PC gaming is dying everyone. Dying. It's dead, it's undead.

 

[diaspora]

source 3 (skipping the number 2) , left4dead 3, half life 3, portal 3, counter strike 3 , dota 3 ,ricochet 3,team fortress 3, rollcage 3 and no one lives forever 3
Valve steambox with radeon 390x for 333 dollars with 3 free games and steam OS 3.3

So, nothing =P

Yeah, one of the biggest pioneers of esports, makers of one of the most iconic FPS franchises ever made, currently running one of the biggest games in the world alongside several other great titles.

Who would want to hear from them, right?

Hey, if DOTA/CSGO are you jam I guess I can see why, but I couldn't give less of a shit about competitive gaming.

 

[Tovarisc]

What is Konami going to announce anyway?

That they don't like a lot of moneys and for that reason got rid of Kojima?

 

[SneakyStephan]

So, nothing =P

It'll be like the year of luigi
year of the 3, they've just been saving it all to be able to stick with the theme

 

[Coolwhip]

That guy is pretty damn annoying to listen to. Why would he host it?

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

What is Konami going to announce anyway?

Just their departure I guess, maybe a plan to outsource and bastardize MGS6 and their dislike of anything with Kojima anywhere near it. Perhaps try and convince gamers that gambling is a better use of their hard earned cash. I mean that's really all they have now other than PES huh?

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Wow, Square Enix too? Weird.

Dean Hall is coming up and DayZ is still a mess.

Dean isn't part of DayZ anymore - thats all BIS (bohemia)

 

[jmga]

It's time to talk about FFXV on PC.

 

[fantomena]

Valve better be there.

 

[Tovarisc]

Dean Hall is coming up and DayZ is still a mess.

Dean is there most likely to talk about his experiences as PC developer, something about DayZ and then about his new project that he has started since leaving DayZ dev team / Bohemia.

 

[tamaster92]

Dean is there most likely to talk about his experiences as PC developer, something about DayZ and then about his new project that he has started since leaving DayZ dev team / Bohemia.

I am unsure about the last bit though. I'd love him to talk about it a bit but it's VERY early in dev and he seems to be against any sort of early access of showing off. (I imagine DayZ burned him a lot)

Last I heard from him he didn't want to announce it until it was a month or less from release. Might have changed though

 

[Tagyhag]

There better be like 3x the amount of news in general this E3 compared to the last one, this is getting crazy.

 

[biteren]

What is Konami going to announce anyway?

METAL GEAR: ROUGE!!!
(cod clone made by Codemasters)

 

[oti]

There better be like 3x the amount of news in general this E3 compared to the last one, this is getting crazy.

When I worked for a print magazine I was also part of a news team live-blogging/newsifying E3.

It was hell.

 

[Zombine]

PC has been the gift that keeps on giving this year. So glad that I built my rig in November.

 

[Grief.exe]

Why would people expect or want Valve to be there? They'd have nothing to contribute other than a new Steam feature... maybe.

Source 2 and L4D3 are in active development, Steam Machines set to release later this year, and any new content for Dota 2/CSGO/TF2 would effect millions.

What is Konami going to announce anyway?

Most likely MGSV related, but we can always hope for the existing Silent Hill PC versions showing up on digital distribution.

 

[diaspora]

Source 2 and L4D3 are in active development, Steam Machines set to release later this year, and any new content for Dota 2/CSGO/TF2 would effect millions.

Source 2 is more of a GDC thing as an engine would be better geared towards a developers conference. More DLC for old games is what I'd qualify as nothing. We've really only got L4D3 maybe. Same number of new games coming as Konami.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Starcraft Episode 3 announcment please!

 

[LegalEagleMike]

But what about the people who said E3 was dying?

 

[Thorgal]

I am feeling left out here , guys .

Neogaf needs to have it's own conference at E3 too .

Evilore plz .

 

[diaspora]

But what about the people who said E3 was dying?

E3 was dying. Or at least it was is a really bad place a few years ago.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

But what about the people who said E3 was dying?

2012 is when we said that, 2013, 14 and this year will hopefully change our minds.

 

[oti]

NeoGAF Moderator Simulator 2015

 

[Thorgal]

NeoGAF Moderator Simulator 2015

I'd pay money for that .

 

[ViciousDS]

sssooo many, so mane damn conferences


I'm glad I have monday, tuesday and wednesday off this year. Holy shit

 

[Bollocks]

lol can't help but think:
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

 

[HellofaMouse]

wheres valve

 

[Nzyme32]

What did they do last year? What was shown and what was revealed?

I'm wrong, I'm thinking of the panels they did at PAX

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

wheres valve

valve just does what it wants, when it wants.

 

[jim2point0]

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.

Huh? Why do you say this?

 

[tuxfool]

True however I want to see more stuff made for PC in mind, rather than this pile of FPS games.

CIG is going to be there, something definitely not console compatible.

 

[On Demand]

G4 being around would of made it easier to watch all these.

Nice to see a big presence at E3 from everyone anyway.

 

[Lingitiz]

This is awesome, very excited to see Blizzard on board. Where's Valve?

 

[RedSwirl]

Day[9] hosting?

best conference confirmed



Well, to be fair, some of these are more important than others. Going through the ones you listed...

• Bethesda is really just that one announcement we all know is coming
• EA should be interesting with proper current-generation sports titles
• Sony should be interesting
• Ubi could be good if they have new small projects waiting in the wings to follow up on Child of Light, Valiant Hearts and Grow Home
• Square Enix isn't really anything if the Eidos stuff is at the PC conference
• Nintendo won't have a press conference, but their prepared long E3 video
• PC conference is a DAMN WILDCARD

Well, now that I thought about it... there is actually quite a lot to look forward to. :lol

The only confirmed thing coming from Bethesda right now is DOOM. We know Fallout 4 is almost certainly coming in addition to that, and we're hoping for Dishonored II.

 

[Durante]

Valve seems like a pretty huge omission.

Anyway, I won't expect much from this.

 

[Theonik]

When was the last time Valve even released a game?!

 

[Kilrogg]

Diablo 3 second expansion here we go!

 

[Nibel]

Diabloe 3 second expansion here we go!

Would absolutely love this.

 

[-SD-]

It will be Cringe Fest 9000. Mark my words.

 

[tuxfool]

Goes more back into my hate towards all this proprietary tech [TressFX, PhysX etc.] that is designed around specific HW [AMD or Nvidia] and if you don't own said HW you are in for garbage performance. Then if we assume that Nvidia isn't in this event because AMD is driving this boat, along with PC Gamer, it just adds to it.

Most AMD tech tends to be hardware agnostic.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

It will be Cringe Fest 9000. Mark my words.

Not much different from most e3 presentations then.

 

[Graphics Horse]

What is Konami going to announce anyway?

Nothing. I don't think they even had a pre recorded video last year did they? Kojima will probably only be allowed to go if he agrees to stay inside a cardboard box at all times.

 

[Veritigo_X]

Strangely enough, I think I'm most excited for Devolver from that list. They've been putting out quality titles lately.

 

[Nzyme32]

When was the last time Valve even released a game?!

Since 2006, they released a game every year up to 2013 when Dota 2 released. 2014 was the first year since 2005 where no new game was put out

2003 - Day of Defeat
2004 - HL2
2005 - [Nothing significant] HL2 LC / DoD Source
2006 - HL2 EP1
2007 - Orange Box (HL2 / EP1 / EP2 / Portal / TF2)
2008 - Left 4 Dead
2009 - Left 4 Dead 2
2010 - Alien Swarm
2011 - Portal 2
2012 - CS:GO
2013 - Dota 2 (Also most games moved to Linux)
2014 - [Nothing]
2015 - ?????

 

[Parsnip]

But I heard PC gaming is dead and/or dying.

 

[paperspace]

TressFX and PhysX are not proprietary tech.

 

[Jito]

Wonder what game Dean Hall will announce then bail on this time?

 

[BennyBlanco]

I like how they just listed cliffy B instead of the studio he's working at now

 

[Haunted]

That guy is pretty damn annoying to listen to. Why would he host it?

As long as they don't allow his cats with him on stage, it's going to be fine.
