Natsu Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 oh well shit happens..... to quote a poster from AN Well, lets be fair here, E3 has been fun since like 1998. And with all of the money going into pointless hardware gimmicks(PS3) they may as well just stop. At least we still have TGS and thats what matters most. Link to comment
The Lone Magician Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 *clears throat* *takes deep breath* "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Link to comment
Akito Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Meh, doesn't bother me at all. Video game forums are unbrowsable during E3 since it's all nothing but bitching and arguing from people who can't agree on which console had the better games. Maybe things won't get so out of hand now. Link to comment
Nega-Brent Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Well there goes G4's ratings for next year. Link to comment
ROCKSTEADY Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 that makes me a sad panda. They are right though, i do not see how a huge booth costing 100's of thousands of dollars would make people buy a game. Its to bad though, its kinda cool to just see all the lights and crazy shit thats going on. Link to comment
Ceraziefish Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I don't really care either way. E3 was sort of a fun little thing but really had no direct impact on me. It was kind of fun, though. I'm sure we all remember how everyone freaked out on AN when Twilight Princess was announced. Link to comment
Alundra Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I like the idea of E3 being concentrated into a smaller event that is focused more on the developers than the show they put on for everyone with expensive booths. Now we can get back to our roots and not worry about what kind of show we have to put on the impress the masses, but here's betting EA is pretty pissed that they can't use smoke and mirriors to make their games look good anymore.

Siendra Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Fuck it. Just stick to the major conferences and integrate the smaller 3rd parties into each of the three large ones. I don't pay any attention to E3 itself anymore. Link to comment

darkon Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Well there goes G4's ratings for next year. And there goes their coverage of games. Link to comment
Gundampilotspaz Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Well there goes G4's ratings for next year. Wait... people WATCHED that? Anyway, they were talking about it on TWIT, and said that EA spent something like 15 million on their display. So the big companies just said.. " FUCK YOU" However, they also believe that since this is going to be cut down and restricted, the programmers convention (I forget the name) will grow to become the new E3. Link to comment

Gundampilotspaz Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 GDC. Game Developers Conference. That would be it, yes. And it might be a BETTER show if the developers are in change and not marketing jackoffs who KNOW NOTHING. RIDGE RACER! Link to comment
