literally who

jobber awards ceremonies shouldn't count

It's not that jobber tbh, it's a pretty significant festival that celebrates gaming, film and music. and been going since 1987. hmm

The only IGN/ex-IGN person that mattered

GOTY awards are just gonna keep increasing as there are more websites and magazines that cover gaming keep on increasing.

Amount of awards don't count, imo the Spike VGA is the Balon D Or and the others are just random website awards like Goal.com 50.

That's a myth, there was more awards handed out in 2013 (year of TLOU and GTA) than there were this year.

Besides the real MVP is GDC as voted on by other developers and Spike VGA's is no more prestigious than any of the other award ceremony tbh as at the end of the day it's an award show voted on by the same media who you compare to Goal.com 50 lol.

I know this is pretty irrelevant, but I was always a fan of her name. Chobot.. or something along those lines.

Edit: Yep, Jessica Chobot. She was pretty cute when she was younger.

I never said anything about credibility. We all know how much of a joke Balon D Or is but that is the only relevant award.

Jessica Chobot aka PSP licker. rofl

Don't know why Bioware included her in the Mass Effect 3. her character certainly didn't add anything to the story and she isn't exactly an eye candy either, poor choice Bioware.

by Twoism Mon Mar 21, 2016 2:38 am

I think it's Mass Effect 2, they did it to please the media but butchered her design hard with that butter face, got a lots of unneccessary flak for it both her and Bioware. I like her on Nerdist, more relaxed and doesn't seem to age which is a good thing.

It's not though that's the point, there are "more" credible awards than that one tbh, only reason people pay attention to it is because it comes with a load of game announcements.

No i'm pretty sure she was in the third game. her place in the Normandy was engineering floor, room on the right hand side which was previously occupied by that veteran mercenary Zaeed Massani.

"We've got a whole lot of new technology that's going in that you'll start to see in Batman, and Telltale games going forward [...] We have a bunch of new engineers that have been working on rendering technology - non-photorealistic rendering technology [...] but it's really cool, very much upgraded from the kinds of things that you've seen from Telltale in the past [...] It's still a Telltale game, so it'll be evolved from what you've seen before, but I think a more significant step than you've seen from any of our products in the past."

telltale games must be some of the most overrated games of all time tbh

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon Mar 21, 2016 12:43 pm

Mainly posted it because they are known for crap visuals in their games hmm

by Kaladin Mon Mar 21, 2016 12:50 pm

They're more like interactive storytelling than games imo

by RealGunner Mon Mar 21, 2016 1:50 pm

Telltale games are shit

by M99 Mon Mar 21, 2016 1:59 pm

The Wolf Among Us was awesome. GTFO.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon Mar 21, 2016 2:00 pm

RG will buy it anyway because it's Batman. (:

So will i Sad

by RealGunner Mon Mar 21, 2016 2:10 pm

i will see if it actually is a game for 2016 standards and not an interactive crap which i can watch on youtube and not feel left out.

Remember TWD season 1 and it took like 30 minutes to make characters move about as they were programmed using raspberry pi

Just wondering if i can smash DS1 in a week or not.

I liked The Wolf Among Us, too. I'm a bit surprised it's barely been talked about on here.

Telltale has become Tecmo Koei of Mosu game, go around fishing for established franchise and pull out Telltale pseudo visual novel mechanic. I like Borderlands, Wolf and WD season 1 but season 2, Michone, GOT, Minecraft were all meh. Their games sell like cup cake so I expect tons of franchise will collaborate with them, I dread the day of Telltale - tales of Scooby Doo.
