* Prior to the ceremony, ''Kotaku''[='=]s Alyssa Mercante called out [[https://kotaku.com/game-awards-2022-fashion-geoff-keighley-hideo-kojima-1849864018 the poor fashion]] that attendees wore at previous ceremonies. Her article led to several attendees start taking their looks seriously, [[https://kotaku.com/game-awards-2022-best-fashion-fits-drip-geoff-keighley-1849875118 improving the show's fashion sense]] in the process.
* Creator/ChristopherJudge gave an emotional eight-minute long speech for his Best Performance win, which was the first award given on-stage that night.
* Musician Pedro Eustache's very enthusiastic musical performance during the Game of the Year medley, which saw him play multiple wind instruments throughout, became {{memetic|Mutation}}, with online viewers nicknaming him "Flute Guy".
* The end of the ceremony became infamous when a 15-year-old prankster named Matan Even snuck onto the stage with the [=FromSoftware=] crew when they won the Game of the Year award, then after ''Elden Ring'' director Hidetaka Miyazaki gave his speech and the walk-off music began playing, Even made a brief yet bizarre speech saying, "I want to thank everybody and say I think I want to nominate this award to my Reformed Orthodox rabbi UsefulNotes/BillClinton."[[note]]In case you're wondering, Reform and Orthodox are separate denominations of UsefulNotes/{{Judaism}}, and Clinton himself is a Baptist, not Jewish.[[/note]] Although it happened at the end of the ceremony and Even was escorted by security, the interruption overshadowed the show itself.
