Forums - Gaming - Update: E3 2012 Dates and Time Zone Breakdown For All Conferences

Looks like I wont be missing class this year. The timing for Microsoft and Sony is perfect.

Microsoft better impress or else I'm throwing my 360 out. Three bad E3's isn't something to shoot for. Sony is always the most consistant E3 in showing off new content and games but usually the least surprising. Nintendo flip flops from good year to bad year.

First fail of E3 goes to Sony by doing their show on 2 / 3 am for Europe.

They do it the same time every year, why is it always a surprise?

Yup, Sony is done for sure this time.



Just do what I'm doing, DVR it!!!!! Every year I record all of it. Makes me glad I added a 2tb external drive to my Fios Box.

How are they done based on their timing? They are showing E3 where it will mainly be watched. Wake up in the morning and watch the recap or record it with DVR. If the show was going on in Europe it wouldn't be so late at night, think abuot that. They should only be done based on their offerings.

It's simple really. Holding their event at 2am in Europe time means that nobody is going to be able to stay up late enough. It's a well known fact that there is a drought in Europe, and that means nobody is going to be able to brew coffee or tea to help them stay up.

This takes away from the average fan's ability to participate in the fun, thereby lowering overall feeling of inclusion, and maybe not today and maybe not tomorrow, it will result in a widespread feeling of disassociation with Sony and subsequent selling of all ps3s and vitas.

Mark my words, this is the first megaton of E3 2012.

You're a bad cat >:(

Hopefully, Nintendo delivers another E3 2010, or E3 2006.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

The show isn't meant for Europe. Its an American convention that got so big that it is shown worldwide. E3 is the only Megaton of 2012. If nothing happens at E3 at this stage in the game in most cases you wont find bigger news at any other convention. It's not a fail on Sony, Nintendo or Microsoft for being in the morning. DVR it and when you wake up, it will be there or get the feed on Gametrailers, IGN or Gamespot.

Sony tends to announce a lot of things outside of E3 though, like at Gamescom


Didn't notice. Thanks if its true though. This whole 4.19.2012 thing is exciting. I just want to see GOW 4 and the suspense can be over. Sony is good at giving their fans heart attacks over the obvious (LOL).
