[b]What is E3?[/b] If you don't know what E3 is, then E3 is short for Electronic Entertainment Expo, it is an Expo held every year around May-June, thought it has been staying in June lately. Big companies such as Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony and EA announce new games and sometimes new consoles.

[B]RUMORS[/B] Crash Bandicoot Returns [t]http://i.imgur.com/rSsGwCW.jpg[/t] (Most likely fake as the text, logo and rating are tilted a bit.) So discuss E3, share bingo cards, news, leaks and rumors (which may end up in the OP). If you have a mumble, teamspeak, skype, google hangout, or anything like that, feel free to PM me (I suggest to PM me so I can link it here) and post it in the thread so people who wants to hang out with other FPers at E3 can. I asked some friends if I should make the thread this early or not and while some said no, I decided to make one either when a big rumor happens (in this case, Crash Bandicoot) or the same time as last year, 25th of May.

No Crying in baseball

Strafe has 40 rooms that are pieced together? That's not exactly a lot.

finally a video game

more blood paint games

I do not care about this game at all. Is there a reason this is here?

[media]http://www.twitch.tv/pcgamer[/media] yo

This (Strafe) looks really... average. Doesn't look that special.

The Strafe trailer hyped it up way more than it should have been.

[QUOTE=AimlessGiant;47985224]I do not care about this game at all. Is there a reason this is here?[/QUOTE] that's what im saying, why are they showing off games i personally dont care about

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;47985226]This (Strafe) looks really... average. Doesn't look that special.[/QUOTE] I'm mostly excited for the speedrunning - it's going to have strafe jumping from quake 3... or at least, a variant of it.

Anything interesting happened yet in this stream?

[QUOTE=Raptors!;47985234]that's what im saying, why are they showing off games i personally dont care about[/QUOTE] I should have worded it better. Why does anyone care about Strafe?

[QUOTE=RejectedPost;47985241]Anything interesting happened yet in this stream?[/QUOTE] GOW Ultimate on PC.

pillars of eternity eh? never heard of it till now

C'mon Lebron get your shit together

Oh man, this is going to last much longer than I expected. It's past 4 AM here :v:

[QUOTE=RejectedPost;47985241]Anything interesting happened yet in this stream?[/QUOTE] half life 3 has been mentioned [I]several[/I] times

Pillars of Eternity is fantastic and all... but I never really found the world too interesting. Maybe I just need to play more.

The fact Strafe is all procedural kills any interest I would have in it

I always wondered if Fergus was gay

I walk into the stream and all I see are Game of Thrones spoilers. I see the Twitch chat hasn't changed...

[QUOTE=RejectedPost;47985254]I walk into the stream and all I see are Game of Thrones spoilers. I see the Twitch chat hasn't changed...[/QUOTE] never read twitch chat

[QUOTE=usaokay;47985256]American Truck Simulator[/QUOTE]I'm legitimately hyped about this.

Guys, does anyone know when is Bohemia Interactive coming up?

Pillars was a pretty great spiritual successor, but the ruleset just didn't lend itself toward engaging and strategic combat after a while, and the loot wasn't very interesting.

[QUOTE=WitheredGryphon;47985232]The Strafe trailer hyped it up way more than it should have been.[/QUOTE] I don't think Strafe will be [I]bad[/I], but if anyone out there tries to tell you that a trailer without significant gameplay will never [I]really[/I] sell a game, just point them at that Strafe kickstarter video. If they just showed nothing but the gameplay they had, they'd have gotten nowhere near the amount of recognition.

[QUOTE=Gwoodman;47985257]never read twitch chat[/QUOTE] I don't intend to but "x died" repeated thirty times a second tends to get caught in your peripheral vision whether you like it or not. Whenever I spend any amount of time away from Twitch or follow smaller streamers I tend to forget how awful the chat is.

Hahahaha the twitch chat is amazingly cringy

I just have the stream in fullscreen. Not like a chat with 175k+ people in it is ever going to be worth looking at.
