DANGERMAN Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Bit disingenuous to unsolicited add coal to the hype train then ask people not to spoil things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craymen Edge Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Don't spoil the advertising, people. I'm being facetious, but this hobby makes me laugh occasionally. It's such consumerist, corporate apologist nonsense it does give me pause sometimes, to wonder what the fuck I'm doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 A leak is a surprise in of itself. I have no idea why some insist on the reveal being on the publisher's terms. It's sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendo Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 My four days off from work nicely coincide with those dates so I can probably watch most of it, while making notes of how wrong me and Ben were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea why some insist on the reveal being on the publisher's terms. It's sad. Because it's way cooler to hear a familiar tune at the beginning of a trailer you didn't see coming than just randomly stumbling upon the words "new F-Zero announced!" while browsing a forum. As mediocre as it was, Metroid Other M had a great trailer and gave away its identity with the words "any objections, lady?" as a nod to fans before changing gears and making clear it was a Metroid game. Those few seconds were totally worth it and a leak would have messed it up. There's absolutely nothing sad about that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I also like some surprises at E3. It's fun to get excited and have this huge burst of information and then feel all tuckered out afterwards because of the fist pumping and aww yissing. Its also nice when i know about something and see more of it. E3 is nice. I like it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I just don't think I've ever had a reveal ruined by a leak. If I do see a leak sourced by someone reliable its not gonna stop my interest in the reveal itself as that's where you'll see something more concrete and detailed, and that's the interesting part. The times where they just reveal a title card it might as well just be a Tweet as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Leaks are fun, mostly so you can see how accurate or not they were after the fact. Like the Canadian Wallmart leak was spot on last year, bar the lack of Splinter Cell, so there must be an interesting story there. There’s always leaks, there’s always fake leaks and there’s always total surprises. I think all fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that as a different thing. I don't look out for spoilers for films and stuff but I'd rather not see them. But if I do I'm not so precious about it but I get why people would go out of thier way to avoid it. But this is marketing. I just don't think the hype they concoct is important. You can still feel excited about things not out yet without towing the markets line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikzilla Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Tim Roger's (my best mate) over at Kotaku has made the best E3 predictions video I've seen this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
