Just to put me in context, did nobody really expect or predict TP to be announced at that event? I guess surprises like that could only happen in a pre-social-media world...
Actually it kinda was leaked few hours before on the IGN forums by Cassamassima with his infamous "Hot or not" thread lol.
Gabe Newell announcing Portal 2 for PS3.

Yeah, when everyone is laughing at the old G-Man model before gasping as they show the new one.
Was waiting for this one. Cheering and yelling are all well and good, but Gaijin 4koma is the only E3 reaction to ever reach classic meme status.
Not as good as Zelda, but Halo 2 had a good reaction from the crowd as well especially when Master Chief hijacks the ghost (6:50 mark).

this by the longest margin.
I still get goosebumps, so great.

Twilight Princess is emperically the correct response, but watching the Zelda orchestra in 2011 with reactions from the audience did kind of make me a bit teary eyed. Even more so when I saw the performance in person.

Absolutely. I sighed when I heard him say it, but hearing the audible boo from the audience threw me into a fit of laughter. Then I just felt bad for him. Talk about not knowing your audience. AT&T has great coverage in a lot of the US, but LA and SF are not places on that list.

First post wins.
This will never be topped. I was lucky enough to be there and had been given a little primer regarding the trailer so I knew what it was immediately before most of the crowd was fully clued in. I was going nuts!
Any orchestra performance where an (always american) crowd is yelling and cheering is by definition HORRIBLE.
Hahaha, seriously. That trailer was hype with "OMG THAT'S BEING DONE ON PS3?"
Then "Online."
"Oh." I think that was the collective reaction the world over.

To clarify, the live performance had a much more respectful audience, but I think it's unfair to judge the E3 attendees too harshly on this. They didn't exactly know they'd be watching an orchestra going into that particular press conference. In that case, I felt the cheers added a lot of excitement to it, but I do agree that it would've been inapproapreate during the real performance (which wasn't my experience at all).
Agreed. I've never seen people lose it like they did during that reveal.
Don't think a trailer or demo has impressed me as much as the first showing of MGS2 in 2000:

Watching that video still gives me chills.
I know I've seen a video where you can see someone crying. But like you I can only find the posted one with the screaming.

Yes because it's hilarious, tragic and very sad all rolled up into one big ball. A bunch of guys yelling at a Zelda game is none of it. Maybe a bit sad.
( EDIT: I know it isn't actually E3 but I think it can be allowed considering what the event is, when it took place etc. )
I know this wasn't E3, but I thought this was the best crowd reaction on a game reveal ever:
A thousand crazy Koreans

Definitely Twilight Princess and SSBB
My favorite negative reaction has to be FFXIV, it went from cheers to the now famous, "Online? What the Hell?"
