Why is it still down lol i want my tickets

Some of us have been refreshing for -- AND I WISH I WERE JOKING -- three hours straight.

I tell you what though, following along in this thread has made it all almost worth it. It's been a great time. Good people in this thread. Good people.

 

[Elandyll]

Whelp... Not sure if they changed because bofogo promised the same registration work for cheaper, or better registration overall... But it looks like the change didn't quite pan out.
I remember previous years being rough, but not quite that rough.

 

[deranged_666]

Back hurts from being hunched over for 3 straight hours. Going to lay down with my phone and keep an eye on it. Sigh

 

[NESpowerhouse]

Man, there's haven't even been any random "I got my tickets!" in the last hour plus...

Pretty sure the entire website is offline. At this point I'll just leave it to the brave souls whi want to keep refreshing the page over and over again.

I'll just swooce on in after someone manages to snag one.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

I'm pretty excited to see new footage of God of War, that zombie biker game, more of Last of us 2, some more of the next uncharted and hopefully some FF7 remake episode 1 gameplay. what other surprises will they have?

 

[Cloud7]

We're coming up on Hour #3! (in the voice of WCW commentator Tony Schiavonne)

I got my TCG event tonight. I might end up being screwed out of this.

Stage 1: Denial

 

[charpunk]

Screw this. I'm just going to watch this with some friends, beer, and chicken wings.

 

[RedAssedApe]

hilarious...3 hours in and still nothing

 

[TetraGenesis]

Does the entire site being down indicate they're undergoing emergency maintenance? Could that mean good things in an hour or something?

Or does it mean nothing but this fucking website fucking sucks?

 

[JetBlackPanda]

It would be nice to get a tweet or something from Sony. Instead they are taking this L and its gofobo's problem.

 

[IDontBeatGames]

I really wish this was that cliche moment where out of no where everything works right when everyone is ready to give up

 

[Listonosh]

Screw this. I'm just going to watch this with some friends, beer, and chicken wings.

Sadly, I think that's where I've ended up as well. Not that that won't be a fun option, but we were all pumped to watch it in the theater.

 

[Evuk]

has anyone (other than the 5 people who have said they got tickets) got it working yet?

 

[HvySky]

I leave for one hour... You guys are goddamn troopers.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Too bad neither Sony nor Gobobobobobobobobo has said anything in response.

 

[Baron Von Beans]

If its first come, first serve for the actual day of event regardless of ticket, does it really matter when people get tickets?

Edit-nvm, I see the "while supplies last" now.

 

[IDontBeatGames]

I leave for one hour... You guys are goddamn troopers.

Welcome

 

[magikalf]

well, i'm pretty much out, too. This was a complete joke. I would have much rather paid like $10 on PSN to get in. I now have to get ready for work, where im going to be SOL with being able to get on my phone at all. If anyone ever gets an extra Houston pass, I'm searching.

Honestly. A simple damage control tweet would be appreciated from either of these friggin companies.

Hahahahaha, me too, man. I keep thinking it's coming. I've officially gone off the deep end.

Last time, it took a while too, but it was more of a sold out issue than denial of service. Refreshing for hours finally released some pending tickets.

FUCK GOFOBO. Worst service ever, and always has been from what I remember from my previous interactions with it.

 

[IDontBeatGames]

If its first come, first serve, does it really matter when people get tickets?

Yes and no.
You can get tickets that promise you an entry or you can get tickets that wait list you which means, you can go to the theater but not be promised an actual entry.

 

[NESpowerhouse]

 

[Dynomutt]

Last year got tickets last year rented an Infiniti Q50 Sport and made it a day trip did 120 the whole way to Deer Valley, AZ. Ate at Fired Pie played Ridge Racer PSP on my Vita. Awesome event but Gofobo is making it a no go with site speed being all slow mo.

 

[Lee]

Yes and no.
You can get tickets that promise you an entry or you can get tickets that wait list you which means, you can go to the theater but not be promised an actual entry.

Does that just vary by theater then? My ticket says:

They know this is happening. They're chilling sipping on that koolaid.

*Sigh* fuck this year's E3 (and Sony) if I don't get this. I've never missed it and this is making me miss it.

 

[schaft0620]

Who would be the person at Sony that would actually do something about this?

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Yes and no.

tickets don't promise entry this year.

it said they will be overbooking theaters to fill it. Day of its first come first serve if enough people get in line before you, you are out.. ticket or not.

 

[TetraGenesis]

I leave for one hour... You guys are goddamn troopers.

Have you been gone a whole hour??

Jesus, I don't even have a concept of time anymore. Ever since we jumped to September '16.

Perfect.

 

[metsallica]

Would've been cool if Sony or Gofobo acknowledged this in any way. The biggest fans are often treated the worst.

 

[Drayco21]

Three
Fucking
Hours

What the fuck

 

[TetraGenesis]

Would've been cool if Sony or Gofobo acknowledged this in any way. The biggest fans are often treated the worst.

'Cause they know we'll take it

 

[SheHateMe]

Outstanding.

Back from lunch annnnnnnd...

...nothing.

 

[Dynomutt]

I'm getting light headed...I'm woozy...I haven't eaten yet...I think my blood sugar is getting low...

 

[IDontBeatGames]

Well then.. lol..

Perfect.

Good thing you're not Barry Allen

Does that just vary by theater then? My ticket says:

Thanks for the screenshot

 

[Brunire]

Does that just vary by theater then? My ticket says:

Interesting... so it looks like there is no need to rush and we will all be able to get "tickets" at some point LOL

 

[Mesoian]

Well I forgot all about this. Watching it from home it looks like.

 

[iosefe]

so where is the majority of MiamiGAF going this year? i'm probably gonna do the Sawgrass(Sunrise) location again instead of Sunset who knows...

Sunrise, Sunset...
Sunrise, Sunset...

Slowly pass the hours!

 

[BRSxIgnition]

Ya' know what... I'm just gonna go get some food in me.

Fingers crossed it doesn't sell out in the next half hour.

 

[schaft0620]

Well I forgot all about this. Watching it from home it looks like.

You are still OK the site has been down all day.

 

[HvySky]

We actually looped back around to September '16 again, Futurama-style.

 

[KneehighPark]

I'm curious what the "except for members of the reviewing press" means. Wonder if an E3 Press Badge will help out in this case.

See ya then!

 

[MapleStory]

gofobo at 1pm was the equivalent of those awful Black Friday Walmart stories where people end up getting trampled to death.

In this case, gofobo.com was the one that got trampled and we all just ran into an empty room, confused.

 

[gwiz210]

While we're in September '16 we should do something about Trump while waiting for the site to go back up.

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

If Sony could figure out how to stream out in 4K HDR, I would be fine with all of this.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

I'm curious what the "except for members of the reviewing press" means. Wonder if an E3 Press Badge will help out in this case.

It's a generic disclaimer for movies, reserving seats for press to preview the movie so they can review it.

 

[Brawl96]

Does that just vary by theater then? My ticket says:

Reviewing press? How do I apply for that?

 

[IDontBeatGames]

While we're in September '16 we should do something about Trump while waiting for the site to go back up.

If there is something I have learned from watching The Flash, it's that we should never ever mess with the timeline cause if you do, it only gets worse
