[Guileless]

This guy was a fucking LOSER. EA made him great!

i laughed

 

[Gator86]

ESPORTS

Basically

 

[MattAces]

Does anybody actually watch this shit? Fifa eSports? Pls.

Well, we are watching EA Play, which is worse.

 

[Kadin]

I know sports is still very important to EA but is it really a large part of their overall profit? This is the pov from a clear non-sports gamer so I guess I just never really notice the impact they have overall.

 

[LifEndz]

Enough of this Esports and live streamer worship stuff.

 

[MegaSackman]

Looks like this is going to be a waste of time.

 

[iFirez]

Jesssssus, way tooo much fat on this presentation. They really need to learn how to pace and streamline a presentation.

They should use Sony's conference last year as a base and keep cutting from that. It should be all about quick looks at lots of games with a few select extended looks. Not long speeches and PR bullshit sandwiches by mediocre trailers.

 

[Patterbits]

Do people who like Madden and FIFA go to E3 for sports game announcements?

 

[SargerusBR]

CR7 DansGame

 

[KHlover]

That was a REALLY sudden cut to the trailer lol

 

[ShooterMcGavin]

"THIS COULD BE YOU!"

*Pans to a picture of Razor Ramon*

 

[Agent_Carnage]

Im tired man

 

[Raven77]

E3 is off to a FANTASTIC start, minor changes to existing franchises like Madden, REVOLUTIONARY things like a map pack for BF 1, and SO MANY buzzwords you're likely to choke.

Leave it to EA to start E3 with a snore.

I'm not NOT excited about some of these games but the way they present them like they are some incredible revolution that will change gaming forever makes me want to puke a little.

 

[NaDannMaGoGo]

Just some hours ago I watched a Dota 2 tournament but god damn it, please, cut all of this eSport craps out.

 

[starmud]

we've tuned into EA lets play, e3 wha?

 

[Toa TAK]

e sports

are


laaaaame

 

[Charcoal]

Olympic champions right here

 

[kurahador]

Instead of developer interviews, we now get the player interviews. For the people!!...said EA.

 

[-BLITZ-]

Oh dear lord, I remember they started last year with the same Sports titles at the conference :/

 

[rikichi]

This is some cringe worthy shit

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

I'm only watching this to kill my boredom but this is having the complete opposite effect.

 

[Undrey]

That's it I'm watching the Giant Bomb stream.

 

[Vazduh]

The conference so far

 

[AgentLampshade]

I watch EA's conference every year, and I'm never sure why.

 

[Coffinhal]

They must have a generic trailer generator

They have 3 to 5 patterns they use for everything including the nonames esports worldwide stars

 

[Mik317]

the crowd noise is being hushed guys

 

[GeoramA]

A conference that shows e-sports footage. Only EA.

 

[mreddie]

RONALDO TIME

 

[Ikuu]

lol all this hype for the 2nd best player in the world lol

 

[jony_m]

Not realistic. Ronaldo never scores free kicks

 

[SchrodingerC]

The near silence from the journalists keeps making me laugh.

 

[Saiyan-Rox]

I always get like a massive feeling that everyone at EA smells thier own farts

 

[Zampano]

They moved to Saturday for THIS?

Fuck my life for not having anything better to do than watch it.

 

[Ferr986]

I know sports is still very important to EA but is it really a large part of their overall profit? This is the pov from a clear non-sports gamer so I guess I just never really notice the impact they have overall.

yes? like FIFA in Europe sells a shit ton all over the year.

 

[Kinyou]

EA rarely has a good conference

 

[Goodacre0081]

this is pretty dumb

 

[Linkyn]

Damn, Ronaldo sweating balls.

 

[iron_man]

We´re all masochists and gluttons for punishment! Same snooze fest every year but we still turn up! Every year it´s the same thing!

 

[HighResTomato]

They better upgrade Pro Clubs this year, enough of this shit EA.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

Is Bioware new game going to be shown today?

 

[ctfg23]

This is definitely an EA conference

 

[JigglesBunny]

Did they accidentally attach the Battlefield 1 sound mix to the FIFA trailer? Sounds like a fucking battleground.

 

[fantomena]

 

[Pachimari]

This seems fine so far, looks to me like GAF is looking for stuff to critique

They're always looking for the bad stuff, or stuff they aren't interested in. Sports events aren't for GAF I have gathered through the years.

But this FUT Championship looks great.

FIFA 18!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Quintin DM]

tbh I always forget madden and fifa have an esports thing going on. Like I don't hear anyone ever talking about them except at EAs conferences.

Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places for it tho.

 

[Nabbis]

Im not even watching the show, just reading gaf comments and laughing myself to tears.

 

[Rarius]

Here we go, different narration, same trailerrrrr

 

[RyanW]

I know sports is still very important to EA but is it really a large part of their overall profit? This is the pov from a clear non-sports gamer so I guess I just never really notice the impact they have overall.

With microtransactions from FIFA and Madden Ultimate Team? Most likely a huge chunk

 

[Avinexus]

Are they realy doubling down on sports games for eSports? Nobody even watches them...

 

[Darryl M R]

EA is a wasteman. Man no show games that are interesting these are all old tings.
