I thought VGA 10 was pretty awesome...more credible than E3 IMO....

Jeez, no matter what happens in this industry we love, there's always negativity....

KingKevo4168d ago

And in the end it's still a show that is meant to entertain and I was fully entertaint. Of course it's a bit over the top sometimes, but it's a pleasent combination of a not boring and not ordinary award show and videogames.

Wrong-Giving people their award on the red carpet. They thought it was a joke completely disrespectful.
Wrong-The interview with Jennifer Hale.
Right-The ochestra they hired, but they should have done more with that.
Wrong-Putting sam in game's, precious time that should have been used for more awards.

"Right: The Walking Dead: The Game, Game of the Year."

No...wrong

A game like that only won because it had more of a fanbase spilt into three differnt types of media. Comics, TV Series and the Video Games. People who only read comics for example would vote for it just because it's the walking dead despite not playing on it.

It's good don't get me wrong but it's nothing special, very over rated. If it had been Journey fair enough, I mean I don't understand how it won Best downloadable for example but didn't win GOTY.

For me it's the actual lack of world premieres...Tomb Raider, Bioshock, Last of Us, South Park, Gears of War we already knew about. The only surprizes were Demon Souls, Lord of Shadows 2 and The Phantom Pain.

Plus I have no idea where the hell that game "Old school gamers" would enjoy like Geoff teased weeks before the show.

listenkids4168d ago

Journey didn't win best downloadable, and it was just a short beautiful game that didn't take 7 months to complete or get attached to the characters.

Reibooi4167d ago

The game for old school gamers was probably Dark Souls 2. Alot of old school gamers love the Demon/dark souls series because of the difficulty and that was probably what he was referring to.

Dark-soul4168d ago

waklking dead is my favorite game, together with dark souls :)

sway_z4168d ago (Edited 4168d ago )

Yes!!

...and if 'Journey' had won game of the year (being exclusive to PS3) the haters would still be hating ....right?

Walking Dead Game is more entertaining than another point and shoot game o_o

Best Graphics of the 2012..

Halo 4
At least they got one award right ;-)

Now we'll have to see how much the Master Collection will add to those numbers.

Number1TailzFan189d ago

Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.

Stanjara189d ago

...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.

Minute Man 721189d ago (Edited 189d ago )

Are they counting every game?

Edit: they did

Nyxus189d ago

Yes, these are total lifetime sales of the entire series.

ApocalypseShadow189d ago

.... mostly with the help of PlayStation.

Michiel1989189d ago

Get that Sony tramp stamp while you're at it. No one asked

Yea I don’t get why they’re allowing old reviews to be posted here. Someone did one on Soul Reaver and I got so excited thinking there was some stealth release of an HD Remaster, but no… it’s just someone who had a slow day posted an old review…

Cacabunga205d ago

I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that

micdagoat19205d ago

I do wish they would remaster all the soul reavers

micdagoat19205d ago

it was done this morning though

goldwyncq205d ago

The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.

Chocoburger205d ago

This review arrived just in time for launch. Perfect timing!

RupeeHoarder205d ago

Amazing how bad this game looks already. We keep acting like this gen doesn't feel like an update but I think we're starting to see it.

YourMommySpoils205d ago

Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.

RupeeHoarder205d ago

It most certainly does not lol.

andy85205d ago

Have you player Cyberpunk since the first day? It's absolutely stunning now

One of the worst games ever made. Absolute overhyped trash!

Snowb420205d ago

The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.

Shane Kim205d ago

The game started really strong in that hospital, but after a couple of hours I wondered if it was even an mgs game I was playing.

KyRo204d ago

The hospital section was the only bit that felt like a MGS game.

MGS4 was the ending for me. I totally ignore the fact 5 exists. It didn't need to exist tbh
