I can't bring myself to watch this.  The "awards" are meaningless and the only thing that interests me at all is debut trailers, which I'll just watch on YouTube tomorrow or something.  Award shows are the absolute worst.  At best they're barely tolerable at worst they are flat out torturous.  The VGAs VGX is horrible even by award show standards.

This is just a test post

 

Edit: Ok it worked

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

names of peoples and games from genesis post that is unknown to Gromnir:

 

 

Joel McHale and Geoff Keighley-- vaudeville duo? perhaps a hope and crosby kinda thing? 

Smosh-- sounds like a garage band

Camilla Luddington-- am assuming from context that she is an english model. pictures as laura croft would be less entertaining than seeing what she looked like before teeth were fixed and sans the almost prerequisite b00b job.

Vector Monkey-- another garage band?  am gonna admit that vector monkey would be a kewl band name. am recalling a Berkeley band during the late 80s called Wood is Good-- funny name. 

Reggie Fils-Aime-- this name is vague familiar. somehow recollects to Gromnir the business side o' the industry. 

Rocco and Shawn- the new ren and stimpy?

Destiny- from context am guessing it is a game, but it sounds like the name o' a hip-hop singer.

Rooster Teeth-- see above regarding smosh and vector monkey. vector monkey is still choice #1 for our new ukalele, steel drum and kazoo band... or angry-red zit. 

PEWDIEPEW--NO DOUBT BEING ALLCAPS MAKES THIS PERSON/ORGANIZATION KEWLER BY AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE BEYOND OUR KEN.

 

honorable mention:

 

"Another awesome world premiere..."

 

well, if it is awesome, how can we possibly miss it? "awesome" is one o' those strange words that actually has opposite impact from that which is intended. anything being described as awesome, regardless o' how impressive it actually is or is not, inexplicably wilts or shrivels by some amount proportional to awesomeness o' the description. implied or actual exclamation point(s) multiply the deleterious impact o' awesome.  

 

am feeling old.. but that is ok 'cause we is awesome... AWESOME!

 

HA! Good Fun!

Geoff Keighley is hosting, free carbonated beverages and compressed maize wafers for all!

 

I'm not quite sure why I have antipathy towards the VGAs/ SpikeTV awards. They're basically harmless in much the same way that any music award show that gives Miley Cyrus song of the year is harmless, and I can just ignore those.

Because there aren't many gaming award shows. And from the very few that are acceptable none has the same amount of exposure.

 

Like, the Spike Awards is how the world sees gaming.

 

Granted, that might not be true anymore considering now its just streamed.

Cool, I believe Amazon just confirmed what I wanted to know. There's a listing for Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition for PS4 and XBox One, January 28th, which I think is part of tonight's VGX news.  

 

Two gameplay images show Lara's ponytail using TressFX, and the product description goes on to say ...

 

 

 

See Lara Croft like never before, with every bead of sweat, strand of hair, and article of clothing delivered in obsessive detail

 

Except I have seen her like that before, on my PC. Oh well, I'm compelled to buy this game a third time, for reasons.
