Hello everyone, and welcome to our live coverage of The Game Awards 2024! The show may still be a day away, but there’s already quite a few things to talk about ahead of its scheduled start time. There have been several teases of what to expect from the presentation from The Game Awards and its partners, all of which I’ll be covering here shortly.
There’s quite a bit of stiff competition in this year’s nominations, and there’s some noteworthy controversy too; many are frustrated with the inclusion of Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree in the running, for example, because it’s ultimately still a DLC expansion even if it is the size of a standalone game. As usual, there are also lots of fans who feel their favorite game got snubbed from Game of the Year nominations or other categories (that’s me with Helldivers 2, 100%).
Still, I’m hoping that it’ll be a great event, even if I still have a sour taste in my mouth from how The Game Awards 2023 let down developers and viewers alike by being more about advertisements and trailers than actually celebrating that year’s best and brightest titles. Fingers crossed! — Brendan Lowry, Gaming Contributor
