A couple weeks ago I shot a segment for the Spike VGA nomination special for GameTrailers TV and it is airing tonight (on Spike, midnight EST)! So, watch it! And also watch the actual VGAs on Sunday night. I am going to be there and will try my darndest to get on camera to promote Destructoid as much as possible. Who is that strange man with his head up Eliza Dushku’s dress yelling “Also, cocks!” and “amazing!”? Oh, it’s Chad!
As for how I did on tonight’s show? Er, I am a little nervous. The special was shot Best Week Ever style, with a bunch of different videogame industry people giving their opinions on the VGA nominees for Game of the Year. I went into the taping raring to go and ready to blow the crew away with my hilarious takes on everything. The only problem? NOTHING I SAID WAS HILARIOUS! Uh-oh. I blame it on nerves. And the fact that I had no pants on.
But you can watch the above compilation of deleted scenes from tonight’s show to get you excited about the main event. And, yes, I said the dog from Fable II is “intense.” God, I am such a tool.
Chad Concelmo is Destructoid's features editor. He loves hanging out with awesome people. That's why Destructoid makes him so happy, since it is full of THE MOST AWESOME PEOPLE OF ALL TIME! Also, dolphins.

Chad maybe you should find a way to sneak a toke before you go on tv, man, so you're not so nervous, man.
Clearly Marcus Beer knew how to prepare! He got some sour cream and onion chips with some dip, man, some beef jerky, some peanut butter. Get some Häagen-Dazs ice cream bars, a whole lot, make sure chocolate, gotta have chocolate, man. Some popcorn, red popcorn, graham crackers, graham crackers with marshmallows, the little marshmallows and little chocolate bars and we can make s'mores, man. Also, celery, grape jelly, Cap'n Crunch with the little Crunch berries, pizzas. We need two big pizzas, man, everything on 'em, with water, whole lotta water.......and Funyuns!
don't be nervous chad....you were the funniest one hands down in that entire little clip show. Which means they probably cut you from the main show because of an awesome overload.

Guys eating cookies.
between that and Chad's love of everything intense. I gotta say that was more intense than anything the year in gaming had to offer.
Also, Intense.
