I was so on board after the first reveal, and then jumped ship immediately when I found out what the gameplay was. Hearing they've revamped it, I'm interested again, but I will definitely be waiting for reviews (and Quick Looks) before purchasing.
You need to make a point of hitting up the Waypoint crew at some point. I understand that, for one Natalie Watson, this is one of those "first E3" deals.
I used to have stickers naming most of my electronics (keeping all the phones and laptops straight), based on old/random sci-fi nonsense, and I'd imagine the stink-eye Abby got for "Giant Bomb" was the exact same one I got for "Bomb #20". Those security people really don't have much of a sense of humour - me being a kinda messy dude with a big, shaggy beard probably didn't help.
@mentokthemindtaker: I'd guess a big part of what everyone else was up to was "not getting in the production crew's way". I've never done an event like E3, but I do know that someone who doesn't know what he's doing is more of a hindrance than a help - I'd have got the furniture set up and then gotten scarce.
@daniel_newton: I'd say, give the guy the benefit of the doubt, and assume his tone was mostly in response to the insult, rather than the opinion. I don't get mad when someone likes something different than me, but I do when someone sets out to insult me over it. A second person being an asshole doesn't counter out the first, but hey, we're all human.
No joke, whatsoever: I would absolutely, 100%, watch a "Dan goes back in time to use future-knowledge to become rich and powerful, but has no idea how anything actually works" movie. That legitimately has some serious potential.
