The terrible, cringe worthy "I god I'm embarrassed to be associated with this hobby" Video Game Awards are coming up, on the 10th of December to be exact.
On one hand, may god have mercy on us all. On the other, new games will be shown, so yay for that. Usually the announcements are just CGI trailers and other such crap, as this is a show made to appeal to the dudebro mass market, but hey, they're better than nothing.
This year the following is confirmed for an appearance of some sort;
- Metal Gear Rising re-reveal
- Alan Wake XBLA
- BioWare's new IP, from their new studio
For reference, last year the following were shown/announced for the first time;
Batman: Arkham City
Skyrim
Uncharted 3
Mass Effect 3
Resistance 3
SSX
Forza 4
Prototype 2
inSANE
Kratos In Mortal Kombat _________________

Is Angry Joe going to make a fool of himself again? I'd pay to see that. _________________

Cunt of a show (can't think of many award shows for anything that aren't cunts, though), but I'll allow myself some giddy school girl giggles for MGS and new Bioware stuff.

BioWare's 'new IP' is likely Command & Conquer: Generals 2 by their sub studio Victory Games, and seems to be directed by one JVC, with word stating PC exclusive. Here's a couple of snaps.

If that happens to be true, F**k yeah. C&C generals was awesome fun and pretty damn good for a spin-off. _________________

Geoff Keighley seems to be implying that this isn't the big Sony exclusive. I still think this will reveal around that same time, but there might be something else. _________________

Word is that Zach Levi is hosting this year, so there's potential for it to not be a complete cringefest. _________________ Twitter | XBL: Tamaaya | PSN: stormo | GameCentre/Steam: StorminNorman

Pretty sure Metal Gear Rising is multi-plat. Unless the 'truth' referred to is that they have dropped the Xbox version.

As per Epic Games will be revealing their next big franchise/game there. And via here, the known list of stuff being shown is;
1.) Metal Gears Solid: Rising
2.) BioShock Infinite
3.) Alan Wake XBLA
4.) Transformers: Fall Of Cybertron
5.) "BioWare's New Franchise" (Best Guess: C&C: Generals 2)
6.) "PS3 Exclusive You Won't Believe" - "Would you believe there really are secrets still left in the game industry?": http://www.gametrailers.com/video/vg...ke-vgas/724577 (Best Guess: Until Dawn - A PlayStation Move Zombie Game)
7.) Diablo 3 opening cinematic
8.) Rainbow 6: Patriots
9.) New franchise from Epic
There's supposedly thirteen reveals, so there's that. _________________

If Epic Games announce a reboot of UT I'm going to cry with joy.

I could be making things up, but I'm pretty sure Epic has spoken of interest in shifting multiplayer centric games to FTP models. I wouldn't be surprised if a new UT, when it comes, was FTP. _________________

That would be pretty excellent considering we already have Quake Live and Tribes Ascend. UT would complete the skill based trifecta.
Perhaps the announcement is based around the Samaritan tech demo they showed off. The art assets they had in there seemed very polished so definitely could be in the works. And hell prior to the announcement of Gears of War they had UE3 tech demos going off with monster designs such as the Brumak that were in Gears. _________________

Speaking of skill based shooters, I can't wait for Gears of Four _________________

I think there done with Gears. I think it's going to be a game based off the tech demo footage they released a while a go so expect a dark street and rain. I'm happy about Generals 2 as that is my 2nd favorite C&C game behind Red Alert 2 but Bioware has just become a synonym with EA at this point. It might have a dialogue system but it won't be a Bioware game.

Lawl. Loving the internet exploding with bawwing crybaby Metal Gear fans who cant get over a non-serious game taking itself...not seriously, versus the laughable cheesey and over serious trainwreck that was Metal Gear 4. Hideo is probably proud as hell as a competent developer is now actually making the game, rather than it being stuck in development hell forever at KojiPro. _________________

Lawl @yourself.
Calling others crybabies for saying they don't like a game? It doesn't matter what franchise the game is from, the trailer looks terrible.
It might as well be a Metal Gear version of Fruit Ninja and be released on iPad. _________________ My YouTube game videos!
