I got what you're saying, all good

Like I mentioned Sega and some other companies actually wanted to do something. Honestly they still can, but they just need a new strategy. These guys only job is to figure out a new format and I won't say it simple, but man it's been years and no dice. Sad.

It's not just games either, a big photography show in New York changed formats and it was such a disaster it got canceled as well.. after the first revision got canceled. Welp.

Sigh...imho, there should not not be an E3

At least I have my memories of bring there in Dreamcast heyday, random trip with two friends no car and have to hitchhike in LA. Those were the days 😂

The industry in my opinion is making a fool of itself. They're letting the biggest publishers hubris take down what once was a great show and what could be again. Sega even wanted to attend, and they are not a small publisher. Then they pulled out because everybody else is jumping ship.

And what is the replacement? Random corny shows when most of the publishers don't even have their shit together.

IGN summer of gaming was absolute shit last year. I won't even bother tuning in this year. The interviews were at some point so bad nobody had anything to say.

You have the game awards which is generally a couple of stars and 100 trailers and it's much much better.

Maybe there's more insight out there, but I don't get it. Every industry has their trade shows and celebration and presenting their wares to the industry and the buying public. But we're getting just a bunch of random YouTube videos which we get all through the year anyway?

Trash.
