E3 2018 - A year of Mobile Games, Dancing Pandas, and Homeless Banjo Players - Did E3 2018 make all your dreams/nightmares come true?

[_blank_]

OG OP:
As of this writing, we are about a month out from when E3 2018 kicks off, and once again, gamers from around the world will watch the conferences like little children might watch the Christmas tree in late December. And very much like those children, we hope this year the jolly old elf will appear and deliver us every toy on our lists, and not be our alcoholic stepdads after one too many bourbon eggnogs in an ill-fitting Santa suit.

What are your predictions for E3 2018. Any game reveals are you looking forward to? Any conferences you think will be complete garbage fires? How much will EA's Andrew Wilson look like a low-rent Satan this year?

Obligatory:

 

[Black Waltz]

I kinda want to see that new smash bros game

 

[Clintonberg]

Do you think Havoc is still out there taking hostages?

 

[MrTroll]

The last time an E3 press conference was worth paying attention to, you had to download a low-quality WMV file of it from Gametrailers and watch it in your DivX player.

XCOM 2 TLE turns out to be some localization update instead of a new expansion.

 

[Scratch This Nut]

I just want Animal Crossing for the Switch, goddammit.

 

[Ruin]

I'll be mad as hell if CDPR doesn't at least show gameplay footage for Cyberpunk because that game is like a year away from officially being vaporware.

 

[TheClorax]

I want some news about Prime 4.

 

[Agent of Z.O.G.]

Where's the 60% of e3 is battle royale games" option

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

I may have wanted to go to ones of these back in the early 2000's, but there are too many people that go these days that I would like to punch in the face.

Man i was so sad about last year not because the game announcements where bad but because everyone played it so safe with their conference. I want my shitty cringe back. I want someone to dap on stage i want some old guy to fuck up talking about something. I want stupid pointless little bits.
half the fun of e3 is all the weird stuff. so please give me the stupid weird stuff this year.

but on games I want more info on kingdom hearts 3 and maybe animal crossing which i know is not going to happen because of smash being the spot light for Nintendo

 

[Kiwi Jeff]

Where's the voting option for everything being a battle royale game?

 

[Takayuki Yagami]

XCOM 2 TLE turns out to be some localization update instead of a new expansion.

I’d actually be amazed if that was the case. My understanding is that Firaxis really shat the bed with the lated Civ xpack, so X-COM is the more valuable property at this point.

 

[ASoulMan]

The only thing I'm hyped for is Nintendo's presentation and Lemme Smash Bros. Everybody else I'm either not as hyped for and don't even want to bother with (*cough* EA AND MICROSOFT).

 

[Pointandlaugh]

Sony's presentation will be trailers for 1 hour with some orchestra at the start.

 

[Sable]

If I don't expect anything will happen I can't be disappointed.

No-one get my hopes up.

 

[Piss Clam]

I'm looking forward to:

MechWarrior5 - please be good.
Bards Tale IV - I think I will be disappointed.
Phoenix Point - If this is the only one that is good then I'll be happy for the year.

Why do you losers watch this? It's non-gameplay footage trailers of games that won't be out for 18 months. How do you get excited for this. Don't you know how this works by now? They get you all riled up, and get youtube assholes to "talk" about their trailer reactions (they couldn't care less its just for views). All in the hopes you dopes keep pre-ordering..

Stop giving a fuck about games until they actually come out. You're like a guy who gets a match on tinder and immediately goes out and buys a wedding ring. You know this is just the marketing crews of major AAA companies trying to set off ur autism, to sell you the 9th iteration of a game you've already played. I'm probably being optimistic, but if you don't try to crucify a presenter for "not being a real gamer" I'll count it as an improvement.

I can't wait for EA to show an hour of Madden and FIFA that looks like last year.
