The Game Award 2020

[Scoops]

So, this is happening tomorrow and I doubt a lot of people really care about it as an award show, but as a games conference, there's usually one or two really good announcements. This year's possible being a PS5 exclusive Silent Hills with Kojima back as director and a MGS remake done by Bluepoint.

So yeah, if you're interested, we can use this thread to speculate winners/trailers/etc.

Here are links to the streams:

I’m over here in a corner rocking back and forth trying to summon Elden Rings into existence.

For those that don’t know, it’s open world Miyazaki Dark Souls made with George R.R. Martin.

I'll catch highlights, but last year's show was such a drag (with a lousy Fast and the Furious game being treated as a major deal) that I'm not subjecting myself it again.

An insider could tell me Nintendo's revealing Sora, Crash, Master Chief, & Kratos for Smash and I'd still be hesitant to watch it.

As far as awards proper, I hope Ori gets Art Direction and Score while Hades or Ghosts of Tsushima nab GOTY.

I might watch to see Lyn Inaizumi perform.

I'll probably have it on muted and look when Smash Bros. news or something else interesting happens.

Not gonna watch and just wait for the reveal trailers to drop on my YT feed.

Also hoping TLOU2 wins GOTY to see all the haters lose their minds.

Really I'm still confused what the hell the point of the Game of the Year thing is supposed to be when they have a separate, broader vote also for it. Like, I don't see how whatever it was that won last year is actually the winner when Three Houses won the other vote.

I think the game is amazing too and I would be more than okay with it winning. Plus, as a Sony fanboy, it winning with Ghost of Tsushima winning the fan vote would be a win for Sony.

Streets of Rage 4 for Game of the Year.

What do you mean it isn't nominated?!

[BorneAgain]

In terms of the games themselves I'd say Ghost of Tsushima and Hades are most deserving of GOTY. Animal Crossing lacked too much initial content and Doom Eternal, FF7 Remake, and Last of Us 2 all fall into solid but unspectacular.

Ghost of Tsushima should win it

If I had to guess who The Smash Character reveal is, probably Fortnite

[Harry The Arrow was Wrong!]

Hell yes. Well deserved. Laura Bailey was awesome

[häšhtå.gdālėÿ]

Dragon Age Teaser, yes please.

That rouge-lite looked up my ally.

Crimson Desert looks awesome.

Like better than awesome: this looks incredible and I want it now.

TLOU2 was excellent until the ending ruined absolutely everything about it. I need to remember that.

Bethesda: "Hey guys, remember Oblivion? Well, let's do it again!".

Say what you will about EA, but they keep letting Josef Fares make video games and I can't help but respect them for that.

But can you play it on a fridge?
