In Las Vegas on December 5th, The Game Awards 2014 will make its world debut as a brand new video game awards ceremony dedicated to paying tribute to the latest and greatest releases of the year. Alongside the awards will be huge announcements from Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, along with game reveals from 3rd parties like Ubisoft, Konami, and Electronic Arts.
Geoff Keighley, creator and producer of The Game Awards, revealed in one of the nominee livestreams that Tetsuya Nomura would be in attendance at the show. Whether he is there to just enjoy the ceremoy or if he plans to reveal anything remains unknown, but you can watch Keighley mention Nomura in the video below (starts at 55:50):
The day after The Game Awards 2014, Sony's Playstation Experience begins! This massive community event weekend being hosted by Sony will feature hundred of unannounced and upcoming titles for next year from various developers around the world, and Square Enix's Shinji Hashimoto will be one of the guests in attendance for this event. Perhaps Tetsuya Nomura will also be at this event to reveal some new information on one of the many projects he is working on?

Trying not to get my hopes up for KH3 info but I have no self control.

(Personally I don't have any hype left in me. I'd sooner expect one of his current collaborations being revealed than KH3 or something haha)
It feels like E3 again for some reason lol. You can feel the energy.
Some of the insider info that has been flying around the net lately really is making people's hype levels for PSX huge. There is talk of a huge megaton announcement dropping but we shall have to wait and see...unless it leaks. I have no doubt Square are going to announce something pretty big regardless. Maybe not FFVIIR massive but close.
I'll try not to get my hopes too high for him being there. But regardless I hope he enjoys and I'm sure there will be announcements big enough to satisfy my hunger and mask my KH3 drought a bit longer... D=
These are my expectations lol, I had this from the other thread.
Final Fantasy XV Trailer with release window.
Final Fantasy XII/ Dragon Quest VIII HD Collection
Kingdom Hearts DDD Final Remix HD Collection
...
Final Fantasy XVI Announcement Trailer.
Let's GO!!
It's starting to be like Christmas...:)
I don't expect anything at the awards ceremony since... none of his games have even been nominated and it'd be random as hell to drop a bomb there, but I do expect something, big or small, at PSX. This seems just like Nomura actually intending to go to one thing and then being told he should go to the other just for the hell of it since he's still in the area.
If we're also speculating that it's that unannounced non-remake console game Matsuda mentioned in his latest interview, I believe they've already specified that it's not related to Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest.
Apparently the game SE is planning to reveal this month is a new IP altogether which will be exciting.
(All bets on The Last Remnant for PS4. Famitsu readers shall have their redemption!)
(I'm joking btw)
Yeah, I don't feel hype or anything nor do I expect anything. He's just going there. He's been going to more events over the past couple of years, and 2.5 is just now being released. Jump Festa's around the corner, if he's announcing anything KH related it'll be there.
About the videogame awards, this isn't the exact same one as the Spike TV Videogame Awards, right?

So you're saying this won't be the same Spike's Videogame Awards that has been going for years? Just want to make sure I did read that Geoff wanted to make a proper professional show. The nominees have always been horrendous and it just felt insulting to actual gamers.
I hope he has something to say...but who knows. :biggrin:

Yes, I am saying exactly that. Geoff has finally made a show worth watching, I'd say. No Joel McHale being an asshole, no Tyler the Creator making fun of the show in his weird joking way, and weird GTAV promotion with rap performances in downtown LA haha
(I love Tyler the Creator but he knew he was clowinin' the second he accepted the performance deal)

And please, no Samuel L Jackson hosting the show hehe.
I looked through the nominees and sometimes it always looks like they're jobbing against Nintendo some how. Why would they put Bayonetta 2 over Smash Bros for Game of the Year...seriously!

Well, the Wii U version had just released in NA/EU when the nominees were being listed...and SSB is fun on the 3DS but I don't think it is exactly qualified for GOTY. Just my opinion...
I completely forgot Samuel L Jackson hosted the VGAs xD That was an interesting year.
Just imagine, every event from now on people will be anticipating KH3! It's like a carbonated bottle of hype, being shaken! :P
Square is due to announce a brand new IP in December, so it'll either be at PSX or Jump Festa. Seems more likely for PSX. Anything KH related would more likely occur at Jump Festa. Think about it. With the exception of the KH3 announcement, literally every other KH announcement has been Japan first, West second. I expect no different for a KH3D Remaster or any KH3 news.
However, I do find it suspicious that both Square AND Disney are attending the PSX. Unless it's just a coincidence that they're both showing off their own separate games at different booths. But still...
As for the Game Awards, doesn't seem like an announcement type of place to me. As we've seen from Nomura's Comic Con visits, not literally everywhere he goes means something will be announced there.
I'm ready.
I'm ready.
That's thread right there. There's the Forteller that everyone is talking about!

It's not suspicious at all.
Disney has stuff like Disney Infinity and Square has Final Fantasy, Life is Strange, Just Cause 3, [strike]a proper sequel to Sleeping Dogs[/strike].
I'm ready.
That's fantastic! Did you make this?

Haha I wish. I'm an active member on Neogaf and on the KH community thread and someone made it there. Pretty amazing right?

KH3D was announced at E3 2010. That's two out of...whatever.

Disney Interactive always has games to show off. Disney Infinity related, possibly, or something brand new since they have to keep the revenue train going and they almost always have nothing to do with anything SE has.

Well...his Comic Con visits did have "announcements", just they weren't game announcements. One was the Batman PAK for DC Comics and the other was the Hatsune Miku collaboration.
Him being at TGA likely means nothing, but this IS a game event which I think makes this a bit different from SDCC or NYCC. Nomura rarely goes anywhere if he doesn't have a purpose for it or isn't forced into it.
VG Cats guy made it

I doubt Nomura will go just to clap and have fun, he is a busy man.

It also didn't get nominated for best soundtrack. Nor did Mario Kart 8 or Tropical Freeze.
yeah something going down at the TGA because Normura wouldn't attend these kind of events unless he was force to or he got news to annouce but i am skeptical of course so will see
If anything KH3 related is getting announced, I just want them to confirm that it will have multiple scenarios. I really don't want KH3 to fall into the land KH2 did where Sora and co. goofed off for most of the game while important stuff mostly happened off-screen.
I also want my Command Deck back. Just give me these two things for the holidays, SE.
today the tga how many people guess we get news today?
O we for sure as a gaming community are getting some solid news tonight, to which level though we'll have to see. Nomura will be there but unsure if we'll see anything KH related, though I hope he gets some good fan love.
Street fighter V got leaked this morning already so there's some news!
I don't expect Nomura to announce anything, but Square Enix should have something there. Deus Ex would be cool. Crystal Dynamics just better not show Rise of the Tomb Raider.

The only thing that could make that a non bitter viewing is if it ending with an "Available on all platforms at the same time" graphic. Though sadly that probably won't be happening...
surprise me, hazama
you came to america for a reason

(I wish it had been TKH...)
i want to believe in dkh
since they did say the secret announcement isn't related to FF or DQ
(though it's more likely to be deus ex)

DKH + TKH year of Hazama #believe
So wait...I'm not gonna be watching. Has anything really great happened yet? I'm not sure what to look for, exactly.

It's been over for about 20 minutes.
It was essentially Nintendo Experience + some Western stuff to fill in the blanks.
He was just in the audience, no doubt to support his friend Hideo Kojima with the announcement of Metal Gear Solid Online.

Aaah. That sounds...pretty anticlimactic, actually.

It really was sadly. The highlights for me were really Metal Gear Online and Zelda. Everyone was expecting the big Fallout 4 =p, myself included.
I thought King's Quest was a great surprise. The trailer sold me on it because it looks so fun.
