VGAs 09
Sorry if this is in the wrong place wasn't sure if it should be here or not since it does deal with TV at the same time it also deals with gaming.
In the 200th issue of Game Informer one of the staff writes about an article on the past and future VG award shows. They talked about what mainly made them poor to watch for hardcore gamers or anyone period. (The celebrity guests who didn't know a thing about games, the lame jokes, and lack of appearances by game developers.)
They did give some props to last year's show which I agree was the best although it was still pretty bad overall. They talked to the guy in charge of the VGAs and he informed GI that they were aiming for it to stay more industry faithful. Last year they had some major trailer releases and that is all I can give it. I still can't excuse them for having Jack Black dance around in a diaper or for those mediocre celebrity performances.
This year it's going to be late sometime in mid Dec. I'm hoping that they won't have Jack Black doing anything but making quotes from Brutal Legend. They also need a new writer for the jokes because all of them came across as weak except for the opening skit with Jack Black last year having a threesome with the PS3 and 360 and having the Wii show up as his wife and shoot him with a gun.
In my opinion going for the music side. I would like to see some remix or orchestrated music of classic video game themes like The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros. and Final Fantasy.
Anybody else have any opinions, expectations?
