I think it's almost guarenteed Microsoft's conference is going to blow chunks. The thing I'm most looking forward to is the possibilty of Hideo Kojima unveiling Project Orge(MGS5?). I miss Kojima E3 trailers. To quote Liquid Ocelot, It's been too long. Otherwise, really, I just want some good ole surprises for once. I miss how the press conferences were used to drop big bombshell game announcements that no one knew of or expected. I expect Sony to have the best conference, though who knows if Nintendo might have a bit of flare this year if they'll actually use the show to focus on the HARDCORE(the people who are watching the friggin' conferences in the first place) instead of casual, they might kick some ass.

Btw, also looking forward to David Cage revealing his team's next game.

I expect EA to be good, they seem to be hated a lot but they release a lot of great games that people like. Like Capcom.

Drac - Cheers for the thread. Looking forward to all the coverage. Aside from the time links you put in, I'm stealing these infographics from NeoGAF because it's good for timings at short notice.

This early pre-E3 news thing is getting out of hand though. Konami, SquareEnix, and Nintendo all throwing out major info and details up to half a week early. Almost defeats the point of having the other major press events before the expo.

I have never been into watching the live stuff as it happens, but I'm interested to see what all the events have to offer. The individual times for the RE related stuff was posted here:

It’s that special time of year, where the entire games industry descends upon Los Angeles and struts its collective stuff. Naturally we’ll be there in full force, showing off our current roster of titles – and best of all, we’ll have a live stream going the whole time!

Honestly, the last couple of EA/Ubisoft conferences have been rather lackluster, so don't know if I'm going to really watch those or not. . .or at least have them on in the background. But you can never exactly tell. . .(unless it's microsoft, of course).

Here is a PDF with Spike/Gametrailers full schedule which has what they'll be putting on between the press events. I want to tune into the IV with Reggie and Geoff hopefully to see Geoff look like an idiot again. He's terrible normally but only Reggie seems to be able make him look even worse. Train wreck tv!

When I finally have both a PC that can handle watching live streaming and a good internet connection I'll be at college and work for all the conferences, that's just great.

They don't call him the Reggienator for nuthin! Geoff Keighly is such a fake, pandering jackass.

**Dracarys** · 06-03-2012, 06:31 PM

I expect Ubisoft to be worst, I don't know why they even do conferences, always awful...and the hosts, urgh.

**valentinesdead?** · 06-03-2012, 06:43 PM

It will be if they have this Mr. Caffeine douche again this year.

What is it about E3 and unfunny jokes and terrible host?

Which reminds me, I want me some Kevin Butler at the Sony conference. Period.

**Rombie** · 06-03-2012, 06:49 PM

Nothing will ever beat Jamie Kennedy @ Activision in 2007 for pure horribleness though.

**RiseAboveHate** · 06-03-2012, 06:59 PM

I'm looking forward to what Sony will present for the Vita, ports of PS3 games aren't gonna help it sell. Needs more original games.

**valentinesdead?** · 06-03-2012, 07:00 PM

If we're talking about worst ever host, then yeah, I think I can agree. . .if only because he was completely drunk off his ass.

Worst press conference ever? I think Konami 2010 Press conference gets the nod. WUN MILLION TROOPS!

And, just for measure, this is how it should be done.

Just such a great moment and speech.

**Rombie** · 06-03-2012, 07:23 PM

I kinda disagree. On the surface the WTF Konami one is bad, but it's also in that space of so bad it's kinda good too. And for that I can't call it the worst, just the weirdest.

The content was better than the Activision one as well which on top of Kennedy, who regardless of being drunk, just said some horrible stuff and even treated the staff like crap and I figure he would have done that with or without the drinks. To top it off was his continued attitude towards it via Twitter just last year, when not drunk one would think, was even worse and adds to the legacy of just how bad it is.

But yeah, that 2010 Sony event was one of the best in E3 history without question.
