Except for last year (I think?), when fucking Untitled Goose Game won.

I mean, I honestly approve of how they select their nominees and winners. But yeah, being in bed with the entire industry really taints something that could otherwise be one of the most prestigious awards in the industry.

It was well-made, yes, but... What was the point of it all? Violence is terrible? People in terrible situations are made to do terrible things?

I can’t find the tweet right now, but someone pointed out that TGAs awarded Best Direction to one of the worst examples of crunch in the industry, over a developer with mandated vacation time and zero crunch.

Life is so much simpler with a microwave. Reheating food is so much faster, not to mention defrosting things!

Yeah, that’s what I’ve started telling randos who show up to complain about Kotaku’s progressive leanings or what have you—this probably isn’t the site for you. Which is fine! 

YO IO9 WE MADE IT, NOLAN’S REPS ASKED FOR A CORRECTION

I would honestly prefer that they err on the side of victims rather than erring on the side of caution

I can't imagine who approved any of this. It's SO unattractive.

I haven't seen someone seriously suggest people read the EULA in months! Great job!

Yep

I don’t think anyone is claiming it was malicious. The mind-blowing thing is that it seems to be intentional yet no one thought it might be a bad idea.

I really need to get in the habit of watching stuff on Prime. We’ve had it all this time, but because you couldn’t cast from the Android app I literally never used it, and now I keep forgetting that I can use it.

You can 100% add live TV. The process is far too convoluted, but they go over it in their help section.
