yeah that was pretty funny.I fucking lol'd at the two people who applauded when Gone Home received the award.
it was probably that one person at polygon or whatever who actually played it and gave it a perfect score, and a relative.
or two relatives.

And GOT is announced.
Telltale is working on 4 games at the moment.
Well, it makes sense considering their size.

I like how Joel McHale is horribly bored and acting like a troll, although a very bad one.
You can see the regret of hiring him in Geoff's eyes.

I assume the criteria was "game that is most likely to make you want to shoot yourself"?

Against my better judgement, I watched this shit:
Quantum something will be a bog standard third person, coverbased, popamole shooter with a gimmick.
Double Fine blown more money hiring Frodo.
Nitendo is gonna release, surprise, surprise: Donkey Kong #446564 this time with a monkey with a beard.
The Division had a teaser showing... snow, a car being shot and smoke... this time you can make bullet holes in cars, truly an innovative invention. Showing a gameplay video showing a bog standard third person shooter wouldn'd impress no one.
Dying light, Dead Island 2.0 but I have the following curiosity: If you were attacked by a zombie, what would be easier? Killing him with a sledgehammer or just hitting a button on a quick time event to do a very weak punch in his face while he is bitining you?No, there is no problem be bitten over and over again, you just need to press a button to quite gently make the zombie go away and kill him with you gentle ways.
Tell Tale is gonna make two more low budget movies with kinda mediocre writing, one is for milking retarded Borderlands fans and the another is to milk retarded GoT fans.I gonna get everything I wanted, a low poligon, with stiff facial animation and mediocre writing movie about GoT where I could just read the books and even the show that are going to be better anyway.
The Witcher 3 just released another teaser of a teaser of a teaser.
Titanfall look like CoD but with robots and a jumping in walls gimmick. Nothing better than die over and over again for Roxxx4532og but this he was in a robot.
I won't even mention the rest of the shit::kwanzania:
The only one that kinda made me interested was the one with procedural generated planets where you could travel with your space ship and visit planets with different fauna and flora, procedually generated. Swim in the oceans, walk anywhere on land, take a space ship, travel and combat in space then explore other planets. But the shit will be empty, repetitive and generic looking anyway as the guys behind it have the too much ambition not enough money syndrome.

These type of events never have anything worthwhile, I don't know why people still watch them.

Yeah this sounded pretty good, but will at best end up in Steam Early Access limbo and never be a complete game.

Didn't watch it like any sensible person, instead, I just went for a quick recap.

Wait until the bored reviewers gave it a 6/10, claiming "it's a big map with nothing to do but sight seeing!"
Well I'm probably the Codex's biggest confirmed explorefag.

If anyone is interested in who actually nominated and voted for these "games", here you go:
The problem I have with these games is that more often than not there is shit all to actually "explore" since nobody actually put any effort behind buildings an interesting setting/levels and encounters, else they couldn't be "procedural". It's usually a variation of the same room/tiles/pieces of decoration or events that get pasted over and over and which get boring fast. There is a certain amount of procedurality that can make a game better imo (see for instance Diablo 2) or generally allowing a bit of freedom within constraints but combining it with a lot of very specific encounters and hand-crafted content which drive the game further, but a lot of the games that praise themselves on "procedural design" look like utter shit to me since they seem so generic:

Add crafting and it gets a 10/10.
