continue passing on this game and continue playing Nikoderiko instead.

Ok maybe I need my eyes checked but, for some reason, the moon looks like its phase is rotated 90° and it looks like and eye in the sky

Maybe my stress is getting to me. Yeah. Imma just chalk it up to my brain telling me to relax

The Minecraft Launcher let me play Minecraft Legends and Dungeons for free.

I'm not sure if there's any information about this being a holiday thing or whatever, I've seen no announcements. I haven't bought either game (except I used to own Dungeons on my old, stolen account; still have it installed but haven't bought it on my new account, so it'd tell me to buy it), but tonight I noticed the play button said "Install" for Legends and "Play" for Dungeons instead of "Buy Now" or whatever, and sure enough, I could launch and play both for free.

so, uh, thanks Mojang, please don't take muh games away if it's a glitch :>

I don't hang out with hardcore DK fans, what are the concerns?
will anyone here actually be watching the Game Awards?
I have a life meaning I'd be asleep when they're going on or waking up right when they finish. But if I didn't have a life... I'd still do better things with my life lmao

I'll watch the Muppets clips and probably keep an eye out for the Tekken 8 news (assuming it's a Guest Character), but that will really be it.

I work until 9pm EST M-F and when I have to drive home from the Office it takes me about 45 minutes, so I don't usually get home until 10pm. If things are slow, I'll probably secretly have my Twitter/BlueSky apps open, but that's about it. I'd rather randomly browse Wikipedia or clip online coupons tbh.

Every time Nintendo shows a new trailer, there seems to be a flaw absent from the Wii version like the background ocean in one level looking worse and inconsistencies in fur quality to name a couple . There are many YouTube videos on this matter.

Also, it seems you can see the texture seem right below DK's neck in this. https://x.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1863991593302130827

I won't be watching considering I will be asleep at the time.

But I should be able to find out who is the next DLC character for Tekken 8 (and hopefully some Mai Shiranui gameplay for Street Fighter 6 and maybe some Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves news) by the next day.

Chris Evans has been casted for Avengers Doomsday…if he ain’t old Cap then idk who else he could be
