Any discussions about hoax games for E3 2017 will be deleted on the spot. Thanks. Sergecross73 msg me 19:56, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
That could hardly be called a press conference. Would anyone object to removing the section? — Gestrid ( talk) 06:55, 12 June 2017 (UTC)
Sergecross73, here's some information from Brandwatch on what happened on social media as companies announced various games and features. Pinging you since no one seems to be keeping an eye on this talk page. — Gestrid ( talk) 10:48, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
A couple recent edits show a possible problem of consistency. For Minecraft as the example, the expo didn't necessarily announce any new version, but stressed cross-platform play between PC, Xbox, Switch, and mobile, with no mention of PS4 (which has been discussed elsewhere). In terms of what we should then list its platforms for, should the PS4 be included since it already exists but simply wasn't part of the news, or should be excluded? We're not being consistent here when you compare to, say, Skyrim, which we list the existing platforms (all before E3) plus the announcement that Switch was getting it too (the new platform).
I don't think it makes sense to make this type of distinguishing aspect here, because you can get into cases where, again with Minecraft, while the PS4 version wasn't mentioned at the show, the game was still there. The only thing I would suggest if that we do want to designate new platforms showcased at E3, then we can bold those in the list. Eg, Undertale would be ( PC / PS4 / Vita ) and Skyrim ( PC / PS4 / Switch / Xbox One) -- MASEM ( t) 20:03, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
