They might be doing this because there's a few other people, much smaller group, that are opening their own small game awards and asking their followers to help with it. Supposedly 100% gamer choice but who knows. Generally don't even watch this haha
So they want to claim the name THE GAME AWARDS. Ah... well... I wonder if they succeed if people point out to the office that "game awards" is a very set of common words.
Those puppies are just adorable. Makes me miss back when we had dogs. These people just want power and control over what is considered to be good games. They don't care if there is actually any quality there, just whether or not they can declare games to be good to push their agenda.
All of the big corporate names on the jury make the game awards a complete write off immediately. Just make it IP locked single vote from the people and represent what gamers actually think. My favorite original game this year was Animal Well personally but the fact that some trash is on there like Veilguard is absurd.
Look at those cutieees🥰 agh i want to kiss and hug them all ❤they are adorable! 😍 As for the clownshow that is the GOTY show... they can call themselves whatever but we all know that they are not in fact the "game awards" since we already know games like DATV will definitely be candidates for goty but not black myth wukong... 😒 they only support and push what games they think are good without taking our opinions, or the game's commercial success, into account. The goty that fans vote on is a different title/category which is ridiculous imo. Goty awards should be decided by the people who actually sat down and played the game. Not some gaming journalists with conflicts of interest echo chamber decides is the best game...😮💨 My prediction is datv wins goty this year while they ingore black myth's success. And the worst thing? The ones trying to convince us DATV was a big hit, will be so smug about it thinking this was another "win" 😂
The cow spotted runt puppy is Adorable ❤ 😍. I’m glad they’re healthy. Trademarking “The Game Awards” I think is silly. This is the same awards that was mostly advertisements last year. They have a bit to go, as the most professional they have been was hiring Al Pacino to present the first award in ‘22 with the infamous statement of not playing video games but has watched his kids play. The reason other award are given weight is due to the judges, 300+ judges for the Golden Globes and 10k for the Academy Awards are people involved in the industry. If it gains backing from developers getting together to cast their vote then maybe I would find it more interesting.
For anyone watching, it's specifically trademarks that protect brand names and iconography, not patents or copyrights. You can't patent a name, you can't copyright a name, at least not outside of the context of its work. If you want to block others from making a Halo series video game without your permission or making an unrelated video game called Halo, you need to use your trademark rights for that name. You can register the trademark in the USPTO to make it easier for you to assert the brand rights. She likely confused it for patents because the USPTO has the word patent before the word trademark in its name. I'm not a lawyer, so it might not be fully correct.
I've never watch the game awards. Not going start now. My Choice for GOTY is the one I bought, play, and enjoyed .If happens to be the same as their choice, yay. If not, oh well. cute puppies btw !!!🥰🥰
It's been a while since I paid much attention to awards in any hobby of mine, from Oscars to Hugos to Ennies to...whatever. I'll scan reviews - with a side dish of salt even then - before buying anything. Awards are just window dressing as far as I'm concerned.
The Game Awards™ isn't that the show that's like the Super Bowl, just without the Football ? As in all break no play unless you count circle jerking? Where we get to see the latest trailers for all the hottest new AAA live service slop that nobody has ever heard of and less people care for? 😂
Its kinda a product of the times, I think the fact that gamers are a global wide community has them reeling for control. Though, when they are so inclined to thumb on the scale approach folks will just leave. Happy about the new dogs🎉
Is there a place where I can vote against? Also when they say "vote" do they mean for the winners of each category or for the roasters which is worse from my standpoint.
What are those pups? I'm remembering going to see our dogs when they were pups, last few dogs have been Staffordshire Bull Terriers Side Scrollers has a game awards so I'm wondering if this is a response to that
Sounds like an attempt to push for legitimacy to back the 'modern audience' slop, so the voice of the actual gaming public can be discounted if its not in line with the 'official' game awards opinion. Likely trying to nip alternative award shows in the bud, knowing they'll spring up from how shite game awards is going to be.
Yeah, however going the other way if the popular vote won it would go to Black Myth Wukong. For those who enjoyed Wukong, good for you, but outside of the graphics that game is mid. At best a 7/10, but personally I have it more around 6/10. Graphically the game looks great. Combat however lacks depth and is clunky AF. The story isn't super engaging either. The game also gets worse in the second half. The only reason people overrate Black Myth Wukong and call it the "real" GoTY is because they are the "anti-woke" brigade. I am sorry, but the "anti-woke" crowd is just as annoying and toxic as the woke crowd. While the woke crowd calls mediocre games like Dragon Age: The Veilguard as perfect due to identity politics, the anti-woke crowd calls the mediocre game Black Myth Wukong perfect because it doesn't have leftist politics in it. I am sorry, but simply not being woke doesn't make a game good, just like adding woke elements to your game also doesn't make it good.
I don't really think it would qualify as a 6 or even 7 out of 10. It's easily an 8, the story is great just not westernized whatsoever or dumbed down. The game is solid and not because it doesn't appeal to neo-marxist stuff but because it's authentically it's own thing. The only clunky bits really are two or three bosses and that's mainly camera issues.
It's a dry year. The major gaming industry crash is looming. Kinda makes sense BMW could take a GOTY even though it is mediocre compared to a decade of games.
Your fur baby has babies. I believe that makes you a puppy granny.
No geof***off, they DO NOT BELONG TO YOU! THE PEOPLE'S CHOICES ARE EXACTLY THAT, THE PEOPLE'S!!! Also AWWWWWWW puppies🥹💖💖💖

You talking about the sidescrollers game awards.
Awww, puppers!
Well soon enough their mother will be busy trying to keep track of where all her puppers are.
So they want to claim the name THE GAME AWARDS.
Ah... well...
I wonder if they succeed if people point out to the office that "game awards" is a very set of common words.
Our papillon is from a litter of 4 females. She was the runt.
Those puppies are just adorable. Makes me miss back when we had dogs.

dustborn will be the game of the year gamers totally love games like this
Puppy bless.

They should just say, 'Gamers don't know what they like. We will tell them what they like.' At least then they are being honest. Also cute doggos.

Does anyone actually pay attention to the game awards anymore? I don’t think I ever watched one of their events. Or any movie awards for that matter.
I'm only there for trailers and I don't even watch it live.
I've never watch the game awards. Not going start now. My Choice for GOTY is the one I bought, play, and enjoyed .If happens to be the same as their choice, yay. If not, oh well. cute puppies btw !!!🥰🥰
I had never heard of this award show. I am however familiar with "The Real Game Awards" from Stuttering Craig of SideScrollers.
I would definitely watch a video of you reacting to the game awards.
That's one cute eldritch monstrosity.
They didn't hear this from me, but I think they need to Copyright the name. They aren't inventing anything.

Just another award show not decided by the people, but committee. I wouldn't waste your time or patience.

Hah. They'll *never* have my support. I hope the majority of the community feels the same.
Cute puppy ❤❤❤❤
Its kinda a product of the times, I think the fact that gamers are a global wide community has them reeling for control.

Happy about the new dogs🎉
I'm slowly getting sick and tired hearing the word patients
i hope dustborn wins just to show how much of a clown show this event actually is so people start tuning out
Puppies! Why don't they also have tentacles?
Because they're puppies, not squid babies, silly!
Regular puppies. Not squid monster puppies. Gotcha 👍
Is there a place where I can vote against? Also when they say "vote" do they mean for the winners of each category or for the roasters which is worse from my standpoint.
jeff kiwi really makin hard to like him eh...
the puppys are cute
What are those pups? I'm remembering going to see our dogs when they were pups, last few dogs have been Staffordshire Bull Terriers
Side Scrollers has a game awards so I'm wondering if this is a response to that
They're biewer terriers
Do not help anyone make any patents...most patents nowadays are bs...this one especially
I feel like no one should watch this show, they are a joke letting remakes and dlc be goty

What breed are the puppies?
Biewer Terriers
