Day
finally some people speaking the truth while every paid ad online is saying nintendo won it and sony came in second place.
Microsoft’s conference was the best for that Metro: Exodus trailer alone. One of the few actual surprises at E3. Those games (and the books) are amazing, and I thought the series was done and forgotten. Super happy for that, plus it’s multiplatform so everyone can cut the fanboy bullshit out of the discussion.
Also, nice O’Reilly meltdown by John.
I thought the exact same O’Reilly thing when he said it too – FUCK IT – WE’LL DO IT LIVE !
Phew, lots of details tonight, thanks for the notes and links!
Good job! Woot
