It's the end of the road for what was once the biggest gaming showcase, as its parent company has confirmed that E3 has been canceled forever.

    End of an era. E3 was better as it was more centralized, IMO. Better to get all the news in one place instead of having to go searching for like, 13 different dates for streams. Plus, everyone was in competition with each other, so their presentations had to be good. Now we get Nintendo Directs with like, 90% indie games.

    I swear reality forked in 2020 and this is the bad ending timeline.

          That’s the real date. The harbinger of doom.

      I don’t know what E4 will exhibit, but E5 will be games made entirely out of microtransactions taped together

    I just really really miss being 16 and watching G4. I didn’t know how good those days were.

      Yet to me, G4 represents the downfall of TechTV and when everything became pretty bad.

      The Screen Savers, Call for Help, X-Play… then G4 merged with TechTV and everything went downhill.

      TechTV was the sole reason why I had satellite TV. When G4 turned it into a full gaming channel instead of a tech one, I just cancelled my subscription.

    E3 was a pretty wretched hive of scum and villany, as wretched hives of scum and villany go.
