Weird excuse to cancel a show, Covid was a real problem for the last three shows this is just quitting.

All those poor displaced THOTS they're probably all on onlyfans now.

 

[Yamisan]

Wasn't this announced months ago?

 

[Jaybe]

Jokes on Geoff, at this rate there will soon be no third parties.

 

[Belthazar]

I completely forgot about this and about E3 itself tbh... I don't think it'll ever come back tbh.

 

[anothertech]

2023 eh?

This is now the official E3 booth babe thread.

Well, at least Microsoft will have an event. If they cancel that one I'll be very sad.

People can say what they want but I miss how a few days out of the year there was a big event where there be a lot of game announcements. We can all gather round on streams and either get excited at big game announcements/trailers, or laugh at whatever stupidity was unfolding. It was always entertaining watching the SuperCut of these conferences afterward. Some of the best gaming memes were born from E3. It was good times and I'll miss it.

I agree with you, fun times. I was at the office watching the stream in the phone, when Killer Instinct was announced, I was about to scream!

 

[Efren is G.O.A.T.]

But I love E3!!! I never went but I would religiously watch the press conferences and read all the updates online. It was Gamer's Christmas for me!

 

[ParaSeoul]

fuck where are we gonna see the new silent hill!?

 

[Tomofdahook17]

Wait... I am I nuts or was this already known. I thought this was announced back in like January or so and that's why there is this Summer game's showcase taking it's place. If this is true and they are bringing it back in 2023 I am beyond hype.

 

[DragoonWalker]

Big in person cons like this don't make much sense anymore in a 24/7 online news cycle. It only use to be necessary because that was the only way to make big announcements and get all eyes on your upcoming products. Today you can just set any ol' time and date for a stream and people will just show up. More so post covid when even more people have gotten use to it.

Now that's not to say I prefer our current way, in fact I enjoyed it much more when a whole bunch of big announcements gave me a rush of excitement like nothing else.

 

[cinnamonandgravy]

sad news.

the cringe must flow.

 

[March Climber]

I know OP is out of date, but I vote for leaving the thread open. It seems there are people who still don't know that Summer Games Fest is the new E3. Can't wait for more confusion in one month amongst posters who haven't logged on in a year.

 

[TLZ]

The ESA adds that the 2022 showcase has been cancelled so the organization can "focus its cringe" on the 2023 show.

Fixed.

 

[mckmas8808]

Good. E3 is not E3 without booth babes

It kinda was E3 without booth babes.

 

[Negotiator101]

This is old news, we already talked about this. Did you just wake up OP?

 

[pqueue]

just cancel it permanently at this point. no one cares, and the big dogs can do their own shows at any time they want.

I wonder why Jimbo decided to kill E3... maybe he is working for Geoff.
