Yahtzee Deconstructs the E3 Trailer Park

With all the E3 wrap-up and deconstruction flying around Yahtzee has once again done a stellar job of summarizing and unmasking the standard bullshit in his own Zero Punctuation-style review of the E3 "trailer park". Labeling this year as "sequel boulevard" and questioning the lack of any meaningful amount of gameplay footage, this year was almost a universal disappointment. There are rumblings of some improvements next year, perhaps returning things to some small measure of their previous glory, but only time will tell.

    That, and he didn't attach a number to his criticism. Companies are naturally more afraid of numbers than words.

    That actually liked this E3? I don't care about the pomp and circumstance. I want to know what's coming out and maybe see a video and/or screenshot or two. I think the bigger problem is that there wasn't much worth showing this year.
