Okay, I hope that there is a team that just doesn't take the field until after the anthem is over. Just one sideline is the owner standing there, alone.

It's going to be pretty tense for the people onstage during the Destiny 2 Fall expansion trailer. Considering that the current sandbox guy is actually apologizing for the state of the game on Twitter, we might actually get a public apology.

Devolver digitals press conference was awesome but I don't think they can repeat it as the jokes done.

I think there will be some good announcements they better have frigging cyberpunk gameplay.

Apart from that I really hope there are more gently caress ups, I also hope there aint too many battle royal games

We're probably getting Ori 2 footage this year at Microsoft's conference so they can do whatever they want IMO


Man the national anthem sucks rear end. I could at least understand all this nonsense if the song was good.

All this dumb anthem stuff reminds me of when I went to Jury Duty a few years ago. Before they started the process of calling people up for whatever, they had everyone stand up and do the pledge of allegiance, like it was in elementary school. And I was weirded out by A) how many people actually stood up (I may have been the only one who kept sitting) and B) how loving creepy it sounded, with everyone saying the allegiance in sync, all in the same tired monotone voice cause it was like 8 or 9 in the morning.

Clamp your gob, you loving moron! No matter what, it will be a nice break from the canned Blazer and Blue Jeans Sales Pitch we see from everyone.

Also, I could only wish there wouldn't be so many battle royal games, but we all know deep down, if pubg was a year or two earlier, we would have Kinectimals Battle Royal by now. Because nothing that makes that kind of silly money isn't going to be run into the ground by everyone.

I wonder both who the musical guest this year will be and who will have them on stage? Probably Microsoft. Gotta pad out 2 drat hours.

EA conferences are basically Ubisoft conferences but without the thin veneer of irony.

Will EA or Activision publish a single third party game between them this year or is it all their own poo poo from now on?

EA has their EA originals program (really just a publishing label for indie Swedish developers).

Acti-Blizz has Destiny 2 expansions.

Devolver's presentation should be before EA's and they should just play EA's last year's presentation. People will not be able to tell the difference between EA e3 2017 and 2018.

Battlefield? Check. Anthem? Check. Madden & Fifa? Check.

e: I feel like the entire conversation on oppression being protested in a non-violent and yet, actually still respectful manner and the intolerant reaction towards that based entirely on "a bad song" has gone completely over your head.

gently caress you for coming up with an infinitely cooler idea than whatever we'll get.

actually this sounds like a nightmare collab between From Software and the still-MIA Vanillaware Aegis Rim mech game.

The 2 hour ms show is gonna be 3rd party town. There was that leak 2 months ago about like a dozen games they bought marketing rights to, from cyberpunk, borderlands, splinter cell, etc.

That plus the move to a new venue for the show seems like pretense for the dramatically reduced show floor presence ms has as they continue to fail to make any games

I guess being the first show to showcase stuff like Cyberpunk or Splinter Cell is kind of neat, even if I'm gonna be thinking "yeah I'm getting this....on PS4"

They showcased DBFighterZ first last year but I doubt it lead to additional XBOX sales

Nothing's going to lead to more Xbox sales if they continue the model of "Windows 10 also gets everything." Why buy Microsoft's console when you can just plug a controller into your computer and get the same thing?

I'm not complaining, of course, but it is a curious business choice. When the PS4 competes technologically and the Switch offers a different experience, Xbox needs something to set it apart and offering its "exclusives" on a different platform isn't doing it any favors.
