This isn't just at Metroid fans, but ERA in general. They just want you to tune in to watch this half baked award show all the way through. I wouldn't be surprised the people hinting behind the scenes info were also suckered by people close to the show to manufacture hype. This isn't some big show for top tier game reveals. It has nowhere near the hype or importance of E3.

I didn't make this thread to mock people who believed it. I was hyped too, but I was also a skeptic. I didn't tune in. All I did was follow the live blog at a site, and refresh ERA once in awhile. I was still able to see the trailers on Youtube in the game's official channel. I didn't miss anything.

Hopefully this debacle will convince you guys not to tune in next year. I recall bogus shit was leaked last year too, and that turned out to be a whole lot of nothing. There were people from Europe staying up well into the morning without sleep hoping for this bogus info to be shown. Was that really worth it?

What's the connection between a bogus rumor and a well-crafted awards show? It's not TGA's fault that the rumor popped up. Nor do you have any proof that they manufactured it, as you mention.

This ain't it, OP.

What I learned is I wasted a night of sleep to watch almost four hours of Epic Store/Fortnite infomercial.

Are you actually implying that people purposely put out rumors of Prime 4 being there, just to trick people in to watching the entirety of TGA?

You got some stuff to think through if going to conspiracy theory bullshit is your way of coping with minor disappointment.

The inconvenience over getting unnecessarily hyped over unreliable rumors should not incite severe mental anguish. I say that as someone who loathes the TGAs

Stayed up (Sweden) It was worth it. I kind of enjoy vga and didn't expect that much.

Altho I'm old so I was tried at work.

I enjoyed the show, and got a reveal better than any reveal Metroid could have given me.

The Dread Wolf Rises, my friends!

I liked the show and they announced the remake Crash Team Racing and Mortal Kombat 11, so it was better than E3 for me

The Red Dead Redemption II music made the night worth it, but I also enjoyed seeing some of the wins as well.

It was a good show.

TGA absolutely can and does have big announcements. Sekiro was (soft) announced at TGA.

It isn't their fault you chose to get excited about a fake rumor with nothing to back it up.

The show was fantastic.

You're too salty OP.

I don't think any of the leaks came from the organization, that's crazy talk

It was a fun show with a lot of fun announcements. Shouldn't believe every rumor ever and handle expectations accordingly. Besides, the big absentee is a game we know officially to be coming, so seeing it now or at E3 doesn't make that much of a difference. Now those who were waiting for a new Banjo or something are in a different scenario as they have no idea whether their dream will ever even start being developed.
