Forums - Gaming - VGA interview: Geoff Keighley being an a**



Around the Network

If i was Geoff Keighley i would have acted the same way to this guy. They obviously have had bad history at some point before. But this Angry Joe is a poor interviewer at best. I have seen alot more journalist interview Geoff and give/get alot more respect. For god sakes, Hip Hop Gamer even had good interviews with Geoff Keighley. However it was pretty bad on Geoff's part not knowing about FF 14 mmo, unless he got it confused with the PS3 version.

All in all, seems like he's just whining cause Geoff didn't give him much of a chance to rip on him or the show in which he probably knew Joe was going to try it for publicity.

 



lol this was actually intertaining



I don't like either of them actually.



Whoa... Angry Joe just got pwned by a man wearing a bowtie...

agry joe is an angry dick... What a horrible interview.

I'm with Geoff on this one, even if the VGA's suck really bad.



And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

Man I really enjoyed that, I really agree with him on everything, and the issue with Geoff is the same thing wrong with most of gaming publications/journalists and has been a problem for a while.

You question their credibility, you care about wanting things to be better, and they want to avoid it.  Become vocal to some IGN editors and they'll just shrug you off, you say how Game Informers review standards are bad (a letter they posted in the magazine) and they essentially troll and call you stupid, and it's really the industry as a whole liking how things are going, publishers give them money for ads at the price of the publications integrity, even giving half a thought to upping standards is sending a message to publishers that it's threating the relationship they have, which is you hype a game, review it reasonably well and you get good money.  

Upping standards and being vocal about it for any big publication is threating the fragile balance the industry has right now.  Like Angry Joe talked about they're purposely marketing to the lowest common denominator, the industry as a whole is doing this, the people that made gaming their hobby, apart of their lives, the guys that love the thrill of a new game, they obviously see these things happening, they're vocal but they're a minority compared to the lowest common denominator and always have been, so as long as this marketing is working (for the most part it's actually crumbling) on that group there's little hope for standards to increase across the board.

Seeing that many people are defending geoff here, I thought maybe I should back up angry joe a little bit. So overall his interview might have actually been good but it was rushed and I guess joe had no idea what he was doing in that short amount of time. He was unprofessional because wll the setting for the interview was unprofessional. About theMMo question- Joe actually had a good question but he just executed it very poorly. FF14 is proabbly the worst MMO of all time and he is asking it to be game of the year? Then again Geoff doesn't even know that FF14 came out this year. Im still awe that Starcraft 2 wasn't nominated for game of the year. Most of the awards given out were B.S. and the best part of the show was obviously the announcements. So in conclusion it was a douche trying to interview another douche but the douche failed and the other douche got the last laugh?



I give a f*ck about Dane Cook :(
