Geoff Keighley hyping this years E3 as the Best One Ever!
- Thread starter Armadilo
- Start date
Same could be say to any entertainment medium.
They regained their composure. They're professionals.
But still Geoff is a great Host and i´m happily looking forward to his show.

He kinda looks like clerics from Equlibrium
The leaks come in great numbers. But you just wait, your mind will still be blown.
He probably got an invite for this:

i mean, normally id say hes just hyping up his own show, but that "ive been to 22 e3s and thisll be the best one" tweets a little too much if he was just doing that.

Yep, it has always been this way. Don't recall a Company showing off a game that wasn't even fully funded yet though.

Geoff and hype go hand in hand, but I'm sure it will be a great E3.

Just to put the 22 E3s comment in context though, he then says 'Looking over our show rundown tonight, we have'
He's referring to their show having the best lineup, not necessarily referring to press conferences and whatnot
Just putting some perspective on it
It's Geoff's perogative to get viewer numbers up, after all
Their happiness is absolutely disgusting.

How many white whale games are even left?
Half Life 3?
Crash?
Agent?
Age of Empires?
Silent Hills?
Beyond Good and Evil?
Phantom Dust?
Prey 2?
Megaman Legends 3?
Chrono Break?
Final Fantasy 6 remake?
To a lesser extent...
Left 4 Dead 3?
Red Dead Redemption?
I expect we'll see a lot of new IP and Star Wars this year. I'm happy with that.

I'm a huge fan of Geoff but he always says things like this for every event. Let's face it, nothing is ever topping last year.
The only thing embarrassing is your post mate.

I love Geoff and I have no doubts this will be a great E3 and I know he's excited.
That said. He always says this about events. It's best not to get your expectations too out of touch. Geoff is a good guy but he's also there to hype and he's great with words. He'll make you think something is there by how he says and answers things

What's the reference to 'white whales'? Rarity?

Well my most anticipated Zelda ever is going to be shown so yeah I can agree.

I was wondering, but can we even put Agent in there?
I mean, didn't we literally just get a logo and a few empty concept arts - it's not like it's been a long running franchise or as a new I.P even offered any promise
I'm always a bit iffy about that one
They don't consider themselves journalists.
I was kinda lukewarm on 2015's (The 'big three' reveal didn't excite me, though I get they hype), so at least for me it could top 2016.
Best ever? Not likely. Maybe if Nintendo was showing the NX and Sony/MS had some new ace cards ready to go. Right now this E3 feels like it'll be what you expect out of a pile of company strategy meetings, and not some crazy exec going 'We must beat them at all costs!'.
Sheer amount of Mobile at it dampens my excitement as well.

I like Geoff a lot, and I'm super stoked, but I'm sure this has been mentioned: take what he says with a grain of salt. Remember when he hyped up one of the surprises at VGAs and it turned out to be a Dead Mouse performance, lol

Really, can't stand?
Geoff is pretty harmless and seems a decent guy all round. Not sure what he's done to deserve you not being able to stand him.

Crash, Kojima production teaser, FromSoftware new IP, God of war.
Still can't beat FFVIIR,Shenmue,The Last guardian.
Edit: RDR2 as well and pretty far fetched HL3.

Geoff is awesome and unquestionably the best host in the industry. He's also a hype master, though. It's harmless and I adore his enthusiasm, but I'll temper my expectations just a touch.
Hope to be pleasantly surprised!

Huh? Do we have all to share the same opinion that last year's E3 showing by Sony was the best thing ever?
Because I certainly don't. I think it's probably one of the worst, and at some point made me feel pissed off (they spoiled the beginning of Arkham Knight for me. Bunch of morons)
For me, Microsoft has been killing it in the past years with their E3 showing. Showing both games coming soon and some others taking a while. The only E3 that I was hyped by Sony's conference was 2014's and that was because of Bloodborne and nothing else.
have they? i know some people on gaf seem to be scrambling for it to come back, but sony seem relatively quiet on the matter. i can't imagine it would be worth the effort and money making a new one. i mean, ratchet has been a surprising success story, but it's still not lighting the world on fire sales wise, and ultimately it's a shooter...which crash isn't...it's a platformer...a dead genre on anything but nintendo consoles.
i don't get why people want a new one tbh. maybe as a cheap digital title on PSN it could be successful both commercially and critically? something low budget and low risk. but a AAA crash game just sounds like throwing money in a fire to me. if i was sony i wouldn't even consider it.

I don't think there will ever come a day where I admire a man for hyping up a big corporate event.

Bahahahahaha. That is brilliant. In all seriousness, there is no way they can top Sony last year. It can't be done. Now, if Half-Life 3, Left 4 Dead 3 and Crash by a 1st-Party Studio came to light, then yes, it has the potential, but those won't happen.

I didn't have any hype for E3, I thought it was going to pass without me noticing anything more than a few threads and lackluster announcements.
But now it draws near and the hype, long believed dead, stirs within me. I have the entirety of the next week off work. I have a new data plan that allows near unlimited streaming. All my original plans fell trough. So it seems that I'll be here, F5:ing till the servers die, saving gifs and messing up my sleep schedule. In other words, My body is ready for E3.
