Couldn't care less who organizes the event that I'll watch on Twitch. It's all the same to me.

RUMOR: Sony to announce they are skipping E3 later today

Nah, they big press will be there obviously but not every single journalist who would have attended E3 will be there. E3 is unique in that all the game companies are in a single place so spending money on the trip is justified. Not every small publication or blogger is going to be able to attend whatever event Sony have.
Honest question, does Sony still have anyone with enough charisma that can host a conference like Jack, Shawn, Adam, etc?
I believe E3 doesnt make much sense to Sony, MS or Nintendo, since they can host their own show and have the spotlight on them
But I wonder about third party? If E3 ends, would they also host their own shows separately?
The good thing about it is that we would have more announcements throughout the year, instead of an avalanche of announcements in the spam of a few days

Yeah I was just thinking the same thing while looking at their feed. Typically they tweet 5+ times a day and there's nothing at all today so far. Something's up for sure.
nope. jim ryan does not cut it. maybe he could grow into it, like shawn,
What difference does it make if Sony does a stage presentation in front of a hyped crowd at E3 or at their own event? Outside of nostalgia goggles, I've seen little justification in this thread on why it needs to be an E3 thing. We(gamers) are so weird sometimes.
*sigh*
If it doesn't happen by 1pm PST (40 minutes from now) I don't think it's happening today

I get we're all nostalgic for E3, but with how shaky the ESA is running things I don't blame anyone wanting to get away from it.
Kind of a bummer. I enjoy E3 as Gaming Christmas and their absence diminishes that. It's a bigger loss for E3 than it is Sony though.
I hope E3 goes away, mostly because the ESA is a horrible organization. They've done exactly nothing about shitty microtransactions, they did nothing until they were forced by the government to add ratings back in the day, and doxxing of journalists was just a cherry on top of a shit sundae.
I didn't think Sony would skip E3 again just because of the PS5. On the other hand, I don't mind Sony doing their own thing. I think the magic of E3 is just everyone being together but if everybody does their own thing outside of E3 at the same time then it will have the same affect.
Herman?
He debuted PS4 on Jimmy Fallon. Guy might be spokes person for these events similar to what shue did for PS4 launch. Jim will unveil ps5 Herman will show games.
You could have the same question when Jack left and Shawn filled that position perfectly. I have no doubt a new talent will rise and surprise us.
I've been over E3 for a while. I prefer the schedule of everyone doing their own things throughout the year.
Hermen Hulst is visiting SIE headquarters today. Something's going down.
Shall we do both? Generally there's a lot of games to showcase, slightly more than usual with indies going into time slots.
This sums it up for me. I don't care if it's at E3 or PSX or something standalone. I like when they do these live takes and have developers come up and express their passion for their games.
I love the Direct style SoP, but I hope we still get these other real time staged events. Adds to the hype!
I said charismatic, not cool. Reggie was cool and charismatic. Jacky T was cool and charismatic. Shawn Lauren was charismatic. Hermen is just cool.
Also known as Dutch :P. /s for all my Dutch friends, I love the Netherlands I swear!
The nostalgia loving kid in me wants them to be at E3. I love the E3s of old. But do we really need it anymore? E3 is pretty much dying. So I guess I wouldn't mind.
They should focus on their own epic events. If this is something else instead of E3 then that's fine.

It's not like they really need the exposure at this point as it worked just as well for them as of last year. Sucks to see E3 slowly dying at this point with Sony leaving though I have to admit (if true).
There are five stages to grief, which are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. And right now, out here, you're all denying the fact that you're sad; and that's hard, and it's making you all angry. And it is my job to get you all the way through to acceptance, and, if not acceptance, then just depression. If I can get you depressed, then I'll have done my job.
I legit would have put money 2 years ago when they said MS was doing their own place that they were just going to put all the games on Mixer and use the controller share thing so people could play new game demos
Now xCloud exists..
It would be the ultimate test of their service, but also a huge pee-pee moment if it worked

E3 was a big event for everyone who wasn't there. People around the world were interested in that event. Now Sony wants something different and i think will be a huge mistake. Being cozy with streamers and youtubers is not the future of gaming.
That entire fiasco was so dumb honestly. The guy (Cornelius Boots) is actually a master of the shakuhachi flute. I found that out after the fact but his performance was pretty cool not gonna lie. A lot of people showed their ass that day lol.
