What? Did Destiny just win a loving award? Was there any lead up to that at all?
That was hilarious "hey Bungie, you guys won something, here's an award!"

 Pewdiepie didn't win so this award is validated.

Just a thought, but if you sign up with EA are you really an 'indie dev' any more? Seems to me you're EA now.
EA becomes slavedriver until they have no more use for you.

Can't wait for this game to turn out to be overhyped and broken at release just like every other big title.
There is no game over the last two years that has come close to the hype that Star Citizen's been getting.

The only thing I can say in his defense, is that that's been the mantra for doing an award show for Geoff for over a decade now, so devs should know by now what they're getting into when they agree to come to these things. The awards are secondary or even lower to the premiers, music acts and face-time for any popular personalities that show up, be they developer or celebrity.
Isn't that what Geoff was trying to avoid when he made these awards?

I think what he was trying to avoid in making these awards is "being out of a job."
Yeah most likely, I just remember the first articles about these was that they'd be all about the games.

The 60fps thing I at least get but I've seen him bitch about games capping at 120 fps because he has a 144hz monitor or whatever. That takes the whole ~Master Race~ bullshit to a new level.
It's PC "master racers", literally they'll bitch about everything if they can't get what they want. Cry when games don't use SLI, not Xbox 360 controller compatible, whine about console priority development when they max out a game and it's not taxing their system, claim the game is unoptimized if their midrange GTX 750 can't run it at 60fps on ultra, and on and on.

Also is it true that Total Biscuit can't build a PC? My cousin built his first one last Christmas and he was only 11 back then.
