10 Things That Shouldn’t Be At E3 2014

Nothing gets gamers drooling quite like E3. It’s undoubtedly the highlight of the gaming calendar every year and by now the rumour mill is already going crazy with guesses as to what might make an appearance at the conference, with tantalizing snippets about Zelda for the Wii U, Virtual Reality and tons of new games, but it’s not all sunshine and rainbows.

Ironing boards. They shouldn't be there. And people who don't like games, they shouldn't be there either.

Oh, and Kim Jong-un, he shouldn't be there, he's not very nice. He's a terrible nephew.

I wish PC had a conference to talk about games and upcoming tech

You know what, I've seen a couple of people mention Mr Caffeine over the last few days and didn't really know what they were going on about, and didn't really pay too much mind to it. But after you just said about it I thought I'd have a quick google.....I can't believe I missed that from then lol.

Now I've seen it I'll second that - No Mr Caffeine.

JackOfAllBlades4356d ago

Who in their right mind disagreed with this and wants Mr. caffeine

OK, come on now, the exclusion of ironing boards from the gaming community needs to stop. This is the reason why gamers are seen as being exclusionary rather than inclusive and it's wrong. It doesn't matter if your a girl, gay or an ironing board because everybody has a right to play... except the Jews. Sorry Jews :(

Shame this guy will be disappointed.

Here's what I think shouldn't be at E3, ever. Games that have info "leaked" just days before E3.

Hopefully they focus on just games...which is what next-gen systems need now. I know they won't dedicate the show entirely to games at this point, but it's nice to dream.

I don't agree with that. I WISH I could agree with that. But buying habits and customer opinions prove otherwise

We've seen developers in the AAA space try new things and ideas. More often than not, the customers aren't willing to give things a chance, or not enough people buy into the project for it to grow.

Creativity works better in the indie space because the budgets, pressures, and expectations aren't the same.

Scissorman25d ago

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.
