Triple I as in triple Indie? That’s cute as hell, I love it. I’m all for III over AAA.
Yeah, it took me a moment to get it, but then I was like “oh, neat! That’s very clever”
Hopefully this showcase is successful enough to become a tradition. It would be nice to have an indie-focused showcase that doesn’t have to juggle their time between the games, advertisements, and sponsors.
At this point, it would be cool to have a gaming event at all that doesn’t invite random Hollywood celebrities instead of actual game developers
“OMG, those nerds have had 20 full seconds to talk? WRAP IT UP”
(for those who don’t know Game Awards really did this. The few acceptance speeches that were there were very short, and winners were all told to “WRAP IT UP” via teleprompter and cut with music. 11 minutes of them talking in total, for a 3-hour-long show)
Fuck yeah, cut the corpos out of the hobby space.
As a budding game developer, watching mobile games dominate all the game awards is so incredibly frustrating.
My first game award, I watched those Farmville motherfuckers take award after award, while amazing indie games are given lip service but not the trophy.
I don’t know what’s going on with this headline; it’s not an awards show, just a showcase. Although I understand how events like The Game Awards blur the line between the two.
Makes me feel like Game News Season (or whatever we’re calling it post-E3) is coming up quick.
Looking forward to it!
They shoulda been really cheeky and called it the quadruple-I game awards. Missed opportunity.
okay, that is awesome
You love to see it.
I’ll watch it
