It's disappointing that Geoff continues to associate with trash people, but it is not surprising. It's hard for me to think of any big gaming personality that has pushed back against toxicity from content producers.

Shame to see Geoff offer invites to people like Boogie and consider him a friend. Will still watch to support Geoff but inviting people with such trash "opinions" that marginalise minority groups isn't a good look.

Maybe you shouldn't support Geoff or his show then considering he makes a habit of this? People like boogie and ninja will remain as centre stage figures in gaming for as long as the audience lets the inclusion and celebration of bigots slide year after year.

Why is Geoff calling Boogie a friend after what he's said?
I see a lot of hate for this guy around here but I've never really been clear on why, can someone give a quick rundown on the things he's said and done? As far as I can tell it's that he's a fence-sitter, and I can see where that would be problematic when talking about Milo/Gamergater types, but is there more to it than that? Genuinely curious.

That start-time is wrong by a half hour, isn't it?

https://www.pscp.tv/geoffkeighley/1YpKkVMPLXBxj?t=6m48s

Geoff says 6pm pacific for the show at the timestamp here with a half hour pre-show with some smaller announcements before that, which is why the live-stream is set to start at that time, but actual show is 6pm pacific. ElectricBlanketFire
Can someone double check that the time in my OP is accurate? I'm away from my computer for about an hour or so.

As long as Boogie ain't presenting anything or shows up on camera, I'll pretend he's not even there.

It is the public fault thou too.. But I don't care much about what Geoff thinks or does at this point.

Either way I won't be able to watch this because I gotta work tomorrow like every single normal European person.

The reveals and awards are nice but lets be honest, we're all here for the well meaning, but nearly universally terrible music performances, right?

The only announcement I want is CIVILIZATION VI FOR ANDROID PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN.

They should open the show with a Civ VI for Android announcement and then spend the entire show just playing Civ.

Just remember this. Everyone isn't getting what they want.



There are a lot of things to say about Geoff over the years, but his passion for games and putting on this show is fantastic. Good for him and sure we are going to be inundated with cringy ads, but so what? Celebrating the successes of the gaming industry and getting news about various upcoming projects is great.

It's purposeful at this point. Geoff clearly has no problem at all providing a platform for the alt right's "real g@m3r" champions. Shame on you Geoff Keighley, You obviously don't give a shit about oppressed groups who are harmed by these people.

Glad to see Boogie actually lose weight, but oof...I'm surprised dude still has any kind of following and that Geoff invited him to the show.

Is there going to be a 4K stream?

Hoping I don't have to use Mixer for that.
