Well the gaming industry's only main stream awards show is tonight.
Now, while the awards themselves were what use to bring me in in the past, the fact that they left deciding the award winners to fan vote this year means I don't care about the awards, Modern Warfare 2 will sweep all the awards it is in.
What I AM watching for is the world debuts. Geoff Keighley even tweeted that within the first 5 minutes of the show, there would be an epic world debut, so epic that everyone involved with the show had to be held under strict lock and key.
I think the only three games worthy of such a privacy are Grand Theft Auto 5, Metal Gear Solid 4 heading towards 360, and, for realz this time, the official announcement, with full live gameplay and everything, of Duke Nukem Forever/Duke Nukem: D-Day.
Other world debuts we know of include a new Star Wars game(possibly called Star Wars: Legends, a game name recently submitted to the ESRB and has warnings of extreme violence and gore), a new Rock Band, possibly Rock Band: Green Day, Halo: Reach, Crackdown 2, a new Tron game, Medal of Honor, and UFC 2010 Undisputed.
So anyone else going to watch? By the way, remember that this year it'll be aired live around the world, as well.

I honestly believe that this makes the industry look like nothing short of a tool.
I'll just wait until tomorrow where ALL the trailers will be on GameTrailers.com. Could care less about the awards itself.

Of course another game I think most people either forgot and let slip to the far reaches of their minds is: {Spoiler}A full on remake of Final Fantasy VII using the graphics engine from FF13.

THEY'RE GONNA ANNOUNCE SHENMUE III! ... Eh, probably not. Extreme violence and gore? In a Star Wars game? That is interesting. As for the awards themselves... yeah, Modern Warfare 2 will win every award it's been nominated for and probably the rest of them as well, making the award portion of the show null and void because as far as I'm concerned, Modern Warfare 2 does not deserve any awards besides the one for the most ridiculously overhyped game released this year. If such an award doesn't exist, it damn well should. And... wait, what? Rock Band: Green Day? Damn, at least the GH and RB spinoffs so far have featured good or at least decent bands.

Meaning it is a violent game, but not TOO violent.

So, the debut, is it a title that's never been announced before, or one that might have been named before? That kinda gives me kinda hope for New Vegas.

I guess, seeing how they are including Halo: Reach and Crackdown 2 as world debuts, despite us knowing about BOTH games since E3, I guess it could be New Vegas, which comes out this summer, doesn't it?

Oh, right I forgot to mention this in the PS thread, but why is the knife from The Golden Child in Uncharted 2?!?!
And Black wins Voiceover for Jack Black in Jack Black: The Game.

Could be the "This Is Vegas" game that Midway was working on before they shut down. Maybe they have a new company they're working with, so they re-titled it.
