Extra killer much less filler

Welcome again! It’s one other Tuesday, which suggests tonight there might be a brand new episode of the Spot Dodge Podcast completely on Destructoid. Matters: Geoff Keighley’s Sport Awards occasion is correct across the nook. So I assumed it’d be enjoyable for everybody to convey their predictions for the present to the desk. Together with that, we dive into this week’s Nintendo information.

Geoff Keighley confirmed that The Sport Awards might be considerably shorter this 12 months as a result of suggestions from earlier years. Whereas I’ve all the time loved watching The Sport Awards, it’s no secret that the present was excruciatingly padded in size to filter in dozens of ads. It’s nice to see the TGAs could also be pivoting away from that and providing a extra streamlined showcase. TGA by no means fails to provide us some superior bulletins, it simply sucks you normally must trudge by way of three hours of nonsense to see them.

Lastly, I’m nonetheless apprehensive that the precise “awards” will proceed to be an afterthought throughout the presentation. Which is a bummer, contemplating that is the “Sport Awards”. I really like watching nervous devs give awards speeches for the sport they labored tirelessly on for years. It’s cringey, lovable, and simply among the best elements of Geoff Keighley’s Sport Awards.

Our pretty forged from across the internet: Brett Medlock (me) and Mary Stowe from Destructoid, John Friscia from The Escapist, Greg Bargas from PC Invasion, and Brett Larsen, our additional particular visitor. Behind the scenes, Gamurs’ Eric Weichhart is live-editing this week’s present. Tell us within the feedback!
