Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD is a downloadable game for the first half of 2012. Apparently, it's based on the first two games.

"When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it."

This is like a mini E3 now. Watching for PS3 exclusive "Last Of Us" (the unbelievable exclusive reveal), they're hyping this a lot.

Yeah, that's about the only new game announcement I'm wanting to see. Maybe BioShock Infinite will be good. Rising was a bust, so it's down to those two!

--
"When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it."

yeah, VGAs are #2 behind e3 for reveals now. it's the only event that's really televised. that's a new audience you wouldn't be able to reach with your normal press conference.

Potentially the greatest news of the show, right here.

What is this, some kind of joke?!
Go, then. There are other worlds than these.

I'll probably be dissapointed if anything other than Skyrim wins.

Well uh,

They sure upped the production value.

That wasn't the new Sony exclusive they were making a big deal about, was it?

Hell yeah, The Last of Us is made by Naughty Dog.

I believe it was. Naughty Dog is cool and all, but it looks like another zombie-ish game. Meh.

Yes it was.

New Naughty Dog game is probably why. That's good, but I'm tired of zombies.

--
You have no time to ponder such questions, as Link has just grabbed a Smash Ball.

Well, damn. I was hoping for something that had to do with that Michael commercial, since I remembered some people were connecting the two.

But yeah, zombies at this point pretty much mean nothing can make me give a **** about this game, regardless of developer.

The Last of Us was such a letdown. it looks like the Dead Island trailer crossed with Uncharted, which is cool but they hyped this through the moon and didn't show anything more than they did in the teaser really. the words "Naughty Dog" said more than the trailer did.

ah well, should be good since it's Naughty Dog

--
xyzzy

Also the girl in the trailer looked liked she was modeled after Ellen Page.

Psh some production values for these awards, they don't even have envelopes to announce the award winners! No excuse for their anticipation pause via opening up a letter, instead they just pause their sentence for no reason!


yes I'm making this a big deal you can't stop me

**** yeah Mass Effect 3!!

You mean "Shepard running past all the enemies to trigger the cool cutscenes?"

I mean yeah it looked great but still <_<

Basically my reaction.

If that really was Nolan North in The Last of Us, I have even less interest. I like the guy but Naughty Dog using him again is kind of annoying.

I'm just generally impressed at how smooth everything looks. ME2 seems so clunky and choppy in comparison.

--

It's not like 50% of games nowadays don't have North in them anyways.

Giant Bomb has an award devoted to him every year for a reason.
