[Savinowned]

I love EZA so much.

 

[Robottiimu2000]

Excellent!!!
Watching right away!...

 

[ChaosZeroX]

This is great. Can't wait to hear it on the way home lol

 

[Freeman]

The release of a betting special officially marks the time to get hyped about E3..

 

[jett]

Watching now.

What were they thinking with the location? So much background noise.

 

[Confused Cheeseburger]

Watching now.

They make 40k a month. Can't they get better sound production? What were they thinking?

Cost of living in damn near most vaguely populated areas of urban California requires blood sacrifice, so I'm not surprised.

 

[El-Suave]

8 dogs?! Kyle, what are you thinking?

Watch Dogs 2 had lots of dogs in their preview footage, if they show the right scenes you'll have more dogs than in Huber's bet in that game alone.

 

[Deadman]

So good. That sifted joke lmao.

Bets:
Across all press conferences, how many dogs? 7
How many times will Crash bandicoot jump? 23
How many seconds will Shawn Layden hold his hands together during the Sony press conference? (Any finger to finger contact) 75
How many times will we hear the word amazing at the XBox conference? 15

Double Down on Don (over/under):
Kratos will have 20 confirmed kills in the Playstation conference. Over
Bethesda will dedicate 5:15 to The Elder Scrolls: Legends. Over

Team bets:
Will Zelda Have A Female Lead? No
Will Kindom Hearts Unveil a Pixar World? No
Will a Kickstarter campaign be announced at any press conference? Yes
Will Hideo Kojima reveal himself? Yes
Will we see an actual kraken in the Sea of Thieves presentation? Yes
Will the Evil Within 2 have black bars? No
Will there be a trailer for the next Halo game, not including Halo Wars 2? No
Will Knack rise again? No
Will Michael Damiani pre-order Final Fantasy 7 Remake? Yes
Will Sonic the Hedgehog appear in the Sony or Microsoft press conferences? No
Will EA bring a female athlete onto the stage? Yes
Will a Red Dead game announced in a trailer using a modern licensed song? No

Final bet:

New crash bandicoot gameplay demo. Remaster of original 3 announced and released 2016.

 

[Hasney]

Watching now.

What were they thinking with the location? So much background noise.

It's $50k for a studio and the indoors was being used to film the group stream. It was the only time before E3 they were all together.

 

[Ryuuga]

Yikes that SIFTD dig.

 

[Archpath1]

My simple bet

Phantom dust will rise from the dust
And make an appearance

 

[FootballFan]

Best in the biz

 

[truestatic]

My god their stakes are fantastic. I love it.

I regret only that they cannot both lose.

 

[somecrazymember]

Lol this was really funny. Discovered them last year at E3. Have been following since then

 

[Already Torn]

I think Damiani screwed Kyle over, but we'll have to see.

 

[Karu]

Dat siftd joke tho... Oo

 

[Permanently A]

Oh god I love these so much

 

[lazyguy]

God I don't even know what I did for E3 before them.
Does anyone "bet" with them? You know, do you try to see how many questions you got right?

 

[DangerMouse]

You can put money down, but I don't think SE has actively started courting preorders yet. That typically starts with them defining the limited/collector's editions and preorder bonuses.

Right, but it's kind of a loophole

 

[Alucrid]

Final Bet

Shawn Layden will appear on stage at the Sony E3 press conference stage wearing a t shirt of a classic PS1 game that has absolutely no appearance during the conference.

 

[plasmawave]

Great trash talking.

 

[Toki767]

How do we know Damiani hasn't already pre-ordered the FF VII Remake?

[Opt1kon_]

YOOOOOOO.

Holy 😳😂 I literally didn't expect him to say that

 

[AcademicSaucer]

lol at female zelda, zelda is the princess ...

 

[Novel Mike]

Oh that was great although personally if Bosman really wanted to hurt Huber...

I'd make the stakes that he can't play Shenmue 3 for a month after its release if he loses >:X

Super mean and evil but Bosman does like to play the villian.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Ohhh hell Yeah.

 

[eFKac]

Wow Kyle was antagonistic this year, that Siftd jab, Huber fans shittalking! Savage.

He's gonna troll Huber hard if he loses, should have done a non-speedrun strats clause.

Therefore #TeamBosman, that win stake is amazing!

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

oh daaamn just read what siftd.net is and what happened to them.

Made my soul burn slow daaamn

 

[wiibomb]

it was amazing, I just felt so disappointing the final shout out between them wasn't recorded... it was the most amazing thing out of announcements of E3 last year

oh and I actually felt bad for the siftd joke...

 

[MattyG]

"ROBBED. Not like SIFTD, BUT ROBBED"

Ice cold, Bosman. :lol

Holy shit.

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

Love this

Too bad my favorite part got lost because they ran out of batteries.

I'll just have to settle for rewatching last years screaming "WWE" style showdown
https://youtu.be/6xFAHDc3LrQ?t=28m18s


Siftd joke was savage AF

 

[Zach]

Fun.

 

[Negator]

Brutal Bosman with the savage SIFTD jab, god damn.
