Après 10 ans, les Video Game Awards de Spike TV changent de nom et deviennent VGX, un nouveau gala de maintenent 3 heures avec des dévoilements en exclusivité de bande-annonces, des démonstrations vidéos des jeux à venir et des interviews avec les studios de développement.

VGX: The Next Generation Of The Video Game Awards

Spike TV announced today the launch of VGX, a brand new live digital multi-platform event that is a binge-viewers dream for gamers. This all-day gaming experience is the next generation of Spike TV’s “Video Game Awards” franchise and will be the most widely distributed live gaming event of all time with the potential reach of over 100 million households.

VGX will be streamed across Xbox One, Xbox 360®, PlayStation®3 (PS3™), Twitch, iOS and Android devices, and available globally on VGXLIVE.com, Hulu, Yahoo Screen, the Yahoo Screen app and Viacom Media Networks properties Spike.com, ComedyCentral.com, MTV.com, MTV2.com, BET.com and GameTrailers.com. VGX will be live streamed for three-hours on Saturday, December 7, beginning at 6:00 PM ET / 3:00 PM PT. Spike TV will also air highlights of the show as "VGX Replay" on Monday, December 9 at midnight.

VGX will continue the tradition of showcasing world premiere game trailers but for the first time ever, the show will offer extended demos of the next generation of games, 1-on-1 interviews and panels. The new format allows VGX to dive deeper into the world of gaming and extend its coverage beyond award presentations in a more intimate studio setting.

VGX will be an interactive experience with Twitter as the exclusive social media platform enabling viewers to have a direct impact on the stream by voting on show order and unlocking additional content. Fans will also have unprecedented access to the industry’s top developers and talent with LIVE Q&A interviews powered by Twitter.

“Spike TV was the first network to embrace the gaming industry. For the last 10 years, the VGAs have honored its creative community and fans,” said Casey Patterson, Executive Vice President, Event Production, Talent Development & Studio Relations, Viacom Entertainment Group. “Until now, we have been limited to TV and a one way conversation with gamers. With the birth of new consoles and other emerging technology, VGX can interact with our audience like never before. This is an organic and exciting step for this franchise.”

"Over the last few years, we've seen digital audiences grow to scale for our video game events," said Erik Flannigan, EVP, Multi-Platform Strategy & Development, Viacom Entertainment Group. "So while the VGX format might be viewed as revolutionary, from the perspective of an audience who is already playing and watching on digital screens, it is actually an organic evolution to make a show for them first."

Fans can start voting today for Most Anticipated Game on VGXLIVE.com while the rest of the nominees for VGX will be announced next week. Nominees are determined by the VGX Advisory Council, made up of a group of some of the most well-respected video game journalists from media outlets such as Entertainment Weekly, Game Informer, Joystiq, Kotaku, Polygon, IGN, GameTrailers, Gamespot, Wired.com, USA Today and Associated Press.

Game Of The Year

BioShock Infinite

Bonne histoire, gameplay inférieur aux deux premiers.

Trop de hype et fin facile à prédire.

Grand Theft Auto V

Probablement le grand gagnant de cette année. Le jeu est très ambitieux et est grandement supérieur à GTA IV.

Je n'ai pas joué aux autres GTA, donc San Andreas et tout ce qui vient avec est "nouveau".

Jeu de l'année sûrement et avec GTA Online, ce sera peut-être même le jeu de l'année prochaine.

GTA V a le potentiel d'avoir une très longue vie utile si R* continue à garnir GTA Online de contenus et des expansions pour le jeu offline.

Super Mario 3D World

Too late to the party. Mais ce jeu sera excellent.

The Last of Us

This. Ce jeu était hypé et il a livré.

Excellente histoire et atmosphère. À plusieurs moments, j'étais sur le cul.

D'autres moments, j'étais impuissant devant les enemis, chose qu'on ne vivra jamais dans GTA V.

Le jeu online est excellent aussi.

On ne verra pas de jeu comme celui-ci l'an prochain.

Tomb Raider

Bon contender, mais la compétition est trop forte.

Studio Of The Year

Irrational Games

Naughty Dog

The Fullbright Company

Rockstar North

Je ne suis pas le genre à rechercher tout sur les développeurs, je préfère me concentrer sur les jeux.

Rockstar North a lancé un monstre avec GTA V et son énorme potentiel pour les années à venir.

59$ pour un jeu comme ça? Comparé aux Call of Dutys et FIFA qui ont une durée de vie d'un an, c'est awesome.

Best Shooter

Battlefield 4

Rival de Call of Duty. Pas mon genre de shooter. Meh.

BioShock Infinite

N'appartient pas vraiment dans la catégorie de "shooter" pur et dur comme BF4 et CoD.

Je préfère le voir gagner pour frustrer les fans du massacre de bons FPS.

Call of Duty: Ghosts

Dogs, dogs, dogs.

Fishes that moves if you get close.

Metro: Last Light

Can't say. Didn't play.

Best Action Adventure Game

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag

Une des franchises les plus milkée dans cette génération.

Mérite sa nomination, mais je suis convaincu qu'il ne gagnera pas.

Grand Theft Auto V

On se tannera jamais de GTA V. Mais, l'aspect aventure n'y pas vraiment si on est un habitué des GTA.

The Last of Us

J'ai adoré les endroits visités dans The Last of Us et il y a pas mal d'endroits mémorables.

L'université et la forêt en hiver sont mes favoris.

Tomb Raider

Pas joué. Mais, semble très prometteur.

Best Sports Game

FIFA 14

MLB 13: The Show

NBA 2K14

NHL 14

Meh.

Best Independent Game

Gone Home Watch

Kentucky Route Zero

Papers, Please

The Stanley Parable

Pas un consommateur de jeu indie. Je ne peux pas me prononcer.

Best RPG

Final Fantasy XIV Online: A Realm Reborn

Fire Emblem: Awakening

Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch

Pokemon X/Y

J'ai attendu et j'ai adoré. L'histoire, les features. Probablement un des meilleurs depuis HeartGold.

Best Fighting Game

Divekick

Injustice: Gods Among Us

Killer Instinct

Tekken Revolution

Seulement joué à Injustice.

Best Driving Game

F1 2013

Grid 2

Forza Motorsport 5

Need For Speed Rivals

Prédiction.

Best DLC

Borderlands 2: Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep

Dishonored: The Knife of Dunwall

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon

Mass Effect 3: Citadel

Je trouve cette catégorie ridicule.

Best Xbox Game

BioShock Infinite

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

Grand Theft Auto V

Tomb Raider

Le manque d'exclusivité est pathétique.

Best PlayStation Game

Grand Theft Auto V

Rayman Legends

The Last of Us

Tomb Raider

Best Nintendo Game

Pikmin 3

Rayman Legends

Super Mario 3D World

The Wonderful 101

Best PC Game

Battlefield 4

Gone Home - The Fullbright Company

Papers, Please - Lucas Pope

The Stanley Parable - Galactic Cafe

Prédiction

Best Handheld Game

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

Pokemon X/Y

Tearaway

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

Une suite au meilleur jeu de la série: Yes please.

Best Casual Game

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

Disney Infinity

Plants vs. Zombies 2: It’s About Time

Skylanders Swap Force

Prédiction.

Best Voice Actor

Troy Baker as Joel - The Last of Us / BioShock Infinite

Steven Ogg as Trevor Philips

Willem Dafoe as Nathan Dawkins

Trevor, quel personnage mémorable.

Best Voice Actress

Ashley Johnson as Ellie - The Last of Us

Courtnee Draper as Elizabeth - BioShock Infinite

Camilla Luddington as Lara Croft - Tomb Raider

Ellen Page as Jodie Holmes - Beyond: Two Souls

J'ai adoré Ellie dans The Last of Us. Alors c'est mon choix!

Best Soundtrack

BioShock Infinite

Grand Theft Auto V

Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch

The Last of Us

Prédiction.

Best Song in a Game

Pas mal redondant comme catégorie.

Most Anticipated Game

Destiny

Titanfall

South Park: The Stick of Truth

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Watch Dogs

Quoi? Un jeu de South Park qui ne suckera pas? I'm in.

[Janus]

Content de voir Papers Please dans les nominés pour les jeux indie... Le reste j'ai juste joué à Bioshock qui était très bien.

[John de Gray]

Je suis très déçu de ne pas voir Ni No Kuni dans la catégorie GOTY.

[Janus]

Pas vrai j'ai aussi joué au DLC de Borderlands 2, la parodie de Donjon Dragon et c'était pissant... vraiment réussi.

[John de Gray]

Blood Dragon était cocasse. Très court aussi comme ce message.

[KillerInstinct]

Je suis très déçu de ne pas voir Ni No Kuni dans la catégorie GOTY.

J'ai vraiment de la difficulté avec son gameplay. Pourtant au niveau de la présentation, du scénario c'est top niveau.

[Lokimor]

Très bon show, bien meilleur que ce qu'il se faisait avant.
