Now While i am excited for Batman AA2

i feel like the developer’s are just rushing out a sequal to get sale’s and i don’t like that

it’s been 4 month’s since the release of the first game. And they’ve already announced a sequal it usually take’s a year for a normal dev to announce a sequal and then another year to release it..

yes i know halo reach had a trailer as well (wasn’t that announced in late 2008 along with odst)

i’m unhappy that borderland’s didn’t win anything unlike that other fps that is just a 4 hour campaign (plus the ending screamed sequal just like any other activision game) and multiplayer though the Spec Op’s (dlc for spec op’s pwease) is bloody great…

also it look’s like rock band is going down the road of guitar hero (s*itty sequals) now only if they made a gun’s and rose’s rock band i’d dive on that like a fly dive’s on s*it… lol

i’m glad to see AC2 won something though it should of been goty

also deac the dlc for ac2 is gonna be cheap $4.99 and $3.99 (i don’t know what that is in £ but in microsoft points it should be 560 and 400 i think)

I’m actually really excited for Reach, and SW:TFU2 looks pretty tight as well.

I really did not see anything that stood out for me regarding Medal of Honor or Spec Ops: The Lines.

except for what seems like the standard “add a women to the unit” trend in games lately…

I am pretty sure the “Reach” CGI was 100% in game engine, not full CGI.

…”In other news, Mikewarrior’s favorite game, Borderlands, received nothing.”

Just had to rub that in, huh? I guess that proves the VGAs are full of tools!

From everything I’ve read about Uncharted 2, it deserves GotY. Fully agree with that pick. This is actually the first time I’ve sat down and watched the entire award show. I honestly enjoyed it.

Spike’s VGA’s are more focused on celebrities who don’t have a clue about video games to get viewers to tune in. Somebody slides them some cash and some expensive gift bags and they pretend to like video games. I don’t own a PS3, but Uncharted looks liks a good game. I would’ve chosen Batman: Arkam Asylum.

Batman AA 2 FTW!! The trailer looked pretty awesome, other than that, I have to agree. The VGAs are pretty sad.

yeah it is an embarrassment to the gaming community in its current form imo…

Spike needs to get rid of this. It’s just an embarrassment to gaming.

As for the trailers, some of them were good. I’m looking forward to Force Unleashed 2 and Arkham Asylum 2. Both Spec Ops and Medal of Honor looked interesting.

I’m not sure what to make of the Halo Reach trailer. Hopefully these Spartans don’t act like the guys from Gears and Army of Two because that’s kind of the vibe I was getting.
