DAILY MANIFESTO

Out of the Compound: GR @ E3: Modern Press Conference Warfare

Posted on Sunday, May 15 @ 16:41:27 Eastern by

Woah... just, whoa! Is it really only 23 days until E3 2011? Pre-E3 events are cropping up everywhere. We're getting registered for the big press conferences and preparing liveblogging services to bring the the hot news straight to your eye-holes... balls... whatever! Everyday we inch closer to the biggest conference in gaming is another day where some hot piece of news might spoil a big reveal. That's why if you've missed a day of video gaming news, you've got to catch up! That's why Out of the Compound is here to wrap everything up nicely for you. Sound like you know what you're talking about around the watercooler by catching up with these headlines:
  • ActiBlizz assured investors that they'd make enough Call of Duties, Diabloes, and Spyros for each of them to buy a new pair of crocodile boots.
  • You might be returning to Bright Falls in some form or another so stock up on Energizer batters before the follow up to Alan Wake is released. Microsoft will probably be hitting on Remedy's semi-sequel during their press conference.
  • The E3 floor plans were revealed this week. The fanboys can now begin to plan their day-1 rush to Nintendo booth for some time with Zelda: Skyward Sword and Project Cafe.
With weeks to go until the Electronic Entertainment Expo, you can bet that more leaks will spring. Keep your browser pointed at Game Revolution and your finger on the F5 key for the latest news and media leading up to E3 2011. Looking for a straight shot of E3 buzz? Check out the E3 2011 tag page. Out of the Compound will continue to bring you updates every Sunday between now and June 7th.

    I wonder who will win the sweepstakes. Is GR going to announce it, or is Destructoid?
