Sacred Symbols+, Episode 425 |  Subverting (and Replacing?) The Game Awards (Video)

Comments

I have always loved Craig and i still do. Would not mind more episodes of SS+ with him. His knowledge is deep. Especially in retro gaming.

Mr. Malf

Saw his Award show's categories and it's so unserious and mean spirited. I don't care how successful he is or that he's "doing something." Craig is clearly a cancer to the industry, just like the Kotaku camp that's heavily criticized.

The people spazzing out over Craig are the same people who tell you you're not allowed to say anything negative about Jaffe, because he's Colin's guest.

Joseph Gedgaudas

Maybe he could say this before the game awards on Thursday but as a gamer I think the game awards was very in touch with the gaming audience

With an exception of the 2 shitty ones where they brought out a bunch of non gamers to the show. And the one that kept pumping out the nominees and awards with no speeches. I've always thought the game awards were fine, better than that sometimes it's great. It's all just as important as cheering for your favorite sports team. Who fucken cares. It I'll never replace E3 but getting hyped for a brand spanking new trailer for an unknown project is still exciting.

He can have anyone he wants on. That doesn’t make Craig any less of a cunt.

sam croese

people aren't allowed to have opinions anymore?

Wyvborn

Yeah imagine having a different opinion and expressing it!

Pat Cosgriff

The game awards were great and astrobot deserves it. Don’t need to replace the game awards at all

Leothesixth

Absolutely psychotic that you guys throw a fit because Colin has someone on you guys don’t agree with. If you don’t like the guest, don’t watch it and move on.

Keenan

It is certainly an interesting idea to have awards that are only voted on by gamers. Because you guys are totally right that there is a massive disconnect between journalists/developers and gamers these days. This year particularly. My honest opinion is we dont need any award shows. But competition is always good I wish you the best Craig.

Amazing episode thank you 🙏

Matthew Major

Craig fucking sucks.

Pat Cosgriff

I'm going to stick with free-to-play award shows, which is all of them. Best of luck with this though! -The internet is a vast abyss, I'm sure many will pay your $1,337 yearly award show membership fee.

Great chat! I appreciate a nuanced take on the Game Awards. Certainly, it can do better in what it does. But, you both don’t look at it as something to destroy but instead a lane driven on… and roads have many lanes, so you find your own. So easy to hate (even when warranted). It is much more difficult to act (so much unrewarded prep is required, with no promise of success). I respect the drive. ✊ Best of luck, with the REAL Game Awards! 🫡

Matty and Cog look wildly different from last week 😳😂 Looking forward to seeing their VGA coverage later!!
