E3 '07 Live: Pre-3 w/ Adam SesslerPosted by Mike D'Alonzo - Thursday, July 05, 2007 2:14 PM
We know you're excited about E3 next week. Heck, the G4 Complex is chockablock with plans to bring hours and hours of coverage of this unique event. We did manage to find a little time, however, to sit down with the hosts of our E3 coverage and talk to them about what their expectations of the event were, so you could get a little preview of sorts. Call it Pre-3. We did. Here's Mr. X-Play himself, Adam Sessler.

I'm really excited for e3. I want to see what awesome titles that game developers have created for these new systems.... wii and ps3 in paticular
Not:
Sony Fanboys--- sort of me
M$ Fanboys--- me
WiiTards-- me lol
PC Fanboys--- also me
They are not biased or anything so that is great!
Great interview. I truly enjoyed watching and hearing your inputs. Great job on X Play to. You're a very down to earth kind of guy...keep grinding and doing your job. You're definitely goood at it!
But Adam, on the other hand, is the kind of guy that cuts to the chase. He makes his point and addresses it well.
I salute you Sessler.
Screw "E for All". The moron, frickin’ paid-off beeyatch CEO of E3 says "It will be an opportunity for average gamers to play September/October game releases, before the general public.".
You really are as stupid as you look. Seriously. How about Halo 3 for example… most of us have played it! .. and the rest of us have already seen enough screenshots and video to satisfy us till the release.
Are you that stupid? Have you ever heard of game demos? By the time your freekin' sad excuse for a gamers convention rolls around, we'll all have already PLAYED, VIEWED, REVIEWED and SEEN these Fall releases.
If I want to wait for an 11 year old kid to stop playing a game so I can give it a shot, I'll go stand at my local Gamestop. no thanks.
Thanks for screwing things up for all of us gamers.
In my opinion, the spectacle that WAS E3 (like last year) was a shot in the arm for the game industry. It created hype and excitement through MANY different web sites, not just these larger gamer sites. It was loud, colorful and exciting.
Now it's just a bunch of hotel rooms with screen shots.
Yes, this year's E3 is going to SUCK.
Though it's a bad thing for the public, it's also a good thing.
When you're a company exec, announcing anything directly to the public can be risky since it can easily be reciprocated with anger. So what happened last E3 was that execs removed all of the controversial news from their stories and told all the "good news." Everything else was divulged in the private "E3 inside E3" that Sessler was talking about here. At least this time, execs won't be afraid to spill their guts.
Plus, a public E3 is unmanageable since there's WAY too many people. At least this time reporters will have the room to report on ALL of the stories, as oppoesed to being forced to report only what they can.
I like hearing what Adam likes to say for the most part, much more so than the majority of the g4 hosts, but I can't agree with him this time with that statement. It basically brands everything else below this unattainable standard. Have some faith, man.
If you are usually able to GET INTO events like this because you live in the area or can affrod the travelling involved, I can see why you'd be disappointed. But you are NOT the rest of the world that waits for this event. Being able to provide better and more thorough coverage should be what everyone who wathes this event from home should want.
After all, the vast majority of ppl there at previous E3 events weren't sharing everything they experienced to the world now were they? They weren't ALL reporting the event. I dont understand how more of a good thing can be bad when it comes to this event.
And as for Halo 3, I dont think he means it will be the best game ever, I just think he is saying that it is a large franchise that will hog a lot of the spotlight, much like starwars may not be the best movie ever created, but it is deffinately in almost everyones video collection and a well known name. I am verry interested to see games like Mass Effect, Too Human, Blue Dragon, Army of Two etc.
And as far as adam goes, yes, i agree that he is pretty much one of the only hosts on g4 that is really believable, and the whole thing with him and kevin, most of the time on those segments such as the loop, he has questions prepared, this is part of being a good tv personality, to act interested in the person you are interviewing, even if your not.
Halo 3 will pwn all games. The PS3 sucks thus far, and what's with all the Killzone 2 hype. The first one sucked, and the trailer for it was obviously prerendered. As for the Wii, I've had fun with Super PM, but we do need a good new title for the console. The Wii's internet feature is awesome, something no other console has.
