The Lazygamer Awards 2015 round-up

2015-Wrap

Sure, you’ve got the Game Awards. And various other famous ceremonies that highlight the very best games of the year. But none of them can hold a candle to the annual Lazygamer Awards, an event so prestigious that Samuel L Jackson once said “What” to us before his security tackled us through a wall. Brought to you from the legendary  Hell’s Kitchen (Which is actually my own kitchen because we spent the budget on Destiny micro-transactions), the Lazygamer Awards has it all!

Mouldy sandwiches! Flat coke! A two-week old portion of Lasagna that has developed sentience and sounds suspiciously just like Brian Blessed! Yessir, the Oscars can kiss our flattened asses when it comes to presentation. And in case you missed out on the Lazygamer Awards this week, here’s the complete wrap of it. In video form!

And links, because some of you like to read our word salads apparently:

    We can safely that after 40 years of gaming. 2015 was flipping crazy.

    Its got to the point now, where game awards are becoming irrelevant. This is not 120minutes of linear movies and who ever pulls off a good biopic drama gets an Oscar. This is an EXPLOSION of artistic creative concepts into colour and sound. More so than Hollywood.

    So if there was ever a good reason to standardise the gaming reviewing system to the 5 star rating system its now.

    I LOVE KOTAKUS reviewing system. Should I play this game? YES or NO.

    Anyway what Im trying to say is that after 2015, review scores mean jack. Everybody is playing everything.

    Need more coffee…

          I think PVP games should be reviewed a second time a few months down the line. Tat why you can safely judge the longevity of the game, how well the different modes are faring, how receptive the players are towards MT or DLC and how many people are still playing. Based on that Kotaku would probably have said no.

            PRE-ORDER culture dont care. They move on even if the game is good and leave behind a 2 year backlog. Imagine if movies were pre-order lol that would be interesting.

          • Hammersteyn

            December 21, 2015 at 09:13

            I feel a little ripped off to be honest. The story could have been written so much better. It felt lazy, like Disney was just cashing in.

          • Alien Emperor Trevor

            December 21, 2015 at 10:33

            I dunno. It could’ve benefited from a bit tighter story line overall because some stuff just happened very conveniently or was rushed – but I think that’s more down to trying to fit more stuff into the movie than the running time allowed for. It also had a proper ending, we don’t have to wait a year or two to see “the second half” of this movie.

            I liked that it establishes a very good platform to rebuild the SW universe – it was familiar, it paid homage to the past, but it also introduced very cool new characters. So I’m quite keen to see where it goes from here.

          • Hammersteyn

            December 21, 2015 at 10:36

            Still better than any prequel

          • Alien Emperor Trevor

            December 21, 2015 at 10:39

            Oh god yes. I’ve only watched those once, when they were released. Never felt any inclination to watch them again.

            On a bit of a tangent, I find that I’m getting exceedingly tired of this trend to make prequels to everything. I don’t want the history explained, I don’t want to know the mysterious backstory to a cool character. Sequels are always better. With prequels you always know the ending.

          • Hammersteyn

            December 21, 2015 at 10:41

            Just like the awful Hobbit movies

            Haven’t watched them. Never saw the point seeing as I didn’t enjoy the LOTR movies.

            Get an extra 5min director’s cut with your preorder!! I think I might just go #fullMoosa if movies went that way and everyone knows… You should never go #fullmoosa!

            Review it in an uncontrolled environment, where no one’s telling you how to play it properly, with random people. Then you’ll see how it works in practice.
