The (New) Joy of Gaming Podcast - Episode Thirteen The Game Awards 2022 Preview - Predicting the Winners and World Premieres
On this episode of The (New) Joy of Gaming Podcast, we discuss gaming’s biggest night - The Game Awards 2022 - previewing each of the event’s major categories and nominees, and making predictions on who will win, who will lose, and what big surprises and upsets could be in store. We also talk about some of the notable snubs among this year’s categories, and lay odds on which big announcements and “World Premieres” we might see throughout the night. After all, Geoff Keighley did say that he “hasn’t felt this good about a show in a while” so expectations are high, and we’ll be back on our next episode to discuss everything that happens.
