For those of you who might be unfamiliar with EB Expo, essentially, it’s the Australian equivalent to other game related shows such as E3, Tokyo Game Show and GamesCom. Well, except for one core difference. The EB Expo is entirely organised by a retailer, and as the name suggests, that retailer is EB Games, the Australian cousin to America’s GameStop.

Ultimately, the goal is to spread product awareness, and so I am curious to learn how this concept will adapt with retail being added into the mix.

Creativity works better in the indie space because the budgets, pressures, and expectations aren't the same.
it's a nice idea and it worked during the PS2/PS3-era when AAA didn't cost hundreds of millions of dollars. smaller budgets and shorter development time left room for more creativity and more risk. a game didn't need to sell 4 million+ copies to break even. things are different now.
This is the guy who bragged about crunching his staff and having them work through the night. Crunch culture has lost more talent and done more damage to the industry than any other factor. Screw him.
