Support NeoGAF

[Haunted]

woah

 

[Leafhopper]

Because games will inevitably overlap, they're already too long and boring, and GAF never ceases to complain during them because a new game is not announced every second of it.

Ah good point. Thing is I am expecting a few more exclusives hopefully. I don't really play consoles anymore outside of a WiiU I have now a days and I don't play a lot of AAA games on my PC. I like a lot of middle tier stuff.

That said with the companies listed, there has gotta be some overlap. I am hoping there are other companies as well.

No Bethesda on the floor lends credence to the rumors that Fallout 4 might be an Xbox One exclusive. This time Spencer has gone too far.

Bethesda has their own conference this year though, remember?

 

[Yoday]

Didn't they do this a few years ago too? I don't remember it really amounting to anything very big.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

No Microsoft?

Win for PC.

You shut your mouth with such filth

 

[SerTapTap]

This is a nice first step, but we all know PC isn't a Real™ platform until it has representation in Hyperdimension Neptunia.

Seriously though, how many new conferences is that this year? I guess we had to make up for Konami and Nintendo anyway. Interested to see how this turns out.

 

[javac]

They have plenty of PC footage already in the other press events, but sure.

 

[Lady Siara]

I'm curious what it will be like. Is it going to be like most of the other big conferences with a focus on AAA games or if it will have a more balanced approach?

This just shows that PC gaming is really surging as of late. Also, please god don't let it be full of repeats from other conferences.

 

[bltn]

And I thought I couldn't get more hyped for E3?!

 

[Xion_Stellar]

No Bethesda on the floor lends credence to the rumors that Fallout 4 might be an Xbox One exclusive. This time Spencer has gone too far.

Bethesda is having their own conference.

 

[Tregard]

Fuck that. It's all about the PC Portable.

Steamboy incoming.

8 conferences and counting. Dis gun b gud.

 

[Leafhopper]

And I thought I couldn't get more hyped for E3?!

Thanks to this now I am actually excited for it.

 

[Lockjaw333]

PC 2 incoming?

Hahaha. Hoping for specs and release window!

 

[SSReborn]

Maaaan I'd hate to be a journalist this year for e3.

 

[ArjanN]

Thanks to this now I am actually excited for it.

While it's neat to have a specific PC thing, in practice most everything at E3 comes out on PC anyway.

 

[KHlover]

SQUARE ENIX - I know it will probably be only JC3, but please suprise us with some JRPG goodness

Edit: Forgot Deus Ex. Still...

 

[TheTrain]

And Deus Ex. But this is pretty cool though! Also Day9 hosting it i am totally ok with that he is a great commentator and show host will do him fine. What a time for PC gaming.

srsly? Shit, i'll watch it *_*

 

[D4Danger]

PC 2 incoming?

I laughed.

 

[SerTapTap]

PC 2 incoming?

This kinda sounds like something "Games for Windows Vista" microsoft would have done, honestly

 

[Dahaka]

Where's 3DFX?

 

[Haunted]

Square Enix is the one that is genuinely surprising.

Eidos makes plenty of PC games.

 

[the TMO]

PC 2 incoming?

 

[RulkezX]

Dean Hall isn't the greatest ambassador for PC gaming.

 

[madjoki]

Nice to see Microsoft finally doing something other than saying We care about PC gamers.

Question is 'is this really needed'. Well there's Paradox but with most games being multi-platformers.

 

[patapuf]

While it's neat to have a specific PC thing, in practice most everything at E3 comes out on PC anyway.

Jep, which is why i've never really missed a "pc" conference.

It's nice that companies like Paradox get a bit more exposure at an event like E3 though.

 

[Leafhopper]

While it's neat to have a specific PC thing, in practice most everything at E3 comes out on PC anyway.

True however I want to see more stuff made for PC in mind, rather than this pile of FPS games, this lesser pile of third person shooters, this PS4 or XB1 game you won't get for a year because of an exclusive deal, and these indie games you were going to get anyway.

I want to see some more CRPGs or something. Some more experimental stuff but, again with the companies listed so far I probably won't get that but I can be hopeful.

SQUARE ENIX - I know it will probably be only JC3, but please suprise us with some JRPG goodness

The PS4 port of the Steam Port back to Steam of FF7.

 

[Rockk]

Sweet! Square is definitely going to announce FFXV for PC there. 100%

 

[Bumpers]

Not too sure over the hype for this, almost every game announced at a console conference comes to PC.

Regarding Square Enix, don't overhype yourselfs, remember that Triad Wars is still a PC exclusive!

 

[cackhyena]

1am on a tuesday...so instead of taking only one day off now i'm forced to take two...ughhhh

How could they force you to do this. I'm gonna write a strongly worded letter.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Why Humble Bundle?

 

[glaurung]

Excellent idea, but why in the nine hells is this hosted by PC Gamer? They're easily the biggest douches in the gaming world today.

Should be hosted by NeoGAF.

Guys, let's make it happen. BlimBlim guarantees good video quality and EviLore kicks Peter Molyneux in the ballsack.

E3 2015: Everyone has their own Press Conference!

You get a Press Conference, YOU get a Press Conference
EVERYBODY. GETS. A. PRESS. CON!

 

[yuraya]

So now we have conferences for...everyone.

Best E3 ever? Massively hyped and can't wait. There is bound to be some amazing announcements. Hoping for indie game announcements to show up for the PC conference. Also some new trailer from Star Citizen would be nice.

 

[Leafhopper]

Not too sure over the hype for this, almost every game announced at a console conference comes to PC.

Again, hoping for more PC centered games, something different. Probably setting myself up for disappointment but, yeah.

 

[Vanillalite]

Need a big Hearthstone update Blizz!

 

[Joey Ravn]

LR:XIII maybe lol (where the hell is it?)

It was always set to release during Spring 2015. No concrete date yet, but it has to be just around the corner.

Spoiler

I bought FFXIII, witnessed the terrible performance and never even made it past the first fight.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Should be hosted by NeoGAF..

We should have our own conference.

It could be biased towards Sony/Nintendo/PC games/anyone but Microsoft apparently.

 

[GhostTrick]

In a perfect world, Square Enix would be here for Japanese games for PC and more Final Fantasy. In this world, it's going to be about the Eidos side. :/

 

[LiquidSolid]

No Bethesda on the floor lends credence to the rumors that Fallout 4 might be an Xbox One exclusive. This time Spencer has gone too far.

lol, same shit every year. Every third party game is apparently Xbone exclusive at one point.

Anyway, this is interesting but getting some news on a few upcoming games and maybe a few indie announcements is about the extent of what I'm expecting.

 

[Theonik]

Nintendo(?)

Nintendo is past this circus. One of the more positive things I can say about them.
They will probably do a series of videos instead.

 

[xzeldax3]

Final Fantasy XV for PC finally confirmed (after the directx hints).

 

[Leafhopper]

In a perfect world, Square Enix would be here for FFXV, KH3 or even Type-0 for PC. In this world, it's going to be about the Eidos side. :/

They said they want to put FF15 on PC but we are talking probably a year or years after the PS4 and XB1 release, so I don't even expect to see it there.

Kingdom Hearts is a fever dream though, although those games on PC would be cool as I barely even got to play those games. Not because I don't have a PS2 I just keep forgetting to try em.

 

[Bumpers]

The reason people are excited is because for years PC ports and games have been an afterthought for many developers and whilst that is still true for some developers many of them are now taking the PC space very seriously.

So whilst it may seem insignificant it's actually quite important.

I know, however all of the developers/publishers on there already take PC seriously (Square Enix is so-so, Human Revolution was tailored for PC but Final Fantasy on the other hand...)

I'll be tuning in, but I'll be surprised if it's more than just extended gameplay.

Now if only it weren't hosted by PC Gamer. Though I'm not sure who else would really be appropriate yet impartial regarding distribution platforms. Kind of the nature of PC, for better or worse.

...oh right, I guess actually Microsoft would in theory be perfect but...yeah not in this universe.

Regarding Square Enix, don't overhype yourselfs, remember that Triad Wars is still a PC exclusive!

How dare you remind me of this

 

[Maebe]

PC 2 incoming?

megaton

 

[TimmiT]

SEGA!
SEGA WHERE ARE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU?!

They will hold their own press conference. It'll be 80 minutes of Sonic and 5 minutes of Tembo the Badass Elephant.

 

[Rosur]

Cool, will watch if not at a bad time.
