This is hilarious lol https://life.indiegogo.com/fundraisers/save-jed-and-laura-s-asses

Finally the show is over.  I will say, fantastic presentation, good host, this is great for PC gaming, but 2 and a half hours is kind of a ridiculous time and there's so much they could've cut out.  Next year, I think they cut it down to maybe more like an hour and a half long and it'll be great.

I loved the format! I thought the talk show format was a great way to get developers talking about their games in a less scripted way- although it was kinda funny when one of the devs (I forget which) came out on the stage and just stood there and started talking and then showed a trailer then left. I guess he missed the memo?

There is probably a lot they could have cut, but when you're looking at a platform as broad as the PC, there's a lot to cover there. Maybe if they'd done an hour to an hour and a half in two segments over different days?

I feel like they could've cut out a lot of the repeat stuff from games that had already been shown a few times before and just done a short sizzle reel of the PC features unless they were getting something special.  Definitely loved the format though.  More of this, less of what Square did lol

Sorry for posting this again, but I realized I originally posted it in the wrong thread:

So Nintendo was just one big disappointment. I almost want to sell my Wii U because there's like nothing to look forward to now. And where are all the third-party games they were talking about having for E3?  :(

Oh, and deathmatch Metroid...WTF?! We want a proper Metroid game!!!

We will bring it here haha.

The two worst ones were EA and Square.... Square was boring and dragged on. Felt like I was back in high school.

Bethesda was the best IMO.

But I do want a Wii U, got my list of games i want and its always increasing. But we all have different taste haha.

I feel like Square's presentation would have been better with less talking and more gameplay/ videos that aren't the same as before. EA had some very weird moments, and I can't believe they spent a bunch of time talking about a Minions mobile game.

Anyways, I think Nintendo could have done more to show the games coming out this year ( although they may be thinking of doing direct closer to those release dates I dunno), and there aren't many third party games coming out either like Devil's Third ( should have talked about it).. Thankfully, I think the exclusives for Wii U such as SMT x FE and Mario Maker give it an advantage in variety over Microsoft and Sony's exclusives at the moment.

I still have yet to watch Square's presentation. Last one left for me. I'm hoping, if nothing else, they give us a full trailer for the FF7 remake. We only got a teaser at the Sony Conference.

The trailer they showed for the FF7 remake was the exact same trailer you saw at the Sony Conference. They mostly just talked about how it would be different from the original game.

So I was talking to a friend yesterday, and I pitched this conspiracy theory: we haven't seen a truly NEW Mario game on the Wii U that wasn't an iteration of one of the other games - nothing like Mario Galaxy. We haven't seen a Metroid period, and we *know* Retro is working on something. And now Zelda's been delayed. What are the odds they are building their launch lineup for the NX?

On the Square conference, I don't get the hate. Unless of course you just didn't care for the games they showed, which were mostly JRPGs. Did the presenters sing & dance?  No, but I don't give a crap about that - the footage they showed was really good IMO. Yes, FF7 & World of FF were repeats from Sony's show, but AFAIK the footage we saw for Just Cause 3, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Hitman was all new. And I know the Star Ocean: Integrity & Faithlessness and the Kingdom Hearts 3 footage was brand new.
"When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed
if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I
became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the
desire to be very grown up.” ― C.S. Lewis
