I think, whether we like it or not, Call of Duty: Ghosts and/or Battlefield 4 stand a good chance at getting nominated for something. Either Game of the Year or best multi-platform game. Unless they're being released "too late for awards season." <.<

I feel like the only one who thought GTA5 was okay.

GTA5 should not win. I agree with the vid posted before, beyond overrated.

Same here, GTA 5 is a really good game, I just think that The Last of Us is a better choice IMO.

Most anticipated game needs to have Smash 4 added (and win).

Iam so sick of everyone at school being all like "ermagerd! geeteeAfive iissss ssssoooooo aaammmaaazzzzziiiinnnggg!!!! lets all skip school and play it!!! Wooo!!!! School is dumb!!!"

EVERY. DAY. ALL. DAY.

GTA 5 is fun but lacks a good story.

Though I dislike the GTA series and don't find it good.

And besdies, If it is overrated, it isn't the best as the title of Game of the Year would imply, now would it? Something would be better.

I love how this topic is slowly turning into a GTA 5 hate topic.

All the games developers that paid money to win.

If this was true, than The Walking Dead wouldn't have won last year, and the excuse for a game called Assassins Creed 3 would've. If Watch Dogs or AC IV gets nominated and wins, than you'll be right.

I would expect the walking dead season two to also be on the nominees of best downloadable game, but only if it comes out before the year ends.

By the time of VGAS, only episode 1 will be released, so that's a no-go. Maybe 2014 VGAs though.

Bump Day! Decided that this might be useful soon as the VGAs inch ever so closer.

Bump, VGX Announced!

A good video to watch in relation to the VGA's...and no, it's not a prank, there is an actual video after the Dragonzball Pee Pee clip:



Anyway, regarding my picks, I might post them later on in the year. Still have games to play.

Where the hell is pokemon?

It got nominated for best RPG and Handheld game

Well, all in all, the VGX Awards were crap. Wasted three hours of my life, for the most part.

GTA V won.

Most of the games that won I either hated or never played. Also how can the Last Of Us beat GTA V in the Playstation Game Of The Year yet lose to GTA V in the Game Of The Year? GTA V soundtrack better then Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch?

the better question is why idiot gamers would think GTAV is better than The Last of Us or Bioshock Infinite. Both of those games proved video games can be art because of their amazing story, narrative, and presentation. All GTAV did was create the same thing but with a fresh coat of paint and bigger world. But stupid gamers will still think "OMG GTA 10/10 EVERYTHING ELSE SUX" and not give a crap about the games that really deserve the award.

Sorry if I sound stupid, but I'm just so frustrated that GOTY still went to GTAV and not any of the other games that clearly deserved it.

This was easily the worst awards show I've ever seen. and it's not just because of that reason.

The biggest disappointment was that Nintendo's big announcement was only Cranky Kong. Which we already knew about because of a leak. >.>

this. I can't believe Nintendo overhyped something like this when they could have easily revealed it in a Nintendo Direct or new trailer. This huge hype had me thinking it was going to be a new Zelda or Metroid game for Wii U. Extreme letdown on Ninty's part. :/

At the very least, Reggie gave a shout out to the "Reggie for Smash" petition AGAIN, so we KNOW Sakurai is keeping an eye on it. Guys, sign that damn petition, we need Reggie in Smash (I made a topic with the details not too long ago).

I wouldn't mind - only they TOTALLY teased us by having Reggie wear that Samus pin, and he nearly said "of course" when asked about a new Metroid.

What about Tales from the Borderlands or Game of Thrones? Those were my favorite reveals of the night.

Ni No Kuni beats all

I thought they were pretty cool. though Telltale has got a LOT on their plate now.

Personally my favorite reveal was for No Man's Sky. that game looked freaking gorgeous.

I thought the Borderlands reveal was enough for the Telltale fans. It was just really unfair making the big, unlockable announcement ANOTHER Telltale game. Not everyone plays the recent Telltale games. I don't watch the Walking Dead, or the Game of Thrones. Nor have I played Borderlands. And I am not a minority.

And the problem is. Telltale use the same idea for all of these games, pretty much. They're interactive graphic novels. That's great, and I don't doubt they are good at what they do, but I'd rather an actual, legit GAME be announced at the video GAME awards, not a graphic novel for fans of a TV show. Maybe the Borderlands one will have more to it, but again, not everyone loves Borderlands, and it was all the Telltale fans needed in the first place. The slot for one of the Telltale games should of been filled by something else.
