2009 Spike VGA Thread
Wow, as much as I loved Arkham Asylum, I'm disappointed that they're already churning out a sequel..
And Jack Black? ugh...
But I'm super stoked about Arkham 2. Thought Arkham 1 was Mark Hamill's last go at the Joker?
Pinning this for the duration of the show, keep it clean, keep it polite, keep it calm and above all else follow the info found in our guides within the Site Rules & FAQs topic.
Have fun!
I'm sure the praise, and all the money he got quickly changed his mind." @WinterSnowblind: I can stand Jack Black for all of three seconds. But I'm super stoked about Arkham 2. Thought Arkham 1 was Mark Hamill's last go at the Joker? "
I'm sure it'll be great and all, it just seem very soon. And I'm disappointed they're going with the Joker again so soon, surely they could have used Two-Face or someone in this one?
Abandoned Fun Fair looks great though.
" Did they show any world premieres yet? "Sequel to Arkham Asylum, new True Crime.
@WinterSnowblind:
They did hint at Two-Face at the end of the first, so he might have some role in the new game.
" New True Crime.What city is it set in? My darn stream isn't working.
Blah. True Crime has never been a good franchise. "
The live stream is so fucking stupid. Its of single cameras in the audience and shit...they don't even show anything other than the stage. If anyone knows of something better please tell me.

Couldn't recreate the Pick of Destiny charm, eh Jack Black? That's what you get for wearing a crown and cape, indirectly declaring yourself king of video games. Oh, and you also get nine doses of dead, courtesy of Dr. Me.

Ugh, this stream best start working before the Reach reveal!
New Tron game reportedly the "key to unlocking [new Tron film's] mythology".
Game premier rife with men in mo-cap suits and references to some amorphous "grid".
Currently showing the award for Best Action-Adventure game.
Hope it goes to Assassin's Creed or Batman.
Assassin's Creed wins Best Action-Adventure Game award over Batman, Uncharted, and Brutal Legend.
Dudes have some wicked French accents.
Game based on the Spike series "Deadliest Warrior".
There are, reportedly, balance issues between time periods. Hope they get that ironed out. Haha.
" @fisher81 said:Especially if it has early early stuff too. I'm talking like pre-Dookie" I heard something about the new Rock Band being Green Day-based. I feel like I will be the only person in the world excited for it. "make that two people excited for it, green day rock band may be very cool. "
HOW THE FUCK DOES UNCHARTED 2 LOSE BEST ACTION/ADVENTURE?!
HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT FAT FUCK WIN BEST VOICE?!
OMG, I can't believe my original thread saying Spike would sell out would come true.
This shit is some fucked up awards. Please GiantBomb, don't sell out in your GOTY awards this year! >.<

@KaosAngel: At this point i think it was less about selling out and more that the people who gave these awards went to the biggest names (jack black) and most hyped games (ACII) over the ones that actually deserve to win. They might not have gotten paid, it's just ignorance.
HOW THE FUCK DOES NAUGHTYDOG LOSE OUT ON BEST STUDIO AS WELL?!
OMG! I AM SICK AND TIRED OF THIS SHIT!
1. Jack Black best voice over Uncharted 2's two nominees.
2. Uncharted 2 loses to Assassin's Creed 2 to Action/Adventure.
3. NaughtyDog loses best studio?!
THIS IS SOME BULLLLLLLLLLSHIT
