By popular demand,1Okay, like two people asked for it. here’s a thread to discuss the first all-digital E3 now that we’ve seen all the streams, made all the memes, and killed CHAOS. Let’s talk about the highlights, the lowlights, and everything else.
There are still some gaming events happening this week that we can also discuss in this space. Starting today and continuing for a week is Steam Next Fest, consisting of livestreams and demos for upcoming PC games. Microsoft is also planning an extended Xbox showcase for this Thursday at 1 PM EDT.
For reference, I’ve included links to The Avocado’s E3 discussion threads and all the stream archives I could find.
