Forums - Gaming - What are your predictions for Major Nelson's E3 surprise.

Major Nelson said he will be doing something at E3 that's never been done before:

What are your thoughts on what that is? Please be respectful and don't say things like "it will be a "Red Expo"-dominoodle because A live orchestra secretly armed with crossbows to slaughter the audience at Hryb's signal while he goes to whisper "Yoshida-san sends his regards" in Phil Spencer's ear before stabbing him in the gut?" -jmeyer2039  ' or that he will commit harry carry on stage or something.

I have a few predictions myself. I think he will probably do something with hologram technology or something with that rumored kinect room projector tech that was released awhile ago http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/illumiroom/ Tho I think that may have been a red herring of sorts and it seems unlikely since they are unbundling kinect.

He could also go all Oprah and give everyone there a free Xb1 with kinect and some game but again that's unlikely.

My main prediction however would definitely be the most interesting and entertaining. I think he's going to do what's never been done and troll the entire game industry and every gamer during E3. He's going to do this by showing up on stage with Phil Fish and Marcus "Annoyed Gamer" Beer and reveal that not only is Fez 2 not cancelled but will be coming exclusively to XBO and that their entire internet feud was staged. It would troll everyone and would open up discussion about how people horrendously mistreat developers online. 

For those that don't know/remember there was a huge fight between the two which ended up with Phil Fish canceling Fez 2 and leaving the industry. http://playeressence.com/phil-fish-tells-gametrailers-marcus-annoyed-gamer-to-kill-himself/ http://www.destructoid.com/phil-fish-has-meltdown-on-twitter-rashly-cancels-fez-ii-258869.phtml 

I always felt that Phil Fish's behavior and ultimate decision tho understandable was a bit fishy. Then there is the fact that his twitter picture seen in twitter screenshots in the first link is of Andy Kaufman. Heck the guy even trys to look like him. So to me this seems like something Andy Kaufman would do and it would be an homage to him and it would send a message to the industry and gamers and it would give Major Nelson an opportunity to do something that's never been done at E3. it would surly create a ton of press and buzz for the game and the console.

 

What do you gamer guys and gamer gals think? What are your predictions?

I still think he's going to strip for us...
But really, I don't know. I wouldn't get too set on something, though. It's PR talk and there are a whole lot of things that haven't been done at E3.

I would have guessed a Kinect thing like your hologram, but with the unbundling I don't know if they will keep that a real focus in the show.

LOL yeah a strip would be good. That was my thinking behind it. i don't think it is very likely. Still possible tho. Who knows maybe Michael Jackson will show up again to do another show? It's a good prediction tho. Thanks for sharing it :D.

Announce a game that is actually better with kinect.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

An E3 surprise? A small part of me feels like they'll reveal a handheld mobile gaming device thingy but somehow I doubt it.

Perhaps it'll actually be something to do with the conference layout as opposed to the actual content shown...maybe having someone on stage?

At any rate, only a few weeks to go now.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

FFXIII coming to Xbox One.



He said it was just a small thing he's been working on so I don't expect anything major.



They are doing their press conference in the form of an interactive sitcom.
