INTRODUCTION
___________________________________

Hello everyone, welcome to the NeoGAF E3 2017 Summary Thread!

I've noticed that AmirOx hasn't made a thread the past few years, but like him I love to summarize information – it removes the chaos of E3. So I'm going to copy his style from his previous threads, so immediate thanks to his hard work. I'm going to include announcements made the week before E3 and the immediate lead-in to E3. As such, this is very much a community effort, so if I fail to include something or you think any news is worth of this list, please feel free to let me know. It's very easy to miss information during E3.

How does it work?

In short, there will be two terms used for every bulletpoint. Wherever you see the word "Link" you'll get a direct link to an article, video or some other informative bit of news about the bulletpoint. Wherever you see the word "Thread", you'll get a link to an ongoing neoGAF discussion about that bit of news. This way, this thread is integrally linked to the community as well as E3 as a show. I hope this process makes things easy for you guys to follow!

How will the updating process work?

There will be four main posts, each segmented into themes. One is for Microsoft, one is for Nintendo and one is for Sony. The fourth is for Miscellaneous items and Multiplatform titles. Each day you can check my OP, and you'll see the latest bulletpoints with a timestamp. This is how it will look
June 6, 5:52PM(EST)
● Tom and Jerry has been announced for the 3DS, Vita and iPhones! (Link, Thread)
June 6, 7:00PM(EST)
● Remember that other shit? That was nothing. Kingdom Hearts III is not vaporware! (Link, Thread)

The latest update will always be at the most bottom of the page. This way, you'll always be able to see what news you might have missed. My schedule is going to be irregular, but in general you'll always see an update around 5:00PM(EST), and then continually until around 8:30PM(EST) as far as I can do. Keep checking to see if anything is new!

How can you help?

You probably didn't ask this. But I'm going to pretend you did anyway! I am one single person, who also has to hold down a job. The industry is now a massive, daunting place with news falling out of every orifice every second around the hour. What this means is that it is literally going to be impossible for me to get every single bit of news everywhere. I'm bound to miss something.

I fully encourage you to post news articles - using the format I have for my topic bulletpoints - in this thread or in PM to me, and I will also update them into the post. At the end of my posts, I will regularly be updating a "thank you" list to everyone who has contributed.

Yes, really appreciate your efforts, OP. I did a similar thread once for Gamescon, it was hella lot of work, but also strangely fun. Optimally would be of course to have a team of 4, always thought that Neogaf could have organized it better, but alas it always falls to someone brave and crazy enough. God speed!

This is the thread NeoGAF needs, but maybe not the thread NeoGAF deserves.

Regardless, thank you for doing this OP.

Thanks for the thread, one fix though:

A new trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3 has arrived showing combat and some expected characters. A new trailer showing new stuff will be shown at the D23 expo on July 5. (Link,Thread)

This should say July 15th.

Awesome thread and thank you SO MUCH for the updates. Had to leave in the middle of the Msft conference and this was a very easy (to read) and fast way to catch up on what I missed. Have to watch that Anthem footage again!

We're really feeling those long development cycles this year. Sony has announced a lot of shit too early so we should get some good games from them. Hopefully something cool will come from the PC Gaming Show. I hope it will be nice and long. Ubisoft, new IP pliss.

Feels like the big publishers are stagnating without developing experimental B and C budget games

Microsoft is in a really horrible situation

Very useful thread! Thanks for doing this OP!

One small correction though:

• Code Vein was shown to be an Xbox One Console launch exclusive and Xbox One X enhanced game. It seems to be a monster fighting/apocalyptic game from Bandai Namco. Anime Dark Souls Coming in 2018. (Link, Thread)

Rewatched that part and it's NOT a launch exclusive on XB1, only XB1X enhanced.
