Rewatching some of their live streams of the press conferences about last year's E3, I really did not like it. 3/4's of the people watching the stream were on twitter almost the entire time.

I remember Jeff saying they would maybe ban laptops during those. Did they do that for later conferences?

Also jeff called it that it wouldnt be at e3 this year

Yep, pretty impressive.

 

[Han Shot First]

Jeff has said that there will only be one Mac in the room this year.

For real?!! Yes! Thank you Myggen! Best news I've heard all day.

yep, that annoyed the fuck out of me.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

That looks like a Kirby-ass Kirby game. Will probably pick it up eventually, those games are always fun times.

The crew has all switched to surface books?

 

[Volotaire]

Yeh, it's much better that there is only one computer in the studio. A lot of of the crew were distracted by them during the streams.

 

[strafer]

never forget Austin during Alex Until Dawn playthrough.

 

[mnz]

Watching them watch the conference and seeing tweets from them pop up at the same time was kind of impressive. The snark comes effortless to Alex.

 

[Zaph]

yep, that annoyed the fuck out of me.

You mean you didn't enjoy Alex reading off twitter what was about to happen seconds before it appeared on stream?

 

[Han Shot First]

BTW How much of what Alex said on last week's Beastcast about TED Talks was hyperbole and how much was his actual opinion? Because I can't imagine he wouldn't have supported Patrick when he did his.

why is this whole fucking quick look about Yoshi when it's a Kirby game

Jeff says he hates Yoshi but he sure thinks about Yoshi a lot more than like... anyone

because there really isn't much to talk about past "it's a kirby game like all the others but there's a robot"

Ugh yeah that was bad. Didn't Jeff say something at some point to the effect of "Let's just wait until we see it."

It isn`t really the whole QL though.

It`s from 5 minutes into the QL to about the 10 or 11 minute mark.

I think they mostly had the best of both worlds last year, but the real craziness only occurred in the last section with Lang and co. If they had the space and time to have two sets (one interview style, one roundtableish), it could be really great.

Given that Jeff said that they were taking the couch from UPF to E3, I guess they are going with the same format again.

EDIT: The downside to the 'large crew of guests' format is that some guests talk less and get sidelined due to dominant characters. With last year's format, it's much less of an issue.

You are kind of making my point. Jeff is a fantastic interviewer, but the best part of last year was the Lang insanity where it stopped being interviews and just turned into a bunch of friends and industry types talking games.

 

[strafer]

Yes, I hope they do interviews again.

 

[NumberThree]

I'd have no problem if Jeff subs Brad in for an interview a night. Brad is great at it and i can't imagine how exhausted Jeff must be at the end of every night.

Brad could do a tech session with Cowboy and someone else.

 

[Volotaire]

I would love more of the GB crew interviewing.

 

[strafer]

I hope they get Neil Druckmann on the couch.

Is Patrick going to E3 this year? I'm pretty sure he didn't get to go last year...

Doubt it, he said hes busy with house stuff?

Sometimes a man's hate for something is so strong and violent it just has to come out, like a really bad poop

Got a 5 hour drive tomorrow that i'm splitting with the wife, might pick up kirby

this looks alright

That's awesome.

 

[SomberOwl]

Maan I would be okay with them missing a Tuesday podcast for this one week to post the predictions show before E3. I know Jeff usually goes into embargoed stuff, but we will hear them talk about all that stuff during the week. Plus there is so much stuff to watch during E3 week it would be nice to have the Bombcast right before the deluge of E3 week.

I love that Nintendo isn't even listed with all of those other companies as Closed. It's nowhere to be found

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

I just noticed that the only working TV in the post-apocalypse E3 poster is playing Yoshi's Island. Great touch!

If it's following the Rocket League stuff it would be GBWest vs. GBeast.

Hexagon, I just caught up with your introductory answers and they are so on point that I have to acknowledge that.
Welcome! (and don't rant in Off-topic threads if you want to stay)

As long as they continue the tradition of not putting a Souls game on the list I'm happy.

Thanks! That's the joke I meant to make when I was talking about "no reviews for Souls games" and myggen corrected me.
