+Daniel Plainview There's a good reason I like him the most as a person and actor honestly. He's not stupid. Seems like a really legit person also, hence why I like him. :)
Tattle Boad Judging by the quality of your post/argument, you're probably closer to ten years old than I am, but would you rather the 2013 VGX be a soulless, completely vapid experience or would you rather it be at the very least entertaining? The 2013 VGX weren't even televised, but nice try there. Acting like an aloof, self-deprecating dickhead is pretty much McHale's schtick, so it's the award show's fault for not realizing what they were getting themselves into (like when Stephen Colbert was invited to the White House Correspondent's Dinner). The 2013 VGX (and most of the Spike VGA's up until that point) was marred by low production value and utter lack of enthusiasm for the most part - at least McHale brought that to the show. I would rather watch an entertaining mess than a vapid one.
+Tattle Boad The whole thing wasn't even to represent gamers in the first place. It was an insult to the gaming industry. Joel exposed it for what it was- a scam, a heartless display of corperate greed
Am I the only one who thought Joel was actually slightly entertaining? I loved seeing Geoff Keighley get the same douchebaggerry that he dished/dishes out to other people, only with added truth.
+Nigel Thornberry He actually is the best part of that VGX, but the problem was he did that throughout the show and some segments just had too much Joel in it, the best parts were basically Joel ripping on Geoff (who deserved every bit of it)
Did Joel do this whole thing as revenge for how Geoff treated Joe at the 2010 awards show? He shut him down in exactly the same way Geoff shut down Joe.
Ye I'd say so too. I remember an ad for a new FIFA game that had Lil' Wayne and Drake in it saying they loved the series yet they looked like they had no idea how to play the game.
For real. You need people that represent the community and not a puppet of a corperation that says they are for the community. Gaming should have the craziest award shows of them all but they don't. Why? CUZ FUCK YOU GIVE ME MONEY!!!
Joel McHale was trying to bring down the injustice of the VGX. He was trying to show the audience the difference of what the VGX was made to be (a giant advertisement to the most expensive developers), and what the VGX should be (recognition for great games).
Really? Giving out the award to Naughty Dog he just seemed to be his usual self and not give a shit about anything. Not saying its a bad thing, hes the best thing in whatever he is invovled in.
How about skip rap altogether. How about since it's , you know "games", how about we bring the people who make the soundtracks. No, not the douche bag who is licensed to be in a fucking radio station of a game. I am talking about the guy who slaved with an orchestra for months to bring the skyrim sound track, that guy who borderline writes a Mozart worthy symphony theme every fucking assassin's creed, and that guy that made the fucking soundtrack to Deus Ex Human Revolution. The soundtrack gets no recognition in games.
God I remember how terrible this VGX was. It couldn't of been more of a disaster. A fight breaking out between the hosts would of improved it. All I know is that I'm not going to watch this years VGA/X or whatever the fuck they call it now.
***** Dude, last year the whole premise around last years show was that they took peoples advice and it was the worst one yet! Do I have to remind you about the "I love potatoes!" guy, the HORRENDOUS concert, the awkward silence when handing out awards, the horrible host who didn't even play games and mocked us as gamers, and handing out GOTY during the middle of the damn show not the end? Oh yeah they took our advise alright, more like they took a shit in the face of the gaming community! I have absolutely no confidence in this years show. I'll be reading the after action report on how it crashed and burned again the day after.
THUMBS THIS UP SO HE CAN SEE IT! Please Angry Joe come up with some kind of statement we should send to the google feedback button found at the very bottom of every youtube tab. Make a video about it and have everyone highlight the youtube logo as an issue, and let google know that they're ruining the gaming community on youtube. I know we don't have much power here on youtube, but there is power in numbers and you have the numbers I lack to start a movement of this style. Maybe if you do this other big time youtube'r will make note of this as well. PLEASE WE NEED TO MAKE A STAND.
ifWE need to make a stand why ask some one else do it yourself you lazy fuck, stop expecting other people to fix your problems no matter how unpopular you are and how popular Joe is, stop eing a lazy slob and DO SOMETHING yourself
Joel was the best. He was a highlight of the entire show. He was the outsider, a person that's not really into games, that came into the "gaming" crowd and saw all the ass-licking, commercialization, cheesiness, casualization, he saw it. And he cringed. That's why he was sarcastic, why he was constantly trying to ask uncomfortable questions and expose the bullshit pouring out of these greedy developer's mouths. I want more, more of that, more Joel, Conen O'Brian, people that aren't "inside" and can give their honest opinions.
Exactly. I'm fucking sick of game shows, they always look ridiculous and as if it was for teenagers. Joel just brought that up to people's attention and suddenly they hate him? No, they hate themselves for being blind.
This would work... if it was a comedy skit. I understand your point for him to be the "straight" guy in these situations but it is just excessive to say the least. So many game developers who are talking passionately about their game have to deal with his nonsense eventually cutting the interview short before things got out of hand. Angry Joe here nailed it. The VGX really needs to shutdown it's bullshit tirade if it plans to take itself more seriously. We want a gaming show about gaming, this means titles like "Shroud of the Avatar" from Richard Garriott himself. Where is this interview? Bring veteran game developers to talk about game design and concepts. Get them more obscure developers and bring them to the spotlight to show how diverse gaming can be. I can't believe I'm saying this but the VGA awards is actually more entertaining than this, and it incorporated every negative point Joel tried to call out from. This would be the first and last VGX I will pay attention to. Unless I heard they've corrected this problem for next year, I won't be viewing it any longer. A total waste and opportunity and I hope Geoff rectifies this problem next time around.
Michael Mike The whole ceremony was a joke because the "gaming" industry is a fucking joke. Nominated games were all AAA "cinematic" QTE crap, with no soul or substance in them. Joel saw that, Joel has to deal with much more advanced bullshit in TV and movie industry every day, so seeing the low-tier bullshit that is sold to 16-yo "target demographic" of AAA crap was hilarious to him.
I cringe every time I remember something like BF4 demo of first gameplay, where 'players' talked to each other like a bunch of 5yo children pretending to be serious.
Yes! He should. Here's the best game EVER! And here's the award for the WORST GAME EVER MADE IN THE HISTORY I HAVE SEEN! In could see him doing something like that....
because the year before, the year i was talking about in my comment, it was called VGA's for video game awards!! there was no VGX last year XD how do you no know this???
THANK GOD someone else realizes how annoying and unfunny Loiter Squad is. In an entire show of terribleness, they definitely stood out more than the rest.
this video came out 3 years ago.. This was the very first reveal of the game dude... HAHAHA They were praising it cause that video was fucking amazing! (3 years later I can say I am disappointing however)
Thank you Joe. Its been an off day and I haven't so much as cracked a smile today, but I watched your video and cried in laughter! Thank you so much man
You've probably been asked this before Joe, but if you were ever given the chance (or money) to make an Awards show like this, would you take it? Because what you pointed out in this video, it would be pretty awesome.
I say the gaming side of TGWTG (including spoony or any other willing past members), the AVGN, Machinima, RT, egoraptor, and Mega 64 should get together and do their own video game awards. Look if RT could get a convention, then I'm sure you all combined could put something together, and honestly, we'd have the potential for the best internet crossover event of all time.
The VGX awards were a fucking joke. It reeked of a major "bro" bias and just awful execution. Joel was unfunny and clearly had no interest in the project. The prerecorded production felt rushed and cheap. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds was not even nominated for best Action/Adventure game. Instead GTA V was nominated. It's not even a fucking Action/Adventure game. And GTA V winning best game over Last of Us? What a load of shit. Cramming more shit onto a disc with a 400 million dollar budget is not an achievement. Making you bawl within twenty minutes of gameplay and revitalizing an almost hopelessly stale genre is an achievement. We need a real game awards show, live and on a stage. Winners would be chosen by an "academy" of sorts with a history in the gaming industry. Games would be evaluated on their appeal, artistic merit and technical achievement. And a conscious effort would be made to avoid fanboy favoritism.
Damn right. But this the VGX, they hate Nintendo and anything PC. After all it aint part of the "bro" mentality. I stopped watching these guys after they had the category for "best games fueled by mountain dew" -.- seriously wtf?
Creepynazgul Yeah, because obviously Nintendo is the saviour of all the Videogame industry and we should look up to them for their innovative and creative titles like Zelda and Mario. They are simply gods and should not in any way be criticized or made fun of, because that's heresy for all of the videogame community.
Exactly and just the passion he brings with him when it comes to the industry. It'll be a step in the right direction. He'll bring the professionalism with some humor.
The one guy would've thrown a fist and Joel would've grabbed his head and stuck it in those turning gears behind him, blood would spray everywhere...then he would suddenly look around and be like "oh my ghad what'd I just do?"
After seeing your interview with Geoff Keighley, I just haven't been able to look at these "Video Game Awards" the same way. So long as that douchebag is in some way involved with these awards, I'll continue to not watch or even care about them.
L1nKo64 Although it wasn't a great way to start off the interview, he obviously said it in a joking manner. It also doesn't change the fact that he was put last in line, and that he basically had to grab Geoff at the last second and was told to hurry it up since he didn't have much time. How you can possibly defend Geoff "Doritos" Keighley in that situation is beyond me. That guy was about as big a dick as they come.
Chubzdoomer No, no he did not. He was aggressive and ill prepared. Hence his faltering attempts to name MMO that came out that year...and then mentioned FF..the MMO known for how good it was, come on.
L1nKo64 He wasn't so much ill-prepared as he was rushed and "put on the spot." It was a tactic Geoff purposely used to make him seem like an ill-prepared, uneducated idiot. It all began with Geoff starting the interview with, "You've got two minutes. Go."
Geoff Keighley is the executive producer, if anyone is to blame for this shit it is him. Honestly Joel dissing everyone was way more interesting then listening to Keighley blather on with his usual safe boring questions or the loiter squad mumble about cheese.
They should've known better than to have Loiter Squad there, as if they were expecting the group to actually do a good job. Since when has Odd Future/Loiter Squad ever presented something in a professional and serious manner?
Joe, I have a serious question for you: why bother saving the Spike game awards? The Spike awards have ALWAYS been terrible and meaningless. Why save that? All the picks are obvious and often ad-related. The people running the show (on the network level) clearly don't give two shits about video games, either. Why on earth would you want MORE of that?
This is basically the equivalent of the Oscars, just a bunch of developers giving each other handjobs. It's a popularity contest where games that already have gotten a ton of exposure and press get even more.
They won't listen, these award shows are just circlejerks for fanboys and casuals, Joe should just make his own awards show with Polaris but more budget.
14:30 :: Just my humble opinion, but I don't think the show can be fixed. Apart from the indies, the video game industry as a whole is being held hostage by a handful of corporations. And no one making money from product placement is going to create an awards show without product placement.
Very true.I would like to add how the media that is paid off by corporations who hire ACTORS to act a certain way. Seem to be more geared toward the snarky rude "wanna be nerd" when it comes down to video games. There always has to be some "not so witty" shit talker who thinks they are witty. Its been such a major influence to many...it has become apparent in every day life...well almost.You notice it when you go to a game stop,a convention,and/or comicbook store you end up dealing with a bunch of snarky nerds who think they are edgy when in reality they are corny and lame as fuck! I don't remember gamer humor being this rude,this lame,and lacking actual humor either. I also remember my roomies claiming to be nerds.They can draw,they collect collectables,however the more I observed them the more I realized it was more of a TREND rather than something of a hobby one can enjoy immersing themselves in.I just facepalm myself when I get some dumb ass who thinks they are so fucking clever when in reality they are dumb as fuck! Like this dip shit who is dissing the other guy on VGX. These wanna be nerds are so fucking dense they don't realize how stupid they make themselves out to be. These guy definitely were not around when video game magazines back in the 90's actually had some real humor in it. Just reading a piece of article made you crack up! These types including the rest of the wannabe nerd generation are nothing but clones what used to be the real deal.
I worry that the game companies wanted VGX to be a joke and not truly give game awards. Once awards are given to game titles the customer knows which ones are of higher quality and will choose to ignore the non-awarded titles. Instead they make the game ratings and the whole show a joke, get payed a lot by GTA's Rockstar and show previews of all titles making it a gigantic game commercial that each game company can agree on. What Angry Joe negotiated sounds better to us gamers who watched the VGX, but turning it into a giant buy all games commercial was music to the game companies' ears.
the worst part was that THE LAST OF US should have won game of the year, it was clear that GTA Vwon because of its popularity, but THE LAST OF US is the better and more memorable game.
I thought about the same thing Romeo, but i believe that the votes are made by the viewers, right? Im not sure. In my opinion GTA5 won because its a multiplatform game, i think if the last of us was on Xbox then i think there was a big possible chance that it would have won... Still, its your personal opinion that you are stating here, keep that in mind. You should try to bring you opinion like that, 'your opinion'. Your saying it like its a proven fact that the last of us is the better and more memorable game..... You might think why on earth i take time to react :) I dont know myself, i just wanted to do it :) Best wishes to you in the coming weeks.
The winter chapter alone in TLOU was better than anything I had played this year. The structure, storytelling and pacing was perfect. Just incredible. Something I and alot of gamers will remember for years to come.
Mack Bradley I'm not trying to defend that guy, but no one played the multiplayer. I mean NO NO. Everyone assumed it was just a tacked on, piece of shit thing and ignored it. When really, it is one of the best multiplayer experiences I have ever taken part in. Shit, there were some people who didnt even KNOW it had a multiplayer, and they just sold the thing to gamestop after beating the campaign. What a shame.
Joel McHale wasn't the problem. He just compounded the fact that they were able to put together a 3 hour show with almost no gameplay, minimal awards, weird celebrity guests, and forced commercial stuff...
Tyler the Creators lyrics were absolutely horrible. Hate all you want but, this sort of thing is why I stopped listening to rap and listen to rock. Are there horrible rock songs? Yes. But it's less common in rock than in modern day rap. I don't even know what people are thinking these days when they like people that talk about raping pregnant women and calling it a threesome. That is absolutely appalling and I realize now that this world is losing all hope very quickly.
you really aren't understanding his music. Try and actually look deeper into the music before you criticize it. I'd really like to talk to you about this. If you could PM me or something I'd appreciate it
mrmatthewdee1 I would PM you but I honestly don't know how the fuck to do that anymore because of google+ and I'm not sure how looking deeper into his music would make me think that raping a pregnant woman would be any less derogatory or any less appalling.
CoreyBlauvelt certainly it won't make you think it's a good message. It's not and tyler's not advocating it or anything like that. The song is telling a story, more character development. In all his albums it's a little story. This song was written from (I'm pretty sure) the antagonist who is a crazy guy and says crazy shit
2016 video game awards should include Angry Joe, Other Joe, Jim Sterling, JonTron, Greg Miller, AlphaOmegaSin, TotalBuscuit, Black Nerd Comedy, Boogie, Caddicarus and Super BunnyHop
johnny millennium is prob my favourit youtuber in terms of gaming content. He seems like a cool guy and his videos seem like they actually are honest and come from his heart.
spongeaang98 blood dragon doesn't really count as dlc. its a standalone game, you don't need fc3 to play it. I think in the future games like that will become a sort of genre on their own.
How to assure VGA shows not suck. 1. Get people who are passionate about video games and their customers. 2. Make sure your announcers/hosts have good chemistry. 3. Stay as far as you can from Ubisoft. 4. Do your homework on who you decide should hold a mic. 5. Don't overdo on single topics. 6. don't overdo advertisements. 7. Don't let assholes run the show.
Uhm no? Don't you remember video where Joe was doing interview with Microsoft employe? He told Joe that " Xbox is future? Do you want to be with us during future" and Joe said "Yes". He lost my respect.
I love Jole Mchale so much for this. He's like kid in class who is smarter than the teacher and gets assigned some standardized, uncreative assignment and then proceeds to completely subvert the teacher's expectations by brilliantly mocking the assignment, while simultaneously undermining the educational institution as a whole. Anyone who hires this guy as their spokesperson does so at their own peril.
After watching the 2010 VGA video and this back to back, I gotta say Joe and Geoff have my respect. Joe's passion and vision for a better VGA, and in some places Geoff's, really make the whole fight between them tragic. Even with how heated things got, Joe always gave real advice on where to improve and gave credit to the shows many improvements. This video ends with telling us how they met up and reconciled before the 2013 show's disgraceful display, and that really speaks to both of their characters. Geoff's speech about how NMS (regardless of how it played out in the future) inspired him and showed what his hope for the show really was. This was truly sincere and commendable. 2013 was the last showing for the VGA's ever, but I think people like Joe could have helped Geoff really reach that vision they both shared for a better award show for gamers. I wish them the best and hope that one day we will have that award show.
VGX is an insult to gamers worldwide.
Why doesn't this have more likes?
Spoderman yeah good thing they are over now
true
+FistKitso Literally !
+cchdz they need in 2016 VGX hosted by Angry Joe

"PO-TA-TOS! PO-TA-TOS! PO-TA-TOS!"
"HOLY CRAP!"
HAHA LOOK WHO IT IS
Nfkrz ?
this part is exactly why i keep coming back to this video
Am I the only one who thought Joel was actually slightly entertaining? I loved seeing Geoff Keighley get the same douchebaggerry that he dished/dishes out to other people, only with added truth.
You're right Nigel. Joel was the best part, he saw through the bullshit of the vgx
Nigel Thornberry It was rather smashing.
+Nigel Thornberry SMASHING truuth!!
+Nigel Thornberry He actually is the best part of that VGX, but the problem was he did that throughout the show and some segments just had too much Joel in it, the best parts were basically Joel ripping on Geoff (who deserved every bit of it)
"You can shoot the wall"
***** "my suit has shoulder pads" - Loiter squad VGX awards 2013.

"You can buy a donut!"
Me: *Facepalm* no fuck this shit im out gonna play on my 3ds with my animal crossing and legend if zelda fuck this im out
"You can buy Cheese"
louisgworld "performance"
Did Joel do this whole thing as revenge for how Geoff treated Joe at the 2010 awards show? He shut him down in exactly the same way Geoff shut down Joe.
In hindsight probably.
What are you referring to exactly
Majority of the celebs they get to host them are not gamers they're just paid to say they are
Ye I'd say so too. I remember an ad for a new FIFA game that had Lil' Wayne and Drake in it saying they loved the series yet they looked like they had no idea how to play the game.
Only celebs I know are gamer's is Michelle Rodriquez, Robin Williams.
Joeyal123 well then I guess that narrows down to one...RIP robby
Joeyal123 will.i.am is also a gamer
+Joeyal123 Wait what, celebs play farmvill too xD! True gamer at heart cause Soduko ^^
Joe should be the host for VGX lol
For real. You need people that represent the community and not a puppet of a corperation that says they are for the community. Gaming should have the craziest award shows of them all but they don't. Why? CUZ FUCK YOU GIVE ME MONEY!!!
***** NO! I mean't it the way I wrote it!
Daniel Faiz they realized they fucked up and dropped it
Daniel Faiz Yeah except nobody actually respects AJ in the gaming community/industry. They think he's a joke.
xXxM0nteNegr0xXx *meant
I remember that at one point in this show, Geoff turned to Joell and sarcastically said ''Joell, I can sense your enthusiasm.''
this is 2016 and i still remember this shit... that will NEVER happen again unfortunately
Eugenio Hertz unfortunately???
did you not find that hilarious?
Why woulden't you remember it? It was 3 years ago from when you posted this comment, not 30..
Joel McHale was trying to bring down the injustice of the VGX. He was trying to show the audience the difference of what the VGX was made to be (a giant advertisement to the most expensive developers), and what the VGX should be (recognition for great games).
Nicholas Persaud ^ This.
Its essentially an event where people pat each other on the back for being considerably wealthy.
Really? Giving out the award to Naughty Dog he just seemed to be his usual self and not give a shit about anything.
Not saying its a bad thing, hes the best thing in whatever he is invovled in.
How about skip rap altogether. How about since it's , you know "games", how about we bring the people who make the soundtracks.

If the future is bad music I rather would be stuck in the past with all the talent.
*****
Um....I was calling myself a music nerd. I was adding an adjective to his "nerd".
EsechavaHD You're saying he's stuck in the past when the use of Nerd as an insult lost any sort of negative connotation decades ago, lolk
Perfect comment, sir.
The VGX were trying to make the awards more like the MTV awards, forgetting that the MTV awards have been shit for the past 11 years.
God I remember how terrible this VGX was. It couldn't of been more of a disaster. A fight breaking out between the hosts would of improved it.
All I know is that I'm not going to watch this years VGA/X or whatever the fuck they call it now.
ikr i would pay to see that
***** The Game Awards (TGA)
*****
Nice
Sweet good to hear
***** Dude, last year the whole premise around last years show was that they took peoples advice and it was the worst one yet!
Do I have to remind you about the "I love potatoes!" guy, the HORRENDOUS concert, the awkward silence when handing out awards, the horrible host who didn't even play games and mocked us as gamers, and handing out GOTY during the middle of the damn show not the end?
Oh yeah they took our advise alright, more like they took a shit in the face of the gaming community! I have absolutely no confidence in this years show. I'll be reading the after action report on how it crashed and burned again the day after.
I face palmed so hard I ate my hand.
Why don't you take a seat over there..
***** ROFL
watching Joe laugh at the VGX was funnier than the VGX
THUMBS THIS UP SO HE CAN SEE IT!
Please Angry Joe come up with some kind of statement we should send to the google feedback button found at the very bottom of every youtube tab. Make a video about it and have everyone highlight the youtube logo as an issue, and let google know that they're ruining the gaming community on youtube.

Sr.Don Filio Joe has over a million subs so he could probably make a difference rather than EverythingSmash so PLEASE shut the fuck up.
Sr.Don Filio because he needs help, not one person can make Google change TH-cam, but a lot of people together can.
then why dosent he make a video of himself asking for help from all of us instead of asking some else to do it???

Who wants to start a petition to get Angry Joe and other prominent members of the Angry Army to host the next VGX?
I didnt watch the VGX, but just watching them clips just made me cringe T_T

oh man. the feels.....man..
I feel it, bra!
Lord Voldemort i feel it lord Voldemort. I FEEL IT OOOOOOH

You done fucked it up lol
Joe. Produce your own awards show. I mean it.
He kind of already has one at the end of the year.
theking9957 that's true
theking9957 And they're better quality and more fun to watch than any of the VGA/VGX shows have been...
Steven Williamson Couldn't agree more
Yes! He should. Here's the best game EVER! And here's the award for the WORST GAME EVER MADE IN THE HISTORY I HAVE SEEN! In could see him doing something like that....
Wow Joe if your still sick why did you watch something this infectious?
Sounds like the VGX Awards were done by a bunch of teenagers.
VGA's 2012 was amazing, 2013 was a disgrace! if i was valve i would refused to put the show on steam again
dude VGA stands for video game awards! did you seriously not know that? XD
because the year before, the year i was talking about in my comment, it was called VGA's for video game awards!! there was no VGX last year XD how do you no know this???
its was bro, a million time better than VGX.
yes it was lol its was epic!! i enjoyed every minute of the VGA's but VGX is horrid!
better be samueal jackson than the idiots they hired the year after. at least i enjoyed watch samuel jackson
I love how Odd Future didnt give a FUCK. They just didnt give a shit about the VGX awards in general
That redeemed the vgx for me
that made them pretty funny though.
Of course they didnt. I mean who would? Its an online only thing. Event was not really advertised and he's getting paid so fucking why not?
It was literally like a live action GTA parody of an award show sponsored by Adult Swim. xD
LOL
THANK GOD someone else realizes how annoying and unfunny Loiter Squad is. In an entire show of terribleness, they definitely stood out more than the rest.
Yeah, who were these dicks anyways? They just sounded like dumbasses.
joel They are black people who make a show about how funny it is to be black.
19:12 Its funny to see people praise No Man's Sky given the fact that it was such a disappointment.
this video came out 3 years ago.. This was the very first reveal of the game dude... HAHAHA They were praising it cause that video was fucking amazing! (3 years later I can say I am disappointing however)
Patch Rowcester it wasnt a disappointment if you knew it was trash before it came out.
Patch Rowcester That's because the video that joe mentioned about no man's sky is nothing like the actual game was
WindyJ23 Gee....thanks a lot.
Hindsight is always 20/20...
I vote for The AngryJoeShow Awards 2016!
Don't you all miss when G4 was a gaming friendly channel?
"You can buy a baseball bat"
Actually, you can't.
what about "YOU CAN BUY CHEESE!"
hanknaruto12 lmao
VGX Awards wasn't exactly the same as COD...
- 7/10, IGN
Joel was being jeff from Community
Joe: You should correct it. BROTHERS: A TALE OF TWO SONS IS A MULTIPLATFORM GAME!
Why don't we just get a ton of TH-cam gaming/review channels together and hold our own award shows on our own website.
Thank you Joe. Its been an off day and I haven't so much as cracked a smile today, but I watched your video and cried in laughter! Thank you so much man
I enjoyed it as well
1:31
Angry Joe is not amused.
That "rapper" is what's wrong with hip hop/rap
I don't hate Loiter squad, but you know it's bad when they are the highlight of a video game award show...
I hate loiter squad... they suck
You can tell Joel's only purpose for being there was to troll Geoff. Worth it :)
You've probably been asked this before Joe, but if you were ever given the chance (or money) to make an Awards show like this, would you take it? Because what you pointed out in this video, it would be pretty awesome.
NoobMister your comment maybe four years old but fuck me that verified tick made me laugh so fkn hard, good job
Now I know why Bethesda didnt want to set foot in there.
I just hope fallout 4 gets the reveal it deserves.
I love the idea of Jack Black as a host/co-host, I support this suggestion.
Wow....just....wow
You know Jack Black would be a great idea for a host or co host....I mean....he was a host for nickalodeon twice.
I want to quit being a gamer after this
haha :D SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!
2016 and i'm still cringingmy ass of
hey sasuke, I've seen you comment on other of vids I watch. you're cool :)
I say the gaming side of TGWTG (including spoony or any other willing past members), the AVGN, Machinima, RT, egoraptor, and Mega 64 should get together and do their own video game awards. Look if RT could get a convention, then I'm sure you all combined could put something together, and honestly, we'd have the potential for the best internet crossover event of all time.
The VGX awards were a fucking joke. It reeked of a major "bro" bias and just awful execution. Joel was unfunny and clearly had no interest in the project. The prerecorded production felt rushed and cheap. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds was not even nominated for best Action/Adventure game. Instead GTA V was nominated. It's not even a fucking Action/Adventure game. And GTA V winning best game over Last of Us? What a load of shit. Cramming more shit onto a disc with a 400 million dollar budget is not an achievement. Making you bawl within twenty minutes of gameplay and revitalizing an almost hopelessly stale genre is an achievement.
We need a real game awards show, live and on a stage. Winners would be chosen by an "academy" of sorts with a history in the gaming industry. Games would be evaluated on their appeal, artistic merit and technical achievement. And a conscious effort would be made to avoid fanboy favoritism.
Damn right. But this the VGX, they hate Nintendo and anything PC. After all it aint part of the "bro" mentality. I stopped watching these guys after they had the category for "best games fueled by mountain dew" -.- seriously wtf?
Creepynazgul Yeah, because obviously Nintendo is the saviour of all the Videogame industry and we should look up to them for their innovative and creative titles like Zelda and Mario.
They are simply gods and should not in any way be criticized or made fun of, because that's heresy for all of the videogame community.
Creepynazgul
Wait, they actually have a dumbass category for that?
GTA V is fucking awesome
Adam Sessler for host! Now that's one hell of a safe bet.
The man is a smart class act with a good sense of humor. Sounds good to me.
Exactly and just the passion he brings with him when it comes to the industry. It'll be a step in the right direction. He'll bring the professionalism with some humor.
Dear god, yes.
I do not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
lol 6 years later and i just realized that was tyler the creator. im glad i came back to this vid.
1:25 man those dudes are really happy about shooting walls in GTA.
And potatoes.
I liked when Reggie threatened to beat Geoff to death with Cranky's cane.
I think Joel was paid to Rig the show.
The one guy would've thrown a fist and Joel would've grabbed his head and stuck it in those turning gears behind him, blood would spray everywhere...then he would suddenly look around and be like "oh my ghad what'd I just do?"
LOL xD
You can shoot THE WALL. OMG BEST GAME EVAR 20/10.
my suite has shoulder pads
TheRyanthecool I love driving the cars.
And killing Hookers!
Sage French You ruined it. You have to quote 8:10
It what I am here for
After seeing your interview with Geoff Keighley, I just haven't been able to look at these "Video Game Awards" the same way. So long as that douchebag is in some way involved with these awards, I'll continue to not watch or even care about them.
Yeah because starting a interview with 'I HAVE A BONE TO PICK WITH YOU' is perfectly acceptable. Come the fuck on.
L1nKo64 Although it wasn't a great way to start off the interview, he obviously said it in a joking manner. It also doesn't change the fact that he was put last in line, and that he basically had to grab Geoff at the last second and was told to hurry it up since he didn't have much time. How you can possibly defend Geoff "Doritos" Keighley in that situation is beyond me. That guy was about as big a dick as they come.
Chubzdoomer
No, no he did not. He was aggressive and ill prepared. Hence his faltering attempts to name MMO that came out that year...and then mentioned FF..the MMO known for how good it was, come on.
L1nKo64 He wasn't so much ill-prepared as he was rushed and "put on the spot." It was a tactic Geoff purposely used to make him seem like an ill-prepared, uneducated idiot. It all began with Geoff starting the interview with, "You've got two minutes. Go."
Geoff Keighley is the executive producer, if anyone is to blame for this shit it is him. Honestly Joel dissing everyone was way more interesting then listening to Keighley blather on with his usual safe boring questions or the loiter squad mumble about cheese.
The thing that was the final straw for me was when Joel called Titanfall an Xbox exclusive WHEN IT'S ALSO ON PC.
wow.... How tragic.
They should've known better than to have Loiter Squad there, as if they were expecting the group to actually do a good job. Since when has Odd Future/Loiter Squad ever presented something in a professional and serious manner?
Every time I see Geoff Keighley's deadeyed stare, I just think "Sellout, Sellout, Sellout".
Oh and Lauren - Put that Square Enix line back in your CV.
I feel like Joel knew what a piece of shit the show was.
Literally anyone who isn't the gaming equivalent of cancer would realise that VGX is a piece of shit.
You know who should host the next VGX?
Angry Fucking Joe!
Seriously, you should have been up there bro!
Hosts:
Jack Black
Burnie Burns
Angry Joe
Nathan Fillion
Adam Montoya(SeaNanners)
Adam Kovic
Freddy Wong
Joe, I have a serious question for you: why bother saving the Spike game awards? The Spike awards have ALWAYS been terrible and meaningless. Why save that? All the picks are obvious and often ad-related. The people running the show (on the network level) clearly don't give two shits about video games, either. Why on earth would you want MORE of that?
Exactly! Trailers are good, but when the fucking cast of Jersey Shore presents it, I feel it hinders my excitement quite a bit.
This is basically the equivalent of the Oscars, just a bunch of developers giving each other handjobs. It's a popularity contest where games that already have gotten a ton of exposure and press get even more.
Dat laugh
lol, and those VGX clips were just so awkward...
Ughhhh...I hate how they were harassing Reggie asking him so many questions that they have no business with...I found it to be really rude...
i'm going to be very surprised if Geoff doesn't take any of your advice next year
They won't listen, these award shows are just circlejerks for fanboys and casuals, Joe should just make his own awards show with Polaris but more budget.
Yeah, he can get Mickey Mouse to help make it FUN
The 2017 awards were pretty good.
Andrew this was at the time before the new show format existed.
Angry Joe as the host
14:30 :: Just my humble opinion, but I don't think the show can be fixed. Apart from the indies, the video game industry as a whole is being held hostage by a handful of corporations. And no one making money from product placement is going to create an awards show without product placement.
Very true.I would like to add how the media that is paid off by corporations who hire ACTORS to act a certain way. Seem to be more geared toward the snarky rude "wanna be nerd" when it comes down to video games. There always has to be some "not so witty" shit talker who thinks they are witty. Its been such a major influence to many...it has become apparent in every day life...well almost.You notice it when you go to a game stop,a convention,and/or comicbook store you end up dealing with a bunch of snarky nerds who think they are edgy when in reality they are corny and lame as fuck! I don't remember gamer humor being this rude,this lame,and lacking actual humor either. I also remember my roomies claiming to be nerds.They can draw,they collect collectables,however the more I observed them the more I realized it was more of a TREND rather than something of a hobby one can enjoy immersing themselves in.I just facepalm myself when I get some dumb ass who thinks they are so fucking clever when in reality they are dumb as fuck! Like this dip shit who is dissing the other guy on VGX. These wanna be nerds are so fucking dense they don't realize how stupid they make themselves out to be. These guy definitely were not around when video game magazines back in the 90's actually had some real humor in it. Just reading a piece of article made you crack up! These types including the rest of the wannabe nerd generation are nothing but clones what used to be the real deal.
I skipped it. What the hell else would I do? It just sucked ass.
With Loiter Squad at least Tyler was fucking trying, everyone else was just a fucking embarrassment.
Curse some more it makes you look smart and cool.
Kbholla fuck
Anybody come back to watch Joe's initial reaction to nms? Memories.
I worry that the game companies wanted VGX to be a joke and not truly give game awards. Once awards are given to game titles the customer knows which ones are of higher quality and will choose to ignore the non-awarded titles. Instead they make the game ratings and the whole show a joke, get payed a lot by GTA's Rockstar and show previews of all titles making it a gigantic game commercial that each game company can agree on. What Angry Joe negotiated sounds better to us gamers who watched the VGX, but turning it into a giant buy all games commercial was music to the game companies' ears.
the worst part was that THE LAST OF US should have won game of the year, it was clear that GTA Vwon because of its popularity, but THE LAST OF US is the better and more memorable game.
I thought about the same thing Romeo, but i believe that the votes are made by the viewers, right? Im not sure.
In my opinion GTA5 won because its a multiplatform game, i think if the last of us was on Xbox then i think there was a big possible chance that it would have won...
Still, its your personal opinion that you are stating here, keep that in mind. You should try to bring you opinion like that, 'your opinion'. Your saying it like its a proven fact that the last of us is the better and more memorable game.....
You might think why on earth i take time to react :) I dont know myself, i just wanted to do it :)
Best wishes to you in the coming weeks.
Well thats your opinion. Last of Us and GTA V were extremely close but GTA V had a lot more to win GOTY.
The winter chapter alone in TLOU was better than anything I had played this year. The structure, storytelling and pacing was perfect. Just incredible. Something I and alot of gamers will remember for years to come.
Mack Bradley
I'm not trying to defend that guy, but no one played the multiplayer. I mean NO NO. Everyone assumed it was just a tacked on, piece of shit thing and ignored it. When really, it is one of the best multiplayer experiences I have ever taken part in. Shit, there were some people who didnt even KNOW it had a multiplayer, and they just sold the thing to gamestop after beating the campaign. What a shame.
Mack Bradley Nah, it wasn't anything special, the ending ruined the game for me and I quickly forgot about it. (Freaking Joel and his daughter-fetish)
My parents could have planned a better award show and they don't even know how to hold a controller. Glad this year wasn't that bad.
What's the band and songs name that Angry Joe suggested
As non terminally ill Joe (Get well soon Joe) would say "YOU DUN FUCKED IT UP"
Joel McHale wasn't the problem. He just compounded the fact that they were able to put together a 3 hour show with almost no gameplay, minimal awards, weird celebrity guests, and forced commercial stuff...
Tyler the Creators lyrics were absolutely horrible. Hate all you want but, this sort of thing is why I stopped listening to rap and listen to rock. Are there horrible rock songs? Yes. But it's less common in rock than in modern day rap. I don't even know what people are thinking these days when they like people that talk about raping pregnant women and calling it a threesome. That is absolutely appalling and I realize now that this world is losing all hope very quickly.
you really aren't understanding his music. Try and actually look deeper into the music before you criticize it. I'd really like to talk to you about this. If you could PM me or something I'd appreciate it
Literally no one gives a fuck.
mrmatthewdee1 I would PM you but I honestly don't know how the fuck to do that anymore because of google+ and I'm not sure how looking deeper into his music would make me think that raping a pregnant woman would be any less derogatory or any less appalling.
Michael X That's wonderful! Have a nice day and a Merry Christmas!
CoreyBlauvelt certainly it won't make you think it's a good message. It's not and tyler's not advocating it or anything like that. The song is telling a story, more character development. In all his albums it's a little story. This song was written from (I'm pretty sure) the antagonist who is a crazy guy and says crazy shit
'You can buy cheese!'
I know I'm late but...wow...this really is amazing
Jesus christ the youtube comedy week, youtube music awards and this VGX are like forgettable trainwrecks,WTF is happing
Just watching the clips caused me physical pain.
2016 video game awards should include Angry Joe, Other Joe, Jim Sterling, JonTron, Greg Miller, AlphaOmegaSin, TotalBuscuit, Black Nerd Comedy, Boogie, Caddicarus and Super BunnyHop
+Vicky Ponchinlan and it should be hosted by Loiter Squad
Greg Miller is an IGNorant scumbag, same with TotalBiscuit he started to talk against customers in recent years so fuck both
everyone you mentioned yes but no black nerd comedy. can't stand that guy
Vicky Ponchinlan and petedorr and Johnny millennium
johnny millennium is prob my favourit youtuber in terms of gaming content. He seems like a cool guy and his videos seem like they actually are honest and come from his heart.
We need more Samuel L. Jackson.
I don't think Joe is capable of making a short video.
And I love it that way.
I think Joe is capable to not care what you think.
Also the fact that the Citadel DLC didn't win DLC of the year is a fucking war crime... Seriously.
Nah, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon earned that one.
spongeaang98 blood dragon doesn't really count as dlc. its a standalone game, you don't need fc3 to play it. I think in the future games like that will become a sort of genre on their own.
spongeaang98 Blood Dragon isn't DLC.
Truly this is the sin of video game presentations.
fucking choked on my drink at the wii drums part
+Cody Cotten I read that as "choked on my dick"
+Speedy Gonzales. Well, you know...
Have some ice cubes
VGX is a joke written in the history book of gaming
Vargas, I think you should make your own Video Game Awards with TH-cam gamer celebrities. Just saying. :P
How to assure VGA shows not suck.
1. Get people who are passionate about video games and their customers.
2. Make sure your announcers/hosts have good chemistry.
3. Stay as far as you can from Ubisoft.
4. Do your homework on who you decide should hold a mic.
5. Don't overdo on single topics.
6. don't overdo advertisements.
7. Don't let assholes run the show.
Why does it show no man's sky in the description? What Easter egg is this?
If the VGX awards have any sense, they will hire Joe as a consultant for next years show.
To talk how Xbox One is future?
wiziek
To Talk how Xbox One is absolute shit?
Uhm no? Don't you remember video where Joe was doing interview with Microsoft employe? He told Joe that " Xbox is future? Do you want to be with us during future" and Joe said "Yes". He lost my respect.
wiziek
I think that the Xbone is inferior as well, but it will have some good exclusives and if someone can afford both why not?
Michael Goldbach Play whatever you want on whatever you want. Just this attitude was sad.
This . . . actually embarrasses me to witness
a train wreck was better than that theres no word that would describe that shit
The VGX is not the Award Show gamers want right now its the Award Show gamers need. LOL not even I could say that without laughing.
VGX was practically the video game awards for hipsters.
Joe, you and your gang should make the Angry Awards Show. AAS!!!
Or the Angry Stars Show: ASS
Yeah I'll second that, Joe already has an amazing following for being just such a damn solid critic that...cares so damn much. AAS!!!
I love Jole Mchale so much for this. He's like kid in class who is smarter than the teacher and gets assigned some standardized, uncreative assignment and then proceeds to completely subvert the teacher's expectations by brilliantly mocking the assignment, while simultaneously undermining the educational institution as a whole.
Anyone who hires this guy as their spokesperson does so at their own peril.
After watching the 2010 VGA video and this back to back, I gotta say Joe and Geoff have my respect. Joe's passion and vision for a better VGA, and in some places Geoff's, really make the whole fight between them tragic.
Even with how heated things got, Joe always gave real advice on where to improve and gave credit to the shows many improvements. This video ends with telling us how they met up and reconciled before the 2013 show's disgraceful display, and that really speaks to both of their characters. Geoff's speech about how NMS (regardless of how it played out in the future) inspired him and showed what his hope for the show really was. This was truly sincere and commendable.
2013 was the last showing for the VGA's ever, but I think people like Joe could have helped Geoff really reach that vision they both shared for a better award show for gamers. I wish them the best and hope that one day we will have that award show.
