GameTrailers TV will be showcasing none other than Battlefield 3 tonight.
Geoff Keighley will be covering one of the most anticipated shooters this year.
IGN today announced that it has acquired GameTrailers, the venerable video-centric site that launched in 2002 and was shut down in February by its parent company, Defy Media.
Its a good thing they did, but its only because GT has a large fan-base. Which IGN wants.
Edit: @One-Shot Yeah but they will always look for more ways to expand and get more people watching them over Gamespot.
I was watching sometimes Game trailers... for me gamespot and IGN are to immature and reviewers dont know how to play games there (like they really are noobs, watch any sim racing review.. like done with a controller without a wheel).
Best for gamers to watch uncommercialized private youtube videos like Angry Joe show, inside sim racing etc... they are 4 times longer, played by gamers for gamers!
IGN is like commercial full with childish opinions... thanks for saving GT trailers anyway!
I will give it a go, as long as they don't bring over that complete door knob, Max Scoville from PlayStation Beyond, to completely ruin it with his fake persona and BS knowledge of gaming.
I think IGN just wanted their video player.
There's no way anyone ever liked the abomination IGN is using.
Interesting, but GT's competition buying the name and video library isnt quite the revival I think most fans were hoping for. It's like when WWF bought WCW. Wound up being WCW in-name-only. They buried it, creatively.
Most of those GT guys reformed as EasyAllies I believe. Need them back to make it truly mean something. Not much faith in an IGN "raw/smackdown" brand extension. In the end it's still IGN.
You have respect for IGN, an unethical corrupt company of scumbags making a business deal on the downfall of another to get more users to make profit for themselves???
Why would you give them respect just for buying something that someone else created? IGN will ruin gt just like they did there own site. It's just a name now.
It gave uncharted a 9 does that count for anything or a 10 from them would change ur mind about them
Former GameTrailers Staff have decided to come together to create their own company.
Good for them. I wish them all the best of luck and every success for the future.
I shall be tuning in to their shows with great enthusiasm :)
They always had some great stuff and I think it's safe to say that when GameTrailers shut down that everyone felt it. Won't be shocked to see bigger stuff from them as their goals are being reached quickly.
one reason i hated Game Trailers last gen was because of their huge bias towards 360. Switched footages, zooming on the grass blades to make PS3 games look inferior was what made me stop going there. Otherwise, i used to go there for my game trailer dosages. and of course, YouTube also happened.
Having said that, i wish them all the best.
HuberxBosman confirmed. Shenmue hype engaged. For real though, Bosman's show at its best was one of the best game shows going. Dry, sarcastic and glorious.
Shenmue hype is so real. I can't wait for them to actually get their hands on it and see what happens.
Totally agree...it was actually the only legitimately funny gaming related content I've personally ever seen, and I've seen quite a bit. Never really laughed out loud at anything else, but Bosman had so many great bits & was edited perfectly. Hope they get to be even more free w/ their content & create the stuff they want to create w/o corporate oversight.

That's great news. I'm pretty sure if those guys get together whatever they do will be worth watching.
A new video-focused channel supported by Kickstarter or Patreon?
I'm happy to watch whatever Kyle Bosman does next.
Kyle was pretty much the only reason I visited that site. But I'll definitely give this new one a shot.
Nice will put it to record so i can watch it at 10.
