Forums - Gaming - The nominations for videogames BAFTAs 2011

sapphi_snake on 18 February 2011

Red Dead Redemption wasn't submitted, that's why it wasn't nominated, in case anyone's wondering.

I saw him talking about it on BBC News this morning. He is infinitely awesome

However, sadly, he discounts the Wii and Nintendo as a "proper" gaming company, which is sad, really. He's pretty cool otherwise...

Well, he's a comedian so maybe he was joking?

He's also ridiculously intelligent and has a degree in maths and theoretical physics, so maybe he's right? Ninty not a proper gaming company confirmed!!!! lol

Also, watch this :P

That's pretty much what I meant. 

Gaming isn't what he depicts it, "which one isn't croutch!" 

Gaming is like where you'l happily re=play the same area over and over and over again to get to the end, to get it perfectly, because it's fun, but because it's hard. 

Sadly, not enough modern games stick to this ideal

It's just comedy. It's funny because I've watched my girlfriend doing similar things when she plays a lot of core games.

Here's hoping Galaxy 2 wins best game!

Agreed...

Also, I may start a thread about the unsung heroes as well if this thread is anything to go by, we choose what games deserved the attention and the awards, but didn't get them...



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I know, and it was great. Dunno if anyone saw his bit on the news yesterday, but here it is:
