E3 2010: From The 2015 Perspective

To those of us select few who view this trade conference as the super bowl of the gaming realm, E3 2010 was a bit lackluster. There is this mistake we make as gamers, that watching this 20-30 hours worth of coverage is going to be entertaining for every second. Yet we watch it anyway to analyze and learn about the gaming industries future and eventually select winners based on our own subjective viewpoints (I don't care what you think, your emotions cloud your judgment).

Despite its lack of entertainment value or wow factors, I have to say that what I saw there was the future, you know, the one Marty McFly visited. The gaming industry was demoing the everyday stuff from 2015, as Doctor Emmett Brown and Marty McFly saw it.

E3 2013 has a lot to work towards.

For instance. Lets think to Marty's walk through downtown Hill Valley. After pulling his pockets inside out like all the cool kids, he saw a hologram of Jaws come out to bite him. Now there were no holograms at E3 this year, but there was one technological breakthrough, the 3DS.

And sharks apparently...

3D without glasses, that is the handheld device of the future. Knowing how technology advances, how long are we from large scale 3D that is glasses free? The technology Nintendo is bringing to the table is only the beginning of this 3D revolution, and Jaws is overdue for a remake.

Then Marty heads off to the Cafe 80's. There he plays a classic 80's video game because the kids can't figure out how to use it. This is because the idea of the controller, was foreign to them. Somewhere, Don Mattrick is grinning like the fucking tool that he is.

With Kinect, Microsoft's XBox 360 is going to take the console war to a new level. I don't care what your opinion on the matter is, I don't care that the opening line up is lame, that is a fact. When the average mom and dad sees that thing demoed on the Early Show, it is going to be the console in every families home before Harry Smith finishes dancing. It's lack of controller and voice control interface is going to be big.

So E3 2010, showing us how brilliant Robert Zimeckis really was.

Note: Just putting this out there, every celebrity in the Cafe 80's is dead now. Think about it.

Stereotypical Damn-I-Haven't-Been-On-Here-In-A-While-Post Post

Holy hell. It's been like two months. Since my last post we are all 51 days older and $210,656,539,955.25 deeper into debt.

Too bad, I was doing well, and to think at the time I wasn't even attempting to do well, just had a lot of material. Since then I had finals and then a job at Walmart. The job is good and pays well enough for my ends, but I have to say it is a creative black hole.

So is this me saying that I'll be posting more often again, no fucking idea. We'll just have to see. Probably will embarrassingly put up another post like this in a month.

I have been writing down a lot of youtube video ideas of late and I will post them on here if they happen.

Have an awesome summer everybody.
