Anyone know the conference will be (time and date)? Game sites are blocked at work :( Any where can it be streamed from?

 

Sony and Ubisoft haven't announced their times yet.

 

It'll most likely follow last years times though. They don't deviate much. MS > EA > Ubi > Sony all on the 9th, then Nintendo on the 10th.

Nothing there really shouts 'wow'.

 

In fact you could guess almost all of that based upon what they've already shown and what you would expect to see more footage of.

 

That's not to say it isn't good, but there's nothing particularly coming out of left field here.

Thanks, I'll have to catch it the day after in that case.

Is Nintendo skipping their E3 event, or is that still on?

It's not a traditional briefing, it's a "digital event" aka Nintendo Direct like 2013. That's still on for Tues at 10am.

You and Blackhearted really should get together to start the Not Easily Thrilled Gamers Association (NETGA) :rofl:

Haha yeah maybe so :rofl: .  Most of that list is stuff which has already been talked about so you naturally expect them to show more of it off at E3.  That's not to say i'm not looking forward to it, it will be a great show even just based off of that.

 

I'm not sure of the validity of that list anyway. It seems like someone just sat down and thought what people expect to see.  I'm sure Sony have some brand new stuff up their sleve not mentioned elsewhere yet.

Yeah also think those two lists are wishes on a screen, but if even half is true then Sony and MS have a lot to share, and that's just those two. You should be more excited hahaha! What do are you looking forward to?

Though Gurrilla Games is not a....game! :D

 

I think it's just because their RPG is rumoured to finally be getting shown and we don't know a working title for it yet. I think GIFs and general fan craziness are what I enjoy most about E3. The actual shows never deliver on the hype, while usually good, people online just go crazy with unrealistic expectations and ideas that what is still a corporate and shareholder based conference can be full of "jokes/megatons and craziness". I mean Shu and Adam Boyes wanted to show that game sharing video last year on stage at E3 and Jack Tretton while endorsing the overall project said no to it being on stage. On that note going to miss Jack this year, it was both awkward and charming watching his nervous self each year and the little jokes he tries to make about Sony (pre-E3 leaks/pink PSP/etc). New guy has a lot to live up to, as I said it's a corporate show, but nothing is worse than a dead personality reading off a prompt.

I would have to agree with this. I was actually hoping for some megatons or more new. But it could all be fake too.

Hahaha i was just teasing, totally got it and find it funny and uplifting as well. Especially this new usage of megatons heh heh. Hope Guerilla have a lot to share, i'm always up for more Killzone :rofl:

 

They could also do the PS Vita touch-based cooking show spin off, Kalzone: Pepperoni Fall, that would sell like hot pies :laugh:

    • Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.
    • Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
