one way to get whole the E3 silent...

[SpinX]

Well everyone is talking to eachother and getting real excited about all the games...
Boys pass out when seeying their beloved games in action like halo 3 etc...

But how could something stop all that, get their attention, or better how can SOMEONE do that?

that someone goes under the initials G-B

all gamers would drop their little gamepads of their puny consoles when he starts his speech through the speakers with:

I have something to say about Duke Nukem Forever...

(sorry if this is in the wrong subforum)

[Amakou]

I guess you've been out of the loop, bud.

E3 as we knew it is dead.

~Amakou~

[Gryph]

Duke Nukem is coming to those "puny" consoles by the way. And E3 is dead.

[John]

I love new members. :p

That, plus the fact that GB has said that they don't need E3 and probably will not attend to it anymore. At least, not from 3DR, maybe from a publisher though. :) (If E3 still exists next year)

[Micki!]

Wel, they said they wouldn't go there with DNF... If they ever had some other project to announce, i think it's alright to say, thet they might be there...

IF, E3 is still around... :o

[hell-angel]

That last one is definately the major question ;)

[unger316]

from what i have heard is that E3 is dead and that Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, EA and others will have thier own Conferences where they show off their new stuff...Even if their is a E3 next year sony and ea will not be their. Its gotten to be a waste of money and it would be cheaper for them do do their own conferences.

[SpinX]

i think you can,t call it dead if every game-magazine and game-website worldwide attends it every year...

ECTS is dead, but E3 will always be around...

Haven't you heard, that E3 possibly will be cancelled in 2007... :o
[Edit:]
It's all over the internet...
Here's a random article from IGN

It's not being cancelled, it's being downsized. It will just consist of small scale private showings from now on.

That's still very sad...

E3 was great for smaller companies to show off thier work, and get the needed attention...

Not really as it was, now when it is more dev to publisher oriented it will benefit both sides more. We will get the media and scoops from internet, no need for publicvisitors at E3. The needed attention will be better, you can show off your work on internet for the masses, and at E3 for different publishers. I see this an improvement over old. Though it is hard to give on something that has been for a while, you get used to it, and think that nothing should change.

[Amakou]

Hence, E3 as we knew it, is dead.

[SpinX]

So even if its downsized, you would get every journalist or guy there silent as i described above...:P

[Gatinater]

Ever since the incident in which a Counter-Strike fanboy proclaimed to a Battlefield 2 fanboy that CS is way better game causing an all out turbonerd brawl of sissy slapping, scratching and biting broke out suprise presentations have been restricted.

Never heard of THAT one before... :o

Wow, i must be wondering why that never happened to Console fanboys over there...

[SpinX]

yes because the PS3 fanboys vs XBox360 fanboys battle is one of the most annoying ones out there :)

[Gatinater]

These guys really got into it. They were all geared up for an RPG battle. They busted out their statuettes and twenty siders. The game didn't last for long though. The situation soon escalated into a milton Bratly affair. Just like Monopoly everyone was throwing dice and statuettes while shouting "OMG YOU FAGGOT NOOB CHEATER" and "STFU HOMO" along with a variety and combination of momma insults.This is why I don't go to E3 anymore. I want to be dodging chairs over video games.

"I want to be dodging chairs over video games."

This talk about throwing chairs reminds me about this:

I threw a chair across the office once to demonstrate what it looked like when a chair tumbled (before we were using real phyics) :) - George Broussard , September 15th, 2005.

[Zixinus]

E3 was overgo anyway. It was supposed to be for VG developers and not publishers to show off their stuff to a whole alot of people that weren't really necesery there.
The thing was getting out of hand anyway. What, like 2 hour wait till you could play the Wii for 5 minutes?

Hahaha...
That really made me laugh... :D

Makes me hope, sometime this year, he'll kick a reporter in the chest, and go like:
"We're currently fixing skeleton animations, and ragdoll effects... This should somehow give an idea of how it'll be like once finished" :D

[Malgon]

Hehe, nice one Micki! :)

[Micki!]

Hehe, nice one Micki! :)
Thanks, but i'm not joking... i WANT this to happen... :tinyted:

unrelated(except for the silent part).. but why has gatinater been banned? I never saw him piss someone off ..I think..

Probably a post violating the rules... Those post surely got deleted...
He got banned before... But that wasn't permanently...

But we shouldn't speak of that here... :o
