After more than two decades of E3, each one bigger than the last. The time has come to say goodbye. Thanks for the memories. Sad day in history, you know, if you don't know what I'm referring to, if you don't know what the segment is over, if you don't know why the sad music is playing, is because Electronic

Entertainment Expo, aka AE3, is officially dead. Marking the end of an era, of course, for the gaming industry's biggest

convention. Now, of course, in the new evolution of internet, new competitors partner with draws with Nintendo being the first, might add,

as far as as the big three Nintendo Xbox and PlayStation Nintendo was the first to leave E3 and go the own way so blame them Of course pandemic can never forget the impact that shutting down the whole world had the collapse following years of attempts to revive the event with the last in-person conference held in 2019 online video news conferences and individual showcases have become exponential meaning that there's so many different outlets that there was no more use utility wise for e3 so while to all my hardcore gamers out there this closure may end one book just know that there that there are more chapters to come.

All right, that's all I got. So anyway, that was my dramatic soliloquy. Well, that wasn't soliloquy because I had to be in the background. But you'll get what I'm saying, right? Cover the whole thing. That's basically it. E3 is dead. It's been dead for a while.

Like I said, the last in-person conference held in 2019. And if you're watching the analytic dreams video on Spotify right now for the video and audio, I don't know what that is up on my screen. That's very insensitive. but hey somebody got to do it man pay your respects to e3 while we have the tombstone up but anyways um something else i was wanting to get into oh because of this being the end of e3 i thought i may take it upon myself as a true gamer to talk about some of the biggest highlights ever for e3 right and why it blew up in the first place if y'all don't know or if y'all not familiar 2001 god mode if you don't know about that

it's okay because I was just born too, right? Bullfrog founder, Peter, I can't say that last name, over the top presentation of black and white's god mode feature where players could literally control the weather and smite villagers with lightning became infamous for its outlandish promises and trademark hyperbole. Hiperbole.

Oh, that's hyperbole. I almost say hyperbo. I'm pretty sure that's hyperbole, right? But anyways, dance dance crave revolution was another thing that blew up, as had attendees lining up for hours just to bust a move on the colorful dance masks. Y'all remember the time when people actually used to go outside, go to the arcades and have a little fun, you know, be a little active nowadays. Let me just chill. So anyways, some of the biggest moments in E3, of course, is Keanu Reeves. nobody can forget that.

I mean, I'm playing cyberpunk myself this year. And I feel like the announcement back in 2019 still applies to this day because that game is fantastic now in this finish state. Back then, not so much. But anyways, Keanu Reeves went on stage, kind of showcasing the importance of E3 as his presentation of Cyberpunk 2077 took a lot of people back as most of the prominent actors. never really put gaming on the forefront in this magnitude. So now you see like Timothy shout, I forget his name, but the actor that was, that's Willie Wonka, right? You see more prominent actors like, dang, what's his name?

Anthony something. It's on the tip of my tongue. Pause. Anyways, the black Captain Mick, right? He's showing up now. Basically, a lot of prominent actors are now giving gaming. It's credit it deserves, right? and Keanu Reeves was more of the first

to come out, shut down the conference with his presence on stage, and it was really an unforgettable moment. And then another thing, of course, this is the last thing I wanted to touch on, was the surprise of the let's play era, right? E32010 saw the rise of a new phenomenon, let's play.

And one of those scenes was personalities like PewDiePie, uh, CNNers captivating audiences with live commentary reactions to E3's biggest announcements

blurring the line between traditional media coverage and fan engagement if y'all don't know the internet is not that old so a lot of things were experiencing it's very very new

like very like internet I think the iPhone came out and before no no after I was born so with that being said like the internet's not that uh obviously the internet's been around but what it is today is it hasn't been like that for a while and i have to do a whole like deep dive to find out when they exactly

evolved into what it is today but it's it's really been like a decade maybe decade and a half to what the internet's at like this um this advance as far as like actually being useful but anyways i know a lot of people are gonna get bored if i go into the you know logistics of internet and things and that nature. So with that being said, I'm not really surprised. Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, all have the own conferences

literally called like direct to consume like something direct, basically saying how they can get directly to the consumer to advertise the product, right? So why do you need E3 anymore? The internet did away with the use of E3. So with that being said, E3, while it's gone,

it would never be forgotten. and all my gamers press what did they say press F to pay respects with that being said click my link tree in my bio let me know one of my social media's what do you think about the death of electronic

entertainment expo and what was your favorite moment from watching or if you attended attending E3 you're attending E3
