Giant Bomb E3 2012

shit I know its bombcast I listen to the podcast but this is E3 damn

talk about the games and impressions but now they are talking about what New York mattresses

They will get there.

EDIT: See. And really the Usher talk WAS indicative of the actual conference.
 
I feel the same way. The ol' X3F crew just isn't cutting it. Not interested.

I can't describe how disappointed I was when I went back to Joystiq after not being interested in the industry for a long time and finding that the original podcast crew had disbanded.

Pourin' Blueberry Muffin Tops on the curb for Chris, Justin, and Ludwig.
 
Very disappointed at them not even acknowledging the issue at all. Brad even typed in chat "Nothing I can do" IT'S CALLED "FUCKING TELL THE VIDEO GUYS SO THEY CAN FIX IT"

Maybe there's nothing the video guys can do?

Chris and Justin went to Vox Games, which is The Verge's gaming site. But that was months ago and I haven't heard a thing about them, so I wonder if that fell apart or something before it even launched.
 
Hes right, if you don't own a 360 by now then odds are very good that you won't run out to buy one, but the kinect and tv stuff may attract people

They are hoping to get on CNN/FOX news and appeal to non-gamers


Even though thats not really the audience for this event


And that has been repeated a lot in the past couple years
 
Wait seriously, brad knows about the problem and he's not telling anyone? Speak, man, for god's sake speak!
 
I don't find the stutter all THAT annoying.

Also, just did a quick google and it turns out Chris Grant is with Polygon now! Didn't know that. Guess Justin is getting the old band back together.

It's really just MS's age old dream of ruling the family living room. They finally figured out how with Xbox instead of PCs.

Mmmhmm, I remember all the set top box talk in the N64 vs Playstation days


Its the goal of MS, Apple, Google, and used to be Sony before they started losing money hand over fist
 
Ryan brings up a good point. This E3 has been fairly guilty of "EXCLUSIVE" gameplay reveals on the networks. If you only watch the conference, you miss some big stuff. Kinda silly.
 
Is anyone experiencing stuttering on the iOS app? I'm running that, only problem is that the stream stops every 15 minutes or so and I have to restart it. Otherwise it's butter. Just putting that out there in case it helps

Yeah. I don't have one yet, because I was waiting for a price drop or a good sale on a bundle, but I don't really find a lot of stuff on the system (other than the stuff I found cheap in the bargain bin) very enticing. They have to go after people who are more prone to invest in Kinect and stuff now.

And fuck this Smart Glass shit. I seriously doubt that Apple will let it fly.
Why do you even need all of that stuff to immerse yourself in a TV show while you're watching it, anyway? I usually do extra reading after I watch an episode of something.
 
If smart glass is actually cool and useful Apple wouldn't want to give them a reason to get a W8 tablet because it enhances their games and an ipad doesnt
