i'm not gonna create new threads or close this one during press conferences, by the way. y'all can just post about E3 in here and if someone really wants to, they can create specific threads for microsoft or square enix or epic pc gaming store show. but i feel like this thread is just as good for discussion

like, we made it through the splatoon invitational without randos posting creepy art like they did in the Awesome Games Done Quick thread so I feel like this thread has just the right amount of chill energy for this week

if someone creates a separate thread for events then i guess it could draw away the people who come in from other SA subforums and want to practice their AVGN impressions

but i'm still leaving this open

Did they fix the cheating?

Turns out, yes they did. It has... something of an anti-cheat system now.

With that said, for whatever reason, it got turned off for 2 months. This let hackers run rampant in the March global demo for this year. (Also the banlist of cheaters for Splatoon 2 didn't get transferred over to the demo because?????)

The especially wild part? This exact same mistake happened in the first game too!

Honestly i'm not holding my breath, but November 9, 2019 for a release date would be incredible.

November 9 is Saturday.
September 11 is Wednesday.

If that release date is real it means Cyberpunk, Death Stranding, Pokemon Sword/Shield, and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order(hey, it could be good!) come out within a week of each other, and then Shenmue 3 is 4 days after that. That's gonna be a hectic month. And there's still a bunch of games coming out this year that don't have release dates yet...

The best E3 reveal would be that sonic 3 and knuckles is available on literally any console.

As with the last three things they've released I imagine EA's sabotaging it in a bid to prove non-live-service games dead (or in Apex Legend's case anything other than Anthem).

9/11 is 9th November in most of the world and it was (supposedly) from the European publisher, so it's not an edgy joke.

Why isn't "From the team behind The Witcher" center justified correctly?

Also the lovely drop shadow behind the date, the overlapping logo, the font choice and the low contrast making the Windows 10 symbol harder to identify. And c'mon, no European marketing team will sign off on putting 9/11 on their graphics either when you can just say 09 NOV or something. Jesus.

All of this can be true at the same time with the release date being real. Namco doesn't exactly have the best track record with social media professionalism
Well... huh. I guess this is hellworld and a lovely fan edit with two 4chan jokes added in can still be the real deal

Believe it or not we still think of 9th November as just a date and not something that happened in America 18 years ago. However 9th November is a Saturday, and games in Europe launch either on Tuesday or Friday.

Yo if you have Xbox Gold and Gamepass services go sign up for Ultimate; it merges your months together. I.e., if you have 6 months left on your gold and 3 months left on your gamepass it'll give you 9 months of both.

Game Pass on PC has also been priced, it's gonna be £4/$5 a month which I'm pretty sure is cheaper than it is on the Xbox.
