Pile of shite. Gaming is dead. I shall celebrate by pumping another 200 hours into the WoW expansion and pretending that it's still 2004.
 
Didn't even watch it, was busy playing the monkey game.

And by the looks of the poll results, I'd say I did the right thing. Let's hope TGS doesn't disappoint.
 
so far it is a D, would be lower if it didnt have the release date for the Indiana jones game.
i would have been pissed if i paid to go see ONL.
 
I gave it a B because it was nicely paced for the most part and I got to see more of games I wanna play.

I went into it with no expectations so I guess that helped. But still.. pretty good I thought!
 
Staying positive here I'll give it a C, youtube'ing things works I think a lot of people watch things that way instead of watching the event.
 
The only interesting announcements at this video game event was a series of game themed shorts that will be on Amazon prime in December.

The only interesting announcement at this video game event wasn't even a videogame.

So yeah D tier
 
Think I'll begin to only watch events by platform holders going forward. Nintendo Direct's, PS Showcases etc.. and the occasional State of Play.
 
I missed all of the announcements, lol. That's the first time for me to not know what happened. So i was either not interested, or there's nothing interesting I should know about.

Anything truly new, or just new trailers of the same games revealed earlier?
 
How do you rate the snacks
N for Nonexistent. I came late and barely found a seat behind this huge fat dude after bars were closed. Still loved it, but not because of what was shown. Highlights - angriest ever turkish bouncer on crack yelling at the crowd in the queue IF YOU HAVE A FUCKING BAG, GO LEFT FOR CHECK, IF NO FUCKING BAG MOVE RIGHT GET LOST I kid you not, plenty of people were recording so I'm sure he'll be a star on Twitter soon
 
I gave it a fairly generous D.
The showcase wasn't good, it was two hours long and anything I thought looked good I already knew about and was already planning on buying/purchased.

Highlights:
SF6 Terry trailer
Fatal fury release date
Monster hunter wilds trailer
Reanimal
Kingdom come deliverance 2
Starfield update/dlc trailer
Floatopia (this was new, my other half will adore this)
 
Isn't Gamescom still happening right now? It looks like it happens between the 21st and the 25th of August. How do you rate something that has only just begun?

Are you talking strictly about the opening night ceremony?
 
More like Lamescom, am I right?

But seriously, it wasn't great. The Indy release date was nice to know because I'm looking forward to it. Other than that, it was tepid asswater.
