Jack Black was a good choice...

italianbreadman6360d ago

Definitely, but even Jack Black can't save such a worthless production.

They really need to make it about the games, like David Craig said.

INehalemEXI6360d ago

Silver winged lady's handing out trophies was a good choice as well...

FantasyStar6360d ago

Jack Black sucks. Just watching the skits was annoying as ****.

vickers5006360d ago

"Perhaps Spike needs to pay less attention to the Soulja Boys of gaming and more time to the average, hardcore gamer."

Truer words could not be spoken.

Bubble Buddy6360d ago

Well putting more video games in it might be a good start.

Jinxstar6360d ago

I agree. I enjoyed the awards. Minus all the rap and other crap bands(They need Korn in there)I thought it was a good show

KidMakeshift6360d ago

Jack Black's just a white Carlos Mencia

Cenobia6359d ago

I actually thought that was one of the most retarded things about the show. They even made it a theme, of sorts (if you noticed the background graphics). I'm all for hot lady presentators, but painting them silver, slapping on wings, and lowering from the ceiling makes absolutely no sense. Why not do a gaming theme instead? That would make a hell of a lot more sense, and the ladies could be equally as under dressed.

The show sucked all the way around. I hate advertisements that pretend to be real shows. Everyone that stepped on stage was just trying to sell something, or just had nothing better to do. Next time they need to cut out the b-list celebrities and just present the awards (maybe by people actually involved in gaming) and some exclusive reveals that are longer than 5 seconds.

Instead of making it a sideshow, they should try to make it something that the gaming community can actually respect.

I nearly fell asleep. GTA IV won GOTY, every "World Premiere" was only 15-20 seconds long and suffered from extremely poor quality, etc. Waste of time.

cain1416360d ago

That would be the main reason I taped it and fast forwarded through 90%

jemmo6360d ago

Come on guys this is spike tv. The award show was a joke they knew there was a buzz for trailers and game of the year so guess what lets put on crap! The most I watched is when I skipped channels so my children could watch Disney.

Aclay6360d ago

I do agree with the guy that wrote this article when he says that there should be actual game developers giving out awards instead of actors. During the Oscars it's mostly various actors presenting/ giving out awards to other Actors and the VGA's should be the same way.

It would have been way better if more game developers were actually involved in the show itself... instead of that woman introducing World Premires, I would have rather preferred that someone from the game studio itself was there on stage to introduce a World Premire, like Cory Barlog giving an intro to the God of War 3 trailer or Evan Wells giving the intro to the Uncharted 2 trailer.

However, I did like seeing Kim Kardashian, Uncharted 2 and God of War 3 trailers, but everything else to me was pretty meh. Jack Black was o.k., but overrall to me, Jack Black really isn't that funny and I thought that some of the presenters didn't seem to take it seriously.

I basically only watched the VGA's for the Uncharted 2 and GOW3 trailers and didn't care about anything else, after I saw the trailers I turned back to the Dallas Cowboys v.s. New York Giants game on NBC.

S1CKLY6360d ago

it was pathetic to say the least.

never again, spike... never again...

Lombax6360d ago

Yet, I watched it again...

SoloGamer164d ago

🙄 is this all she could come up with for content? sheesh

127maXimus64d ago

Other than looking like that, why does anyone care about what she has to say about anything?

Konami Delists Some Metal Gear Games From Digital Stores Without Warning

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD have been delisted from digital stores without warning.

cloganart86d ago

I mean, it makes sense. With Vol.2 coming and all that

Commentby86d ago

Stupid headline. Should state that they are being updated or discontinued. This makes the crazy people that only read headlines think it some kind of conspiracy to take away peoples already purchased games.

jjb198186d ago

If you want to all of a sudden own them now and haven't played them yet because a remastered is coming out, shame on you. I can't believe people are complaining about this 15 years later when it was bound to happen anyway. "A new remaster is out, quick, I'd better buy the original from the shop."

gigoran885d ago

Gamers: "Physical? who needs physical? everyone knows that digital online games are the future. stop living in the past. we don't need no stinking disc drive"

Same gamers: "How dare the delist a digital game that I own!!!!"

computeSci85d ago (Edited 85d ago )

And? What is your point?

Same gamers: "How dare the retailers to delist (quit selling) a physical game that I own!!!!"

I think you just read the headline and don't know how dilisting works with Sony. It's common knowledge that:

"Players who already bought the games will still have them in their library and can download and play them as usual."

So again, what is your point?

Would be nice if they had New Vegas ready as well, especially because of the show.

Hopefully this doesn't have the same performance issues as Oblivion Remastered.

cloganart127d ago

I haven't seen anything on these performance issues? What's been going on?

walken7126d ago

Probably the Unreal Engine issues, I skipped it for that reason.

Snookies12128d ago (Edited 128d ago )

Throw in all the DLC as well, like Oblivion and I'll definitely bite. I recall having one trophy left to unlock on the PS3 version with 100+ hours in my save. When my save file got corrupted, lol. Very sad day.

To be fair though, Bethesda was trash at Playstation ports anyway.

Michiel1989127d ago

all devs sucked at porting to ps3 for the first like 3 years because no one had experience with the cell architecture. Even 1st party took a long while to get proficient with it, the difference between uncharted 1 and 3 is massive for example.

Extermin8or3_127d ago

Oh oh oh I can do this too. GTA 7 will be made at some point in the future. Fallout 5 will enter development in the future too

jznrpg127d ago

Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.

Christopher127d ago

Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".

BlaqMagiq1127d ago

Can't wait. Won't have to go back to my PS3 to play this when it comes out.
