Giant Bomb @ E3 2017: <>

I'm really annoyed that the Youtube archive was nuked, my connection hates the site right now and I was really hoping to watch this in the background at work :(
 
Listening to the day 1 podcast at work this morning and that Forza dude totally cannot shut the PR off. Also, had no clue he was their community manager. Looking forward to listening the final segment again.
 
The battlefront actress named drop GAF

Awesome

She was a good guest

She was great, but understandably a little over excited.

Luke Smith was cool, too. But I wish Jeff had asked him about his weird tweet where he asked if Geoff's Keighley reporting of the $499 price for XOX was a "designed leak".

That's just a bit of press still inside Luke's body coming out. Happens ever so often, especially when he gets snarky.
 
Man, that Phil interview was good. He's one of my favorite people in the industry. Seeing this interview with him, then watching an interview with Reggie, it's crazy the difference between the two.

Phil might have sold me on a One X simply based off his candid responses. I simply like the dude, and I like what he's trying to do over at Xbox.

To be fair, Phil is in a much better spot to answer questions about the Xbox brand than Reggie is in to answer questions about Nintendo. Spencer is the head of Xbox as a whole, whereas Reggie is the President and COO of Nintendo of America.

I guess. But replace Phil with whoever you want from Nintendo, the top of the top dogs, you still won't get an interview like that.

The only person from Sony I could ever see doing a similar interview would have been Jack Tretton. Shawn Layden sure as hell isn't.
 
Listening to Patrick's interview with Phil after the on with Jeff and Phil answers a lot of the same questions word for word the same. It's kind of freaky tbh. Not that I think Phil is "fake" in any way, but his answers seem so scripted, probably because he's had to repeat these responses to every outlet for some time.
 
I'm going to be out for most of the day, going to a concert. Hopefully I'll be able to make it before the interviews start. Apart from the MS one on day 1, the rest have been amazing.
 
tbh I think that was a really good contrast compared to GB's more measured approach, it was cool seeing how amped up she was about doing something Star Wars related

Plus she was clearly genuine.

How often do you have a famous, attractive woman who is tied to video games and is actually part of the culture and not just 'playing up to geeks'?

She filled the gap Aisha Tyler left pretty well.
 
So now that E3 2017 is over who is making the E3 2018 thread? What do you think we will see?

Strafer, please. There are more pressing issues to discuss.

What's gonna be GOTY? Zelda or Mario.
Don't come with that indie early access zombie game PUBG.

There are a whole lot of things to unpack in this post.
 
Why are yall saying Vinny is gonna leave? Is it a meme? You guys are freaking me out

It's a combination of:

- Vinny mentioning on a podcast that after Abby is comfortable he might leave (or something like that)
- GiantBomb pulling this kind of thing in the past with Austin
- It being a meme

All I know is it bothers me.
 
Watching the Day 2 Live right now.

really loved the entire Phil Spencer interview segment. Dude comes off as really genuine once you separate him from the PR speak. One on one, on the couch, he seems like a cool gamer dude.
 
guess' on tonight's guests?

Obviously: Lang, Boyes, (Drake?)

Maybes: Cliffy B, Yosp,

Not happening but would be rad: Michel Ansel, Reggie

Why would you even want that? Reggie is a walking marketing machine. Jeff would get nothing meaningful out of him.

It's annoying that this stuff keeps being joked about, and also having listened to most of that podcast episode, I also don't agree that was the implication- it was more that he would feel ok leaving if the site wasn't going in a direction he/the crew liked. Abby's barely started, besides.

Furthermore as I said some pages back, if anyone's leaving from now on it'd probably not be announced at E3/GOTY because of this bad connotation that's building.
 
did I hear right, were there two mcrelosoeoroys on the couch? they are not related are they?

Sorry for the spelling, I cant spell it.
 
All this someone leaving talk, can we please just
