Is anyone here going to watch the VGA's?

It's on in an hour. I'm going to watch it (at some point), but that's not saying I'm all that excited for it. How about you?

Imma throw it on in the background.

I'm going to watch it but only because of the trailers.

Streaming the pre-show right now. I know it's stupid but I can't wait a second later than necessary for potential BioShock Infinite footage. Bracing for impact thought, expect to be cringing through all but the trailers.

Jesus it's on tonight? I will watch it because I got nothing better to do. I think it's dumb but I don't think it's guilty of war crimes like some people act at the mere mention of it. They always got a couple interesting trailers and I will alt tab to see what's going on. Where can one find a live stream online?

I'm watching the pre-show stream. Bald MIchonne from walking dead is hot

I'm gonna watch, mostly for the trailers. I wonder if the chat will be up again.

There's nothing that interests me more, as a hardcore gamer, than Linkin Park red carpet interviews.

You can watch, or hear right here if you'd like. I'm a bit surprised how much it was talked about in previous years, and now it's not even being mentioned from what I've seen. Not that it's worth everyone's attention, but I'm a little surprised by it.

Haha, Daniel Kaizer (spelling?) couldn't find the Dishonored leads because they were busy chatting up Ken Levine in the background.

Believe one of the mods said no since they want to keep the chat just to giant bomb events and not things like this

Lol the pre show is as terrible as the main show

Watching it now.

I'll check in on it but I'm not watching the whole thing. I can skip the shit and just watch the trailers online.

@Master_Funk: Yeah, it's not good. Although that Justine woman is looking good here, which I don't usually think whenever I see her.

i'm fueled by the dew

Mmmmnope. I can watch the trailers tomorrow and skip through all the crap that the VGAs are infamous for.

@NTM: I've been watching this for a while. Thanks though.

Meh...I guess that makes sense. Then someone should make a tiny chat channel. I wanna be able to talk to people while this show goes on.

These awards never matter, but I'm glad Dameon Clarke won for his performance as Handsome Jack. 

@NTM: I forgot they do a preshow thing. Thanks.

Im not a big fan of giving people awards on the red carpet.

Probably do what I did last year. Watch the game trailers and change the channel during everything else.

Hell yes. I'm just in it to watch the train wreck.

These awards never matter, but I'm glad Dameon Clarke won for his performance as Handsome Jack. 

Watching this is a little embarrassing.

chatting going on here... lets all groan together

"Hey Cliffy, we have an award here for you."

"Oh, really? What's it for"

"For leaving the gaming industry."

Will be waiting 30-45 minutes after it starts so I can fast forward the boring parts. I better make the wait 59 minutes then.

watching the live commentary on gamespot. At least I won't be the only one anknowleging the terrible parts by wantching it over there.

Yeah, but you could kind of tell his dismay with getting the award in the online pre-show. Oh, the voice of Clementine in the Walking Dead just got her award off-stage as well. Oh shit it's Mace Windu!

At least they are showing the award in some capacity.

I'm very glad to know that they did not just give the award to Emma Stone because she's well known, like when Niel Patrick Harris won

There's going to be a "game of the decade" award... Hm.

Oh the joy of watching semi-famous people calling themselves nerds... I just threw up a bit in my mouth. People who call themselves gamers are just as annoying.

That tomb raider chick has got have the most butchered british accent I have ever heard.

Damn, handing awards to these people on the carpet is just awkward.

They waited till 2012 to do this?

@Colourful_Hippie: Oh, it's because it's the tenth anniversary of the VGA's.

@Demoskinos: Me too. I just love how it opened up, and right there is a Dr. Pepper Ten logo in the background. Because of course you want to emphasise that this whole thing is not for women! And the whole giving awards on the "red" (black) carpet is embarrassing and ridiculous.

@Castiel: Someone just did it...

I'm going to give them a chance

Like EVO and pokemon tournaments.

This pre-show is just terrible, it's sad.

I like Geoff Keighley though.

Where can I watch it in the UK?

Cliffy B, The Tony Stark of Video Games. I love Cliffy, but what the hell?

@AlisterCat: I'm watching it here. Hopefully it's available to watch internationally. http://www.spike.com/netstorage/events/video-game-awards/live/

Turned the show on for a minute and immediately see someone saying that shooters are training us for that faithful day where we'll actually have kill people.

Phantom Pain looks interesting. Although I can't help but think the "main character" looks like Snake, and what's up with the fire whale!?

They were talking about zombies. Zombies are not people you dam zombie sympathizer.
