    The E3 Thread

    [ Schedule of E3 2013 Press Conferences ]
    All times are local to Pacific time (PDT - America/Los Angeles), where E3 is held.

    Microsoft XBOX: A New Generation of Games Revealed - Monday, June 10, 2013 @ 9:30am
    Electronic Arts' The Download 2013 Preview - Monday, June 10, 2013 @ 1:00pm
    Ubisoft E3 2013 - Monday, June 10, 2013 @ 3:00pm
    Sony PS4 - See It First - Monday, June 10, 2013 @ 6:00pm
    Nintendo Direct @ E3 2013 - Tuesday, June 11, 2013 @ 7:00am

    Alternatively, aside from direct Live Streams from the publishers themselves, the following Gaming Media outlets also have live streams or coverage of the events.
    - GameTrailers.com/e3 & SpikeTV
    - IGN.com/e3
    - GameSpot.com/e3


    13 hours to go until E3 is upon us, what do you want to see? Are you going to be there?

    I'll look from time to time, while I'm at work, but I'm not really expecting nor looking for anything.

    I'll be watching it, I knew calling out of work for the entire week (minus Saturday and Sunday) would be useful and I did it without even realizing E3 was this week.
    Hey everyone

    Keep a stream up in the background if you can.

    Does anyone have the link for the stream? I've never watched it before so unsure how they do it. Is it multiple streams for multiple areas or is there a stream that 'covers it all' available like Blizzcon?

    Thanks

    gametrailers covers the whole thing i believe and you can watch the Microsoft conference on spike tv if you get it.

    I'll watch what i can but unfortunately i work when the Sony conference is on which is the one i really wanted to see.

    There's going to be a ton of streams. There will be the press confrences from Sony/Microsoft/EA/Ubisoft tomorrow, and you should be able to find them on just about any gaming news site. Beyond that, the more video oriented sites like GameTrailers or maybe Revision 3 will have streams going, and some companies like Square Enix will be running streams periodically throughout the show.

    There were hardly any games shown on the last few E3s, and the new consoles will have even less... I'm only going to watch because of faint hopes for some vaporware games to reappear.
    That's why you need me.... Need someone to punish you for your sins.

    I will be, but I'm not expecting too much quite honestly. Maybe I'll be wrong.

    I'm probably just going to watch the Sony/Xbone press conferences and the Nintendo live feed. Then just casually check some gaming news sites (probably this forum too :P)

    Am I right in saying the press conferences are on today? Honestly all I am interested in is the Witcher 3, Squareinx(hoping for a KH3 release even though a member of the copy said that won't be annouced until after Kh2.5 remix comes out next year) and maybe some game play of the new MGS game.

    Out side of that only microsofts press conference currently interests me, as I assume they have something decent to show to make up for all the crap. Might watch a repeat of sonys as its on late and couldn't give a toss about EA or Ubisoft

    E3 is 22 hours 30 mins away not 13, it goes off US time since it's held in the US not where you live otherwise E3 would be on in a few hours for me.

    Fill me inn, what are these conventions for. Gameplay of non-released games, we already know will come out, or?

    Not quit sure what to hope/look for at these things. Or will developers actually tell us about new releases and show gameplay off the work so far?

    Uhh, 1st conference is MS at 9AM PST, which is 6hr 22 minutes away as of this moment. E3 starts at 8AM if I remember correctly.

    Ah right forgot that technically is 11th-13th, despite conferences on 10th.

    Yea the Microsoft Conference is technically ahead of the 'official' beginning of E3. I think Sony is that night, then Nintendo is the next day during the start of the conference?

    Anyway, no, I'll be sleeping. I'll watch the conferences later, then watch the commentary from a couple sites I like, and wait for the actual devs to show off their new stuff for the new consoles. Love to see some new open-world-ish PC games as well beyond Witcher 3 and... that's it.

    I'm hoping both MS and Sony will have playable versions of their consoles at the show with demos for games each.

    Nope I won't watch it.
    The amount of unnecessary information that will be talked about will drive me crazy.

    I'll just watch the recaps of games tomorrow night.
    We stopped searching for monsters under our beds when we realized that they were inside us.

    Tell me something, my friend. You ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?
