Oh you guys have to watch the 2013 spike vgx awards. Geoff was trying so hard to make that show work and joel was trying so hard to make it not. I fully understand why the game awards became a thing after the trainwreck that those were.
I hope you guys keep going back. I watched the 2004 one recently and it's so unhinged. It's actually hard to find a segment that isn't wildly offensive by today's standards, but also feels like the origin of what was to come since Kojima got a lifetime achievement award (crazy that was 20 years ago!)
Flower slander will not be tolerated. Excellent game (and ost) and actual good use of Sixaxis controls. Not sure how it works on PC when not using motion controls, but would make sure to have a controller that supports gyro for it.
If anyone wants "Hard Mode" for Flower, see the PS Vita version with the motion sensing enabled - where because you have to literally turn the screen to move you can't actually see where you're going half the time. It's still a favourite of mine, but really was made to be played a certain way.
Literally listened to Songs in the Key of Life in full just before this was posted. Seconding Janet’s recommendation. It’s the greatest album of all time, from the GOAT musician.
It's the worst one for me. Lost Legacy felt like Uncharted, whereas Uncharted 4 felt like it was infected by The Last of Us somehow. The story got heavier, the sense of adventure was missing for most of it, and the pacing was terrible. Naughty Dog went from making fun action pastiches to trying for HBO prestige drama with every title. It's amazing Lost Legacy came together was well as it did considering how bloated and ponderous U4 was.
Back when these presentations had more personality and weren't sterile environments. Blame a lot of gamers for being the thought police, hope you like your safe spaces.

Leo to Olivia Wilde "Come sit on something else" was WILD to hear 😂😂
-1000 social credit score
I also feel the same fear as Janet Garcia.
Take advantage of the DEI wave and ride it🌊🌊
The difference between this one and the 2007 show is staggering. This basically felt like the current day game awards lol
Dave the Diver BAFTA speech was the "we beat Zelda"
Thank you!
I'm so glad y'all have been rewatching these! Brutal in the best (?) possible ways lol

I appreciated the teleprompter joke even if no one else did 1:00:43
This series of videos are so much fun.
Who knew society progressed so much in 2 years!
Yeah too bad it’s going backwards in the next 4 years.
@38:20: Leo speaking from his fully aroused heart, lol!
😂😭💀
ben calling out "no teleprompter" for stevie wonder killed me. Stevie is a consumate professional. he doesnt need a teleprompter
The thumbnail did not disappoint holy heck😂
Sounds like Claudia Black as the announcer, that's kind of cool. Right after Dragon Age Origins.

Ben laughed a littlee too hard at that opening joke about Janet lol

Really glad Best Performance By A Human Male made the thumbnail
Hell yeah, Janet! 21st Century Breakdown rules!
Yes, my vote ❤
the flower hate will not be tolerated!!!
1:11:34 its funny watching this having just replayed through uncharted 4 in 5 days. It flew by. That game is amazing.
I liked 21 Guns at the time, but never listened to 21st Century Breakdown in full
Love the new layout!
Zach Braff done said “Thanks, mom.”
Oh man I can almost taste mountain dew and Doritos 00s edition...
Those 3D Doritos were awesome lol.
RIP, RE5 not even mentioned. Even Demon's Souls was nominated, which is wild!
This makes me want to listen old Nick Mullen riffs
@16:52: it on phone...😂
@32:32: The silent response to Ben's seasoned conversation, lol! 😂 (wtf is Spike seasoning exactly??)🤷
Janet really does add to this whole experience 😭 if it was just jacob and ben it'd be hella awkward lol (no offense)
wow this was a lot less terrible
During the True Crime section was Jacob by chance talking about the new minimme vid on Streets of LA? Rad, if so.
Ah yes I love videos that takes me 3 days to finish.
Uncharted 4 > every other Uncharted game. Lost Legacy is very fun, too.
It's the worst one for me. Lost Legacy felt like Uncharted, whereas Uncharted 4 felt like it was infected by The Last of Us somehow.

Love Uncharted 4 but Uncharted 2 is the best imo.
Crackdown 2 is better than the first one. Fight me.
Played Uncharted 2 recently, surprised that most of that game is just shooting henchmen in third person.

These are cringe and awful
