One of the more memorable moments in the 2022 Game Awards came courtesy of a kid who crashed FromSoftware's acceptance of the Game of the Year award for Elden Ring. Don't expect something similar to happen in 2023, though, as TGA founder and host Geoff Keighley said during a recent Q&A livestream that «we definitely have plans» for better security at this year's event. Last year's stage-crasher was a bizarre prankster—he thanked his «Reformed Orthodox rabbi Bill Clinton» for the win—but ultimately harmless. A similar disturbance interrupted Gamescom Opening Night Live in August when two attendees rushed the stage and spoke into Keighley's microphone «Bill Clinton wants to play GTA 6,» an apparent nod to the Game Awards stage-crasher. But the ease with which these people infiltrated two major gaming events laid bare the fact that someone who isn't harmless could do the same thing. Sadly in this day and age, that's something organizers of public events like The Game Awards have to bear in mind. «Yeah, we are,» Keighley said when asked if security would be beefed up this year to prevent stage crashers. «We don't want to talk about that stuff too publicly, just because it's security and we definitely have plans, and we're trying to do all we can to keep me safe, but also everyone watching the show, in the audience, participating in the show and everything. »So yeah, it's something we're certainly thinking about. We appreciate the concern. Believe me, that's something that's top of mind for us, but we also want to put on a great show that celebrates these games, and celebrates our love for videogames. So that's an important thing to keep in mind as well. But I appreciate the concern around that."

I legitimately feel bad for anyone who bought a Steam Deck right before Valve’s surprise reveal of the new and improved OLED model. The announcement came out of nowhere and the Steam Deck OLED is a better version of the LCD original, at roughly the same price point. So, I understand why the r/SteamDeck forum was immediately flooded with new owners lamenting their life choices. To these people, and to anyone with the debut hardware, I want to make it perfectly clear: The Steam Deck LCD is one of the best handheld PCs on the market.
