E3 2008 Official Thread of "WHERE/WHEN... Can I see E3?"


Recommended Posts

Well seeing as the conferences are all at different times I think one big E3 thread is manageable, and then for any big announcements, such as a new game, it can have it's own topic in the respected Sony/MS/Nintendo section.

But hey, if people want individual threads for each E3 discussion, go ahead and make them!

The main purpose of this thread was to cut down on the "Where can I watch E3/When is E3 starting?" topics/questions we'll no doubt still see anyway ... :/ :p

While I understand you trying to organise the news coming frmo E3 in one topic in general, it never ends up that way unfortunately.

This thread has been useful for me and I'm sure others for the times, but like every year it usually turns into chaos of topics for every bit of news, and there are more people posting gaming news than there use to be, so I dread to think for multiple topics too.

The E3 topic for the Sony press conference last year was up to 15 pages in like 2 hours from the press conference for just talking while it was going on and then died off, so would it not be better to have a nice topic that can die of easily than one that has pages upon pages of useless information taking away from the point of the topic?

And seeing the way the press conferences are running, I wouldn't be surprised if you are going to get all the Xbox conference talk in here, it will fill up with pages, then people will start seperate ones for say Sony or Nintando.

Done (Y)

Keep this topic for technical questions on streams/E3, and the official topics for each console for discussing what has been shown at E3.

Nothing worse than 15 pages of "HEY GUYZ WHERZ E3 LINKZ?!11" cluttering up the discussion topics :no:

Woo!

Noticed someone already made a topic asking for where to see a live stream, always one. :laugh:

G4 has pre-conference video up - http://e3.g4tv.com/e32008/press_conf_detai...onference_key=1

Laggy as hell for me though, get that sorted for the conference G4.

Pretty laggy here too, im trying IGN's but it doesnt load :(, to be specific, it crashes my Firefox... they made me install an add on too

G4 stream is unwatchable for me right now. IGNs still shows the Live Wire logo.

Yeah im on IGN as well.

Complete (N) though to the fact you can't full screen on IGN (unless you pay for IGN Insider). I don't mind that it's not in HD IGN, I still want to fullscreen an SD broadcast.

Typical IGN

I'm on Ubuntu with Firefox 3.0

"We're sorry, but only the following browsers are supported on your operating system at this time:

* Safari 1.3.2 (build 312.5) or later

* Firefox 1.5 or later

It looks like your operating system is not supported. The following operatings systems are supported at this time:

* Windows XP, 2000 or Vista

* Mac OS X 10.3 or greater

"

G4's website sucks at streaming, and I can't find a live broadcast (video) of EA's presser anywhere else :( I was hoping to see Crysis: Warhead and anything from Valve.

G4 should GTFO after that absolutely ass attempt at a stream of the MS conference and now this.

IGN put up a higher quality stream first of all, and it was butter smooth from start to finish.

Sadly IGN aren't doing the EA conference.

Lame, EA actually had some good stuff being shown. Left 4 Dead had a few redesigns done apparently, and id's next title, Rage, is being published through EA Partners. Mad I missed those.

EA Partners keeps looking better and better. They give developers the longitude to do what they want, and it makes EA a ton of money.

SpikeTV which I assume is what G4TV is, are doing an HD broadcast for free on TV I think.

edit: I think SpikeTV and G4TV are two different things. I dunno if it's on TV then Larry :/

SpikeTV is a different channel then G4TV, I don't believe SpikeTV will be doing any coverage. G4TV has for at least the last 3 years done free coverage for E3.

Well nevermind the coverage..cause no matter what you watch or listen to nobody is going to hear what most FPS players were hoping for from EA...and that was a Battlefield 3 announcement.... we know there doing a 5th BF Title and today would have been a good day to announce it.

EA= fail

    • Notion is shutting down its email client one year after launch by David Uzondu In April 2025, Notion launched Notion Mail, an AI-powered email client that acted as a customizable overlay for your existing accounts. Instead of replacing Gmail entirely, it reimagined how users interacted with their inboxes by offering features like intelligent auto-labeling alongside automated calendar scheduling. Now, a little over a year later, Notion has announced that it is shutting it all down on September 22. Since Notion Mail is a frontend client, most of your Gmail data will remain safe inside your Google account, but the company said that you must export stuff specific to Notion Mail, like snippets, custom auto-label instructions, email drafts, and scheduled drafts, before the deadline. Starting today, June 25, you can export that data directly from the app or the web interface, and this grace period will last all the way until September 21. Once September 22 arrives, Notion will permanently delete all unsaved local assets, including files you attached to snippets. Your existing database syncs and mail blocks will persist, though they will stop receiving new messages after the shutdown. Notion advises that if you or your company operate within a regulated environment, you must transition off earlier than the general shutdown date to maintain compliance. Companies that rely on HIPAA coverage face an even tighter timeline and must transition away from the platform by June 30th. Notion, in its X announcement post, basically said that it doesn't see the point of maintaining a standalone email client, especially when users have shifted their habits toward automation. The platform pointed to its Notion agents, which it claims "more than half of Notion Mail users" already employ to manage emails without ever opening an actual inbox, so it is "going all in" on using these agents to run your inbox. Notion introduced Notion Agents last September at the "Make With Notion" conference, giving users AI-powered digital assistants that can do stuff like run in the background on specific schedules (e.g., summarizing your daily open tasks every morning at 8 AM).
