I apologize in advance for all the crappy jokes I make.

I hope they don't reveal their game at that horrible show.

We will see.

Nonsense.

It will be a nice Juxtaposition don't you think? After showing off the "best" games of the year, they blow it all away with a glimpse of the future that is to come...

Yeah, it's a horrible show... but it is a good place to reveal a game.

I don't see your "Juxtaposition". A horrible show is a horrible show. Spike can cram all the -blam!- they want on the VGAs and it still won't matter. They don't celebrate the hard work of developers; all they do is cram a crap-load of teasers and celebrity cameos. The VGAs aren't an industry event, it's an opportunity to advertise and get ratings.

  • 12.03.2012 9:43 PM PDT

They have permission to pre-announce certain exclusives like those three. But there will be a ton more.

I don't expect Bungie to release anything until 2013, which is next month so we won't be in the dark for too long.

I don't see your "Juxtaposition".
"This is the Present in gaming."
"This is the Future in gaming."

Don't see how I can make it any more clear.

Anyways, if Destiny being revealed at the VGAs is what's required to get it's name out there, then that's what should happen. I don't give a damn about the VGAs, I'd just like to see the universe come to life at this point. The premise is solid, the Concept Art looks promising, I just need to see it moving now...

The world premieres for the show have been 'revealed' supposedly. Among them is The Last of Us, the new Gears of War, and the South Park game.

My question: Where's Destiny!? : (

Is there a chance they could sneak in undetected?
From my past experience, "World Premiere" by VGA standards typically means it is either A) gameplay footage for a game that hasn't had gameplay footage released yet (as would be the case for GOW: Judgment and South Park) or B) gameplay footage of a new section for a game that has already had some footage shown. (As the case may be for The Last of Us.)

Actual new reveals at the VGA's are kept quiet, at least from what I remember. I've only watched the last 2 years.


Who is to say there won't be any gameplay/cinematics?
I don't mean to say there won't be. I'm just pointing at that the real "world premieres" are kept secret. What they announce as "world premieres" before the show is usually just new footage of announced games.

...Welcome to television?

Really though, it hasn't been that bad. At least the past 2 years have been decent, with a few moments excepted(That scene last year when they invited the guy who hated the VGA's to sit next to the producer comes to mind). But we have had some cool stuff come out of it. It give us our first look at The Last of Us last year, and Skyrim the year before. It's not all bad.

Per Audacia Ad Astra!

On one hand i'm excited to see something from Bungie at VGA 2K12(even if i think this show is terrible) but on the other hand, i would like them to keep their project secret for E3 2013...

  • 12.04.2012 1:15 AM PDT

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

This wouldn't be Bungie's first rodeo if they decided to launch headfirst with the VGAs rather than E3 2013. Assuming that Bungie intends to follow their launch schedule laid out by their contract, announcing Destiny during the VGAs would make a lot of sense rather than E3; there's a smaller advertising window with an E3 announcement and a Fall 2013 launch.

So, let's expect to see Bungie at VGAs, but let's not get too butthurt if they're not.

I have always thought bungie to be a little antisocial when it came to events like this.

I'm trying to become an '04, but it's not working too well."

How can they say it's a reveal if those games have been revealed already?

Okay, but they can still follow the COD advertising model (you'll tell me everyone know COD is annual). But i would like to see them take a risk and announce a game the same year of it's release.

My question: Where's Destiny!? : (

They lost me and all my hope of a good game with this comment by
Jason Jones - "Destiny is designed for your inner seven year old. We want to make it feel like a mythic adventure."

No matter how good the concept art looks I honestly could now care less.

I do hope however they prove my thoughts wrong and win me over. But it will be very hard with after a comment like the one above.

Well, I'm sorry for you that you can't be excited about the game. Are you one of this kind of people who say things like: "Mario, Zelda and Rayman and stuff are so ghey. They're just for little kidds. I only play real games for real men like Gears of War or Call of Duty... man."

Bobcast is paid in MILF blind dates.

It would be an interesting choice to reveal at the VGA's. On one hand they would get a lot of exposure/viewers watching, but on the other hand they would have to compete with other announcements.

Their name alone should be a big enough edge.

If a company like Bungie, Valve, etc announces something, people take notice.

Look at all the news sites that exploded with information about the leak. People are following Bungie very closely and everything they do makes gamer news.

He's the host of GameTrailers TV on Spike, and according to Wikipedia he also is executive producer of the VGA's.
