Major Nelson: No TV Talk At E3. S'all about the games.
- Thread starter Miles Quaritch
- Start date
With COD at the reveal just two weeks ago I don't think they need to show it, as well as the sports games.
If there is no COD, no sports games and no TV talk then it really does free up a lot of time for games.
But then I do think they'll touch on Xbox live (as they should). If people here bitch about that then ... they're morons.

Well 15 of them will be (disregarding the format).
I'm glad this can bring together everyone from around the world and not just create an echo chamber within a very small minority of people who consume video games.
I don't expect all of that at E3 (doubting an Insomniac game already, as well as Halo), but yeah, I agree with your sentiment. XBO and PS4 seem like they will both have way better launch lineups than the 360 and PS3.

Everything from Larry Hyrbs mouth is threadworthy at the moment to some people.
We do know they're gonna put on a show, they've said it from day one. Seems these threads are purely to remind people.

Hopefully it's a great conference but it's not going to be 90 minutes of games.
They will show the new UI. The new XBL. They will talk about some 360 stuff - probably the 99 dollar 360?
I'm just don't expect talk about the interactivity with the TV. Everything else is fine. So, I want a well rounded presentation. Not just games. I want to see everything about XBO (but interactivity with the tv)

We haven't seen live gameplay from the game. Just a trailer and a behind-the-scenes. I can bet that there's going to be a COD demo. It would be great, in case it is, to just open the presser with it and get that rock out of our shoes.

The bolded are a sure bet.

So they're going to go from the reveal, highlighting their new system as a central media hub for all your TV needs, to not talking about it at all? I call bullshit.
Yeah this sounds about right. I did see an interview about E3 being where they will discuss both the 360s future and the new added value of XBL.
And ditto on the COD stuff. No need for another demo please.

They have said exactly that.
Additional media functionality can be discussed/shown outside of the presentation.
Haven't seen in anywhere but GAF.
Can't wait!

New Fable may be saved for Gamescom, as I expect Osaka's new IP and possibly LO2 will be left for TGS.
90 minutes isn't long enough for the first party games alone, never mind the third party exclusives they'll have.
Someone get Rosti in here with a Bingo board stat.
They will talk about it for sure, just not an hour.
Welcome to gaf?
It became popular on YouTube not GAF. So obviously not just a GAF thing...

Seen it pretty much everywhere that talks about the Xbone, it's a pretty popular vid.
The whole TV TV SPORTS TV thing started on Youtube. Gaf just took it from there. That is where it really is out of hand
COD has already been confirmed...it'll be another gameplay segment like previous e3s.

Have you been anywhere else than gaf?. The video is really big on youtube and I a lot podcasts have mentioned it. In fact its got more views than the actual reveal video on youtube so its clearly not a GAF thing.
It's on Twitter though! We're taking this to the streets! #PS4noDRM2013 #occupygamestop

I doubt moaning changed anything, since all of that was planned long before May 21st... they won't pull those games out of nowhere between the reveal and E3.

Final Fantasy XV, Last Guardian, and Kingdom Hearts III confirmed for Sony.

We'll see.
Wherre have you people been the last couple Microsoft E3 conferences? They've been utterly shittastic. I don't see how a new console is going to necessarily change their focus back towards the core.
Bring it on! I'm ready to be pleased!

Keep these twitter quotes handy that way then they go off on TV tangents through out the conference we can say "So... yeah... about that..."
Fake Kaz wins again. Whoever is writing for him is doing an awesome job.

I'd give about a 99.9% chance of CoD showing up at the event, probably a live demo.
damn you are fast... was just going to post that..

Last year was clearly an entirely different sort of circumstances.
Reading some of these posts, GAF gotta GAF on Microsoft as usual. I swear, I feel as if they could announce Dark Souls 2, a new Platinum IP, and Half Life 3 all as exclusives for X1, and people will still find a way to complain.

I really hope their presser gives me a reason to buy the system. Given their messaging at the reveal I still can't help but feel at least slightly skeptical.
