Yep, it was terrible. I'd have rather seen Jason Rubin, Kaz Harai, Ted Price, Miyamoto, etc. handing out awards than some hip hop gangstas. The guys at Penny Arcade did a write up since they were actually at the show, saying that the process begun by the PS1 is now complete, as video games have gone totally mainstream, much to the detriment of their original fans. Still, we have the Indie scene, as does Hollywood when you want a diversion from the shitastic sequel-mania and canned idea factory. Hopefully companies like Blizzard and Perfect-Dark-era Rare will keep standards and innovation high priorities.
