Title: E3 2010: Who's Going
Post by: UncleBob on January 09, 2010, 10:36:15 PM

I might be!  Who's going this year?

I've been offered a pass and I'm looking into all the details right now.

Sadly, apparently, an E3 pass doesn't get you into the press conferences (Nintendo in particular...) That makes me a sad panda.

Probably not me. Financial difficulties (read: jobless) may prove fatal to my chances.

I look forward to calling UB during E3 and asking him questions about the Grinder while he plays the demo. Bring a bluetooth headset UB.

If you can't go, can I have your pass?

But Bob, don't forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted.

He met a man who had no feet?

No, stupid!  He lived happily ever after.

How many Wonka bars will I have to go through before I find a golden ticket to E3?

Title: Re: E3 2010: Who's Going
Post by: Mop it up on January 12, 2010, 06:21:13 PM

About 10,000.
With all the money you'd spend on candy bars, it'd probably be cheaper to buy a ticket.

Unless you shop at Costco

I think Costco is better than E3 cuz you can actually buy and go home with great products.

UncleBob posts bumps.

Well, I ain't going... plans fell through earlier this year.  There is no joy in Mudville.

But who *is* going?  I have a secret mission for someone(s) going to E3.  Anyone up for it? (No, it doesn't involve anything illegal, immoral nor will it cost you anything).

I'm going.  What's the plan, Stan?

Thatguy, I need you to ask the High Voltage guys if you get a copy of the Grinder beta and send it to me. Thanks.

Title: Re: E3 2010: Who's Going
Post by: Mop it up on June 10, 2010, 07:21:58 PM

I had the possibility of going, but it didn't pan out. Maybe next year...

I've now made a note to harass the High Voltage Software fellows.  Maybe not specifically about what you said, but... it might come up.

Could you ask them if they got my email about Conduit 2 ideas?

Title: Re: E3 2010: Who's Going
Post by: that Baby guy on June 10, 2010, 11:47:45 PM

No.  I'd never bring up you in a conversation with anyone.  Ever.

HEY! Ask the High Voltage guys if Conduit 2 has classic controller support. Tell them they can finally settle the debate between dual analog and pointer aiming.

I'm trying to go, but it might be too late for me.

Title: Re: E3 2010: Who's Going
Post by: UncleBob on June 11, 2010, 08:17:30 PM

Anyone else going?  I sent thatguy details of his super-secret mission.

Title: Re: E3 2010: Who's Going
Post by: Caterkiller on June 13, 2010, 11:36:05 PM

I'm going! I will be forced into the Sony conference, but once I am out I am patrolling Nintendo all the way!

I'd love to meet some of you NWR staff guys, not sure if I should have something to be recognized by.

Caterkiller, what site/magazine are you representing at E3? That might help, don't E3 passes state what media outlet you work for?

Title: Re: E3 2010: Who's Going
Post by: NinGurl69 *huggles on June 14, 2010, 12:38:03 AM

I'll be here, live, reporting from Twitter.

They do.  I'd take a picture, but I don't want to deal with blurring out barcode junk to keep it from being stolen.

Actually no site/magazine. I waited in line for a pass with a huge Sony crowd. I was just there to help my friend and I got one as well. So I will just be labeled nerdy fan who isnt at all important on the show floor. But I'm not going down like that.

I should be going through Blur Studios/Impact Studios. We did the Dragon Age and Star Wars the old republic motion capture. I will be approaching companies about future motion capture in their games and how my company would do them well. And by my company I mean I don't own it, i'm just another peon.
