Keighley seems more and more douchey every day. It's annoying how all of the gaming journalists and personalities have appointed him "king of the gamers" despite how his shows actually are. TGA is fine but is still too long, too full of ads, and you can see how his own ego gets in the way with celebrity appearances and such.

Last year's Summer Games Fest sucked and all I remember is how it had zero cool reveals, was way too long, and The Calisto Protocol's boss used his segment to kiss Geoff's ass. He also had Gamescom last year and it was really bad. I hope he does a good job with his events but I think we're missing out big time by losing E3.

It's worth remembering that he's 100% the product of nepotism with his extremely wealthy father pulling strings to get Geoff opportunities within the industry,

I think I speak for many when I say that we only watch the game awards for trailers. I guess it’s cool to see a game you liked win an award, but they don’t really mean anything, and tons of games go unnoticed anyways. No one cares about the rock having a trailer for black Adam at summer games fest, and the celebrities at the game awards have somehow gotten worse when they talk.

TGA is just kinda silly. How can you have a game of the year award that doesn’t include December releases like Forza Horizon 5 a few years ago and it was GOTY??

He's made his entire career by exploiting the game industry. This is just yet another predatory move on his part to get more ad revenue.
