we are expecting way too much for E3.

I just don't see how they can outdo the FFXIII announcement of last year.

what difference as a gamer does it make for you to hear a game announcement at E3 or a random weak ??

Maybe Microsoft has been saving their allowance to buy Ubisoft.

@psrock

actually not really since EVERY major company has said this will be the biggest E3 ever.



I think there are two strategies to E3. You either go in with a big secret, drop the bomb and hope everybody freaks out, or you leak/announce info before the show to generate buzz so that everybody comes to the show wanting to know more about your product.

I would guess that the first strategy only really works for genuine megatons, while the latter is a great way to get some people's attention before the explosions go off and that's all people can talk about. I haven't seen any pre-E3 announcements that look megaton caliber yet.

They should go for EA and then pull a ghostbusters on the entire EA sports series.

What developer did MS buy?



@theThunder
to me it feels like this last week was as much announcements as last years E3, well, not quite, but still a lot of stuff announced.

I just hope they are holding some stuff back. If not, E3 would just be like any other week.

I predict major meltdown after being disapointed this year.

I guess they want to make a good E3 this time around.
