E3’s provided enough drama in the past week to last the American games industry a lifetime, and the criticism is both heavy and relentless in the aftermath. Is the show relevant any more? Is there even a point in trying to change it? We sat down with Eurogamer.net editor Tom Bramwell and talked over the issues surrounding the event. Sorry for the sound quality. If you want us to do this again we’ll buy a couple of microphones, or something.

Sounds a bit like one of those dodgy recordings on a Trevor MacDonald expose.
July 21st, 2008 at 12:16 pm
Tom didn’t know I was recording it, obv.
July 21st, 2008 at 12:18 pm
Were you eating the mic?
July 21st, 2008 at 12:20 pm
I have no idea what the background noise is. The mic was just sat in front of us. I’ll sort it out for the next one. If we do one.

What it lacks in professional polish it more than makes up for with MANLY SWEARING.

Keep listening, they wrestle at one point.

That’s right, scratchy. I’m from the street. I’m so real it’s amazing.

More of this, please.
“Do you think the casual stuff is a bit..er..shit!?”
Brilliant! \°/

Kinda needs a download link to be a podcast innit. GIVE ME ONE.
July 21st, 2008 at 1:16 pm
Heh. OK, I’ll try to make it sound like it’s not in a cement mixer next time.
July 21st, 2008 at 1:18 pm
Turn it on if you want, mart.
July 21st, 2008 at 1:18 pm
Maybe you could go for a bustling city street for background noise next time. Mix it up a little.
July 21st, 2008 at 1:24 pm
Honestly, we were just sitting in a quiet room. I should probably have researched it a bit. Or at all.
July 21st, 2008 at 1:25 pm
Yeah, sitting in a quiet room is a good idea. A better idea is having the mic in the quiet room with you.

It was in front of my face. It’s not my fault digital recording can’t cope with the relentless sexiness of my voice.
July 21st, 2008 at 1:28 pm
There was clearly far too much testosterone in the room.
July 21st, 2008 at 1:29 pm
Must be it. The microphone was swooning.
July 21st, 2008 at 2:37 pm
no one tells me anything any more
i’ll download it once i get the internet again.

put it in the biggest exhibition hall in vegas
let the punters in
bring back the babes
else leipzig will kill it
July 21st, 2008 at 3:52 pm
There’s so much exhibition space in Las Vegas. They could do anything there. And it’s all self-contained by the Strip. And there are a million hotels. LA’s just a joke. They need to do something.

Funny how Tom said that in order for MS to come up with a new killer app MS would need to spend so much time, money etc., and then who knows if they’d come up with something or not.
“Funny why, morriss?” Because it’s ‘exactly’, and I mean ‘exactly!’ what I wrote in that MS-madals to rival Trophies story.
Almost to the word.
Great minds, I reckon.
July 21st, 2008 at 8:58 pm
I never have any idea what I’m saying when I do this sort of thing. One Life Left is the same. If I’m even remotely coherent it’s a complete accident.
Morriss: ““Funny why, morriss?” Because it’s ‘exactly’, and I mean ‘exactly!’ what I wrote in that MS-madals to rival Trophies story.”
Obviously I steal everything I write and say. I’m probably stealing this comment. That said, it’s a pretty self-evident truth of Microsoft’s failure to get casual to work, so it might be that. Although since I can barely remember what I said, let’s go with your analysis.
July 22nd, 2008 at 12:19 pm
it was just a joke, mate. I found it a bit uncanny is all. I never implied you steal everything you say either. It’s just we said exactly the same thing almost to the word.
