I mean It deserved it. It wasn’t as cringe as the earlier ones and there were great reveals and awards. The funny moments were also legendary. (The oscars guy and the baby from death stranding) Great show
Fuck the Oscars indeed!
Good, more audience to the Switch. XD
The most important aspect of the Game Awards are not the awards themselves, but the announcements made by developers. That’s what draws people into watching it live. The good thing is that I think Geoff understands this and understands that he needs these gaming companies to make some important announcements exclusive to the game awards. The bigger the announcements, the higher the ratings will go.
