Sony has just announced that they arent showing up at E3 2019, and while dosent mean another company HAS to do a conference in their place, since theres now an extra stage available, I could see another company taking the opprotunity to take to the stage. So which company would you like to see do a conference at E3 this year in their place?

No one. In fact, cancel E3 altogether.

Why?

The whole experience has been unimpressive, as a whole, in recent years. Sony alternating between decent and crap, until now. Microsoft being mostly just there. Nintendo deciding not to take E3 seriously, so their good announcements are rare for the event. Major developers or publshers spending ages talking about stuff we barely or hardly care about, while showing off only so many titles, half of which we barely hear about again until release (and only a fraction of those as something worth mentioning again).

Basically the event no longer seems important, other than name only.

PS5 unveiling means no time put in to game releases.

It's not like publishers are fighting for spots, hosting an E3 show is expensive. If anyone else wanted to have an E3 show they'd do it already.

EA's show is bascially for investors, not players.

This year's E3 was a huge disaster for Sony, but that's their own fault.

I don't know what is so difficult for these game companies to understand.

People don't want stage gimmicks, or pushed political agendas. Remember that most people are watching a stream and having gimmicks for just the press who are there in person is not impressive to a large majority of your audience.

Just show good games with game play one after the other. If your showing hardware show off the hardware's capabilities, and ensure you have pro consumer practices like no DRM.

Nothing left to show for this gen more than likely. Well nothing that requires a massive stage at E3 anyway.

And then, when PS5 is finally announced, Sony and SE will both be like "Oh yeah, FFVII Remake is coming soon on PS5."

Amusing, when you consider how many people bought 4s for the VII Remake.

Probably. Won't be out until at least PS7 though.

I wouldn't necessarily say that their good announcements are rare, but the Direct format does mean they aren't at all reliant on E3 to show off their stuff. If E3 disappeared altogether, Nintendo's big summer reveal wouldn't change at all.

That said, there's a whole lot more that goes on at E3 than just the press conferences. I'd be fine with the traditional conferences dying out entirely, but the impressions that people report from the show floor are pretty interesting.

Most of you are forgetting or don't know that E3 has gone back and forth between being a major press conference focused event and an event focused on just letting the general public get to try out new games.

It looks like the event is simply swinging back around to being more about letting people enjoy stuff coming out in the future than to broadcast new titles. A bummer for the majority of people for sure, but those attending really aren't missing out on much. They still get to play a bunch of non-released titles.

I guess if you think about it, Nin has their own 'show' and Sony holds multiple events a year. It just leaves losers like M$ and EA, companies with nothing worth talking about.

If Sony's really out I'd almost be inclined to say E3 is dying.

There's not really much of a reason for it to exist anymore anyway given that the nature of news has changed.

Gaming news is the only kind that isn't fake.
