I am shocked! I woke up this morning expecting to see a bunch of leaks (like years past) and their is nothing. Bravo twitter a few hours left and E3 is still kind of a mystery.

A chunk of GB crew is at E3. Also, it's GB, the site is borderline dead 4 days a week.

It pains me to say that the second part of your sentence is too true.
@algertman: There have been a ton of leaks and new info: The Wii U controller update and the system's social functionality, the info on Sound Shapes being PS3 and Vita cross compatible, the teaser leak about Alan Wake 2, etc. GB just isn't on the ball it seems.
I've been playing games since I was 5 (1984) and I don't find the E3 press conferences funny in any way. I just don't understand what a lot of people see in them. To me, they are only good for stirring up hype for a new game that I never knew about.

So the only value you see in E3 press conferences is their express purpose? Well they must be doing something right, then.
Am I wrong that the GB crew had videos before and after every press conference last year? I distinctly remember them metting outside before the conferences and talking about what they expect and then meeting afterward.
What the heck is going on with the major slacking? But hey, at least I can rest assured that they spent hours last week in front of green screens pantomiming for "bits." Dudes, I all I want is you guys to stand in front of a camera often, maybe talk over some game footage from time to time, and podcast, all in a timely fashion. Spend less time playing with fucking toys. Take for of you and get in front of a camera an start talking about goddamn E3.
I also think I'm regressing in my old age. Instead of being hyped for the latest new graphical achievements and gameplay, I am scouring Gog.com to play some of the classics that I missed all those years ago. I think I may have more fun with Kings Quest 4 than I will with some of the new releases.

Yeah... that didn't happen. There were a few post-press conference wrap up videos, but it was nowhere near before and after every press conference.
@Kyle: I think you are wrong. Maybe it wasn't every press conference but I distinctly remember the guys meeting before and after some of of the major conferences like the Nintendo. They would be talking about how the conference just let out and they and their thoughts and how they are now getting ready to go play games.
But regardless, at least I got to watch them lick a screwdriver (litterally) for an hour and half last week as "premium" content and then Vinny promised to spend "at least an entire day if things go well" editing it. That sure was a better use of their time then, I don't know, recording some quick looks on games (old or new).
I don't know what the worst part of that show was: people clapping at "innovations" brought out 10 years ago, Usher's half-hearted and out of tune performance, or the moron who introduced Xbox Music.
All I do know is that I'm sorry all of those press people had to sit through all of that to get "news" for their sites. Everything that happened in that show could have been released by Microsoft through maybe 3 emails...

Absolutely no clue what you're talking about or how it has anything to do with what I said.
