He's not wrong, it was a clusterfuck.
Main show on Thursday, followed by Devolver right after it. Then Friday and Saturday of small stuff. Sunday Xbox showcase followed by PC Gaming show after it. Monday had Capcom and it was... not good.
If this is supposed to be E3s replacement... well it was a poor showing.
I think one thing I liked is that the Xbox showcase only showed actual gameplay and games being released within 12 months. I hope they keep that going forward. Better than seeing a trailer for game 3 years away. Keep those trailers for TGA or Gamescom. Lol

Sorry for double post, but holy shit I agree.
ESPECIALLY the remakes/remasters part.
We had TLOU, then TLOU Remastered, TLOU2, TLOU Remake. I'm fed of remakes and remasters.
It's different if you want to reboot the games, but stop with the remakes.

E3 died in 2019, Geoff and MS can't make up for it with Sony and Nintendo and so many other publisher doing their small time events on their own.

The only ones that make sense are examples like RE 2 or FF VII, because they look like brand new games

Hopefully one day that team can have a better name. Even just CBU3 works.
Geoff fumbled the ball and it was such an easy goal with no opposing team in sight. He still needs to find the right balance with his summer showing and it's very odd, because his winter showing(the game awards) does way better in terms of content and having fresh new video games to show off. Judging his two shows by their own merits he wasn't even up to par with himself. SGF was a C+ showing for me this year in comparison to the B grade I gave The Game Awards.
I saw some really great content(including sizeable slices of gameplay of upcoming games) that he could have grabbed for his showing, but he let outlets like IGN, Future Games Show, and Guerilla collective scoop them up instead. The first show of E3 week/SG Fest has to be the biggest. Why didn't he take the Gungrave gameplay showing? Or the Evil West gameplay showcase? Or the Half Life Alyx Levitation trailer? It's a bit baffling. There was some good content out there but he left people to search for it instead.
I saw a very polished and fun looking 3d indie game called Protodroid Delta that took inspiration from Megaman X and Mega Man Legends but added nice melee action combat on top of that formula, and no one here even knows about it. Know why? Because it was saddled onto a small time showcase, that was essentially unannounced on most big outlets, and put out during two other big showcases. Now the game has no choice but to rely on word of mouth for sales.
I felt bad for the dev because the guy had his one chance buried by everything else, due to horrible scheduling.

He does a good job pointing out the absurdity of the industry.

I always appreciate a Dunkey video.
It is weird how they always wheel Kojima out for these things. Microsoft is hilarious with their pathetic attempts to win over fans of Japanese companies.

Yeah, he definitely fumbled. He should've made the main show LONGER and more intense, but nope. The shows were just too spread out to keep me interested. Hell, I almost forgot about the PC Gaming Show. I agree though that some games were just thrown in-between shows and were like cannon fodder that no one will remember, which is just extremely sad. Your example I didn't even know about, I googled it and it looks pretty fun.
We do have the Xbox ID at Xbox showcase on the 21st? I think. So hopefully the ones that were buried at SGF get some nice loving there.
You know, I agree with that, definitely early remakes. It's obvious WHY they're doing a TLOU1 Remake, but it's just so shitty. TLOU1 will have 3 (THREE) DIFFERENT VERSIONS. I mean you can't make that shit up.
Yeah, I REALLY loved the RE1, 2 and 3 remakes. Those were amazing. Literally night and day changes. FFVII too, completely different.
I went in that "other" place and they had a thread where someone said "What do you think about a game adaptation of the TLOU TV Show".
So they want ANOTHER version of TLOU... You just can't make this shit up. Lol

Seriously, its pretty bad. Naughty
Dog could learn a thing or two from Insomniac. ND are litterally milking one franchise and the only 2 games from said franchise.
Are they even working on anything NOT TLOU? Even pre-production?
So they have TLOU Frontiers? Which is their version of a live service, you guessed it, TLOU game. What's crazy is that Frontiers was supposed to come out with TLOU2 or just after it after some time, but then they decided to make it a standalone game because why not charge consumers instead of giving multiplayer for free.
They apparently have another IP in the making but honestly, I won't be surprised if we see a TLOU1+2 Remake which includes Frontiers and then they sell THAT as a collection and release it on PC so they can milk even MORE money.
But yeah, like you said, only 2 games in the franchise and the 1st game already has 3 different versions. It's quite sad.

They are.....the remake was made when it was in pre-production when they didn't have work for the extended team while they worked on new game concepts.
This is widely known from reports.

This E3 was so bad we get a Dunkey video instead of a Crowbcat one.
ND on Ps1: New IP
ND on Ps2: New IP
ND on Ps3: 2 new IPs

This stopped being true once people found out about celebrities playing games like breath of the wild and fornite and, before even that, once e-sports champions started being treated as huge as K-pop stars in other countries. We're well past the point of hip.

This seems like a deliberate bait video since he's normally more nuanced and less cynical, and even when he's cynical there's a lot more depth and charm to it.
