XBOX VS PLAYSTATION GET HYPE

So, courtesy of the Lightning Returns thread, we have our first piece of E3 signage for this year.

The Hotel Figueroa is, judging by previous years, going to start getting painted any day now, and the conferences start in just a week and a half, so all the big adverts are going to start popping up really soon. Makes sense to have a thread that they can be put in. NeoGAF Christmas starts now!
EDIT 1: Dark Souls II signage.

Just saw it on a banner while driving past the convention center:

Wario RT this a few mins ago:

Wow someone beat Wario64? That's a first.

With construction work going on at the LACC, the piece of concrete the bear occupied may be lost or painted over. Perhaps some L.A. gaffer can try to find out if he's still there.

You're getting slow, old man.


Bomba.

 

[Wario64]

lol, no one cares about Lightning Returns though.


Anyway, this is what the hotel is currently I think. Wouldn't they want this movie advertised for a bit longer though?

Posters and signages are boring

It's all about crates, barrels and boxes

Not to mention there's a bomb already there.

I love love love this time of year

E3 hype gogogo

 

[javac]

So no gaming related paintings on the hotel this time around? Seriously this would be the best opportunity to slap each of the big 3 on each building.

 

[ido]

Painted on??

Color me goddamn impressed. Wowzers.

 

[PshycoNinja]

Wasn't there also A Realm Reborn: FFXIV banners on street lights too?

 

[Dark_AnNiaLatOr]

Perfect Timing! Was just thinking about this after seeing the Dark Souls II signage. Makes E3 feel so close.

 

[I-hate-u]

The Nintendo thread 2 years ago was flippin hilarious. I am looking forward to the signage you guys find.

 

[Axonometri]

YES!! was waiting for this thread to start! These are my favorite...

 

[Mushroomer25]

I have no idea why I love these threads so much. But they just fill me with a joy that cannot be properly expressed through words.

 

[Dark_AnNiaLatOr]

That one was one to remember. In fact, that is the one I do remember, because of the bomb dropping gifs and whatnot. Also, the speculation was awesome. I hope we get some good pictures again.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Can't wait until the big banners start popping up.

I'm expecting Sony to go with a silhouette of the PS4, which will then be painted over once it's fully revealed.

I could see that actually. Sony marketing team, since been reworked, is doing a great job. Less is more, even.

 

[Axonometri]

Is there no one seeing anything new around the convention center?

 

[CrisKre]

Went by today. Nothing to see yet.

For those who don't know, the Figueroa Hotel ad is the big 3 panel ad a few blocks away from the LACC.

Yea... They must of payed over others to secure that triptych right through E3. It is fairly new is it not? If memory serves correct, it is not the first time though.

 

[Axonometri]

What's a guy gotta do to get some signage up in here? Setup/Build shots?

Honey! Pack the kids and throw your crap in the trunk... we are going to the L.A. Convention Center!

Well, with thanks to Wario64's Twitter, we have lobby shots and setup shots; no specific games as of yet, but the wheels are in motion.

We also have Capcom's booth.

A 360-shot of the Convention Centre, as of yesterday. http://360.io/4m3rvN

 

[Kagari]

The hotel spot is really expensive I heard. Close to 1m... I'm not sure many companies want to drop that much on such a limited ad.

Thanks man! Couple of things I had not seen yet in your reply. Maybe this will get some others motivated on posting up fresh stuff.
