Top 5 Embarrassing and Worst Moments of E3 2016

This year’s E3 was pretty good. Now let’s laugh at what was terrible.

[jessionpc]

The M$ conference?

Loved that part where they announced after the show that DR4 wasn't exclusi- ohh waaaaaait... NOTHING is exclusive. Silly me <3

[Deadpooled]

Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa and those other snobs at Battlefield 1 forcing that segment into a celeb gossip show, diverting the attention of them gladly getting owned by the YouTubers online every match. It's like the YouTubers were playing with bots in their team.

Edit - I fully apologise for discriminating bots by comparing them with these so called 'Celebz'

[Gitgud]

CPU's are better than celebs. That's an insult too the CPU community

[scark92]

Bots are much better than the Celebs! To be fair, Terry Crews seemed cool and he played with a Mouse and Keyboard lol, gotta love him!

[Seraphim]

You can't throw that segment on the list. I mean did you see when they cut to Snoop? at one point he was puffing a J.

[MaxCompiler]

Burn!! XD

[XanderZane]

What?!?!? Win 10 Exclusive.

[Blacklash93]

Overall, I thought Ubisoft's conference was much less cringe-y this year. I also appreciated the self-awareness and slight self-deprecation from Tyler. :P

[Shubhendu_Singh]

My best part from Ubisoft's conference was South Park's devtalk. Those guys are hilarious.
And Aisha Tyler was alright throughout the conference.

Though everybody loves the Just Dance bit. My god how hyped the gamers around the world were to see it. /s

[scark92]

I hope Aisha Tyler stays with Ubisoft for a long time as I think she is good, also the cringyness is part of the fun when watching E3.

[Dagexon]

I actually really enjoy Aisha Tyler's presence during ubisoft's conferences. It's sorta quircky but I'd say it makes the conferences more enjoyable, especially this last one that was so long and spent so much time on things like a full match of eagle flight and the behind the scenes footage of the assassin's creed movie.

[dcbronco]

You gotta wonder how many of the guys constantly criticizing women who appreciate games only have love for their moms. And her basement.

[Relientk77]

- The last game Ubisoft showed. Seriously some dumb skiing game or whatever? That's your big finale.

- Lack of any surprises, WOW moments, or big new games at Microsofts conference

[Hold_It]

Agreed. Can you believe this was the E3 that was supposed to be their 30th Anniversary of existing as a company? I can't. No Prince of Persia, Splinter Cell is a Sam Fisher DLC skin for The Division, no Rayman, and Ghost Recon x Division Cross over (What people might as well called Wildlands), and that SSX knockoff. Oh, can't forget that Trials x Blood Dragon (I mean Trials Of The Blood Dragon). What a cringe concept, and their opening was just, suicide worthy.

Edit: When I was watching the Microsoft E3 I saw Phil had that Original Xbox shirt on, and I got super hype hoping that he was going to say the next update for the One was going to add original Xbox BC, and when he didn't say it I was pretty disappointed. At least Dead Rising 4 was confirmed, and we got some date for Halo Wars 2, and Forza, and a window for Scalebound. Those were the only games that stood out to me, or that I will buy besides We Happy Few. Definitely going to double dip on Dead Rising 4 ( buy another copy when it comes to PS4).

[dcbronco]

Can't forget Sea of Thieves, Cuphead. And usually when Phil wears a shirt it has a purpose. Battletoads shirt got a character. Original BC is coming. I know One can do it.

[Mikefizzled]

It's something different. Not another teen ubisoft game with everything that comes with it. I really enjoyed the showcase. A guy in a squirrel suit hitting a church bell at speed for a glorious 'dong' sound.

[xtremexx]

Better Microsoft show you games that are coming out this year and next than Sony revealing many more games with no release dates that you won't see till 2018...

[Silly Mammo]

Really? You're still beating that drum. Smh

[xtremexx]

The truth?

[Silly Mammo]

No the truth is MS showed the release dates on games that they showed 2-3 E3's ago. Just like Sony does. If it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy thinking MS doesn't do like Sony and Nintendo then it can't be helped.

[stuna1]

Oh you must not have gotten the memo!? the majorith of the games Sony announced last year are coming out this year and the beginning of next. The games that Microsoft announced are games announced 2 to 3 years ago that are finally coming out. And as usual they'll likely all fall around the holiday seasons. After 2 generations can Microsoft get any more predictable?

[PaleMoonDeath]

.. At least the games Sony showed look worth playing :P

[medman]

@xtremexx
LOL... guys like this are funny. The things they have to try to convince themselves of is hilarious....but I guess the only other alternative would end in them slitting their wrists looking at gamers enjoy titles like Ratchet and Clank and Uncharted, while all they get is Quantum Bust and another six months to the next overhyped disappointment. You have to feel for the poor things.

Meanwhile, No Man's Sky is coming soon, as is The Last Guardian and Gran Turismo Sport. What does Microsoft have on offer? Let me guess, that would be another fall of Forza, Halo, and Gears....typical. What a snoozefest that will be. Then, 2017 is looking as strong for Sony as 2016 has been, with Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War, Detroit Become Human, Wild, Persona 5, Ni No Kuni 2.....there is no competition. Sony has left the poor Microslops dreaming of Scorpio, another xbox that doesn't have a chance firstly because Sony and Nintendo have all the games people want to play, and secondly, because no matter what kind of powerhouse Scorpio is, pc will always be at least two steps ahead of it, even at Scorpio's launch, meaning the best version of Microsoft's games will not be on that pricey new Scorpio, but over on pc, because Microsoft has zero true exclusives left. What a future. Sleep with those nightmares xtremexx. Good luck with that mess. Now there's some truth for you, guy. Have fun trying to swallow it.

[Deadpooled]

Can you please tell me when the Xbox One Crackdown is releasing utilising the power of the cloud?

Yep exactly. Keep flogging that dead horse.

[Clunkyd]

@xtremexx
How is that the truth?
LMAO fanboys these days.

[trouble_bubble]

Everyone already knows what's coming out this year. You enjoy that? It's like buying a TV guide to see what was on yesterday. what's the point?

[FPS_D3TH]

Guess that's easy to do when you can count your exclusives on one hand

[jznrpg]

Games that had release dates were shown last year or 2014, how great of MS to have release dates for games we know about, they are so amazing!!!

[The 10th Rider]

Eh, I think the lack of any big new games was partially due to the leaks. State of Decay 2 and Dead Rising 4 were already known about. (Games don't have to be 100% exclusive to be exciting, guys.) There was also the announcement of Halo Wars beta being available now, and the debut of ReCore was pretty great. I mean, their conference was hardly the best. But it wasn't like it was bad or embarrassing.

[xtremexx]

Thank you for you unbiased comment where you don't rush to defend/bash anyone unlike some others

[Moe-Gunz]

I like Tyler and disagree there. That minecraft segment was cringe worthy.

[Hold_It]

They were both cringe to be fair. Ubisofts entire opening was more cringe than the Minecraft segment.

[DragonDDark]

An Ipad in a MS conference *facepalm*

[Sir_Simba]

every-time Aisha Tyler says something i find my turning into Archer

"Shut-up LANA"

[The7Reaper]

The whole twitch chat was filled with "LAAANNNNAAA!!" comments everytime she walked on stage lol

[PaleMoonDeath]

Minecraft.. that was mad cringe, and the word exclusive at Microsoft's conference was hilarious, it's all on PC as well. Ubisoft focus on cringe now so that's not as surprising anymore.. Ghost Recon in-game chat though, NO one speaks like that, at least I hope so..

[Deadpooled]

"Xbox One... and Windows 10..... Exclusive" after mentioning it the other 10 or so times, yeah MS we get it.

[PaleMoonDeath]

Haha! Oh Microsoft, we're not stupid.

[pody]

The Minecraft segment without a doubt. I had to mute the sound because it was just too painful to handle.

[Kyosuke_Sanada]

I'd say Ubisoft's presentation of Wildlands deserves a mention. I liked what I saw mind you but good God the "voice chat" made it almost unwatchable. It's a stupid tactic.......stop it!!!

[Nodoze]

She is the absolute worst and yet Ubisoft STILL choose to use her year after year. Can we hang this used piece of trash out by the curb. It's GARBAGE DAY. Perhaps after the comments on the cheap French company, they can stop calling her to MC.

[Deadpooled]

Maybe all the good French ones stayed in France for Euro2016?

[KillZallthebeast]

I just feel any voice actor should never be disrespected. I also feel equally that my title as captain is lost on some of you basic bitches...it's okay eventually it will make sense as much as all life will end in death...it's just inevitable

[DualWielding]

I know some people do like Aisha Tyler as a presented but those people have terrible taste

[Servbot41]

Nintendo only bringing two first-party games to the show and then proceeding to show of Zelda for like 6 hours.

[mkis007]

To be honest I was suspecting some blowback about Crash being remastered instead of bought...but I was pleasantly surprised that people loved that just as much.

[TheColbertinator]

The Wii Music show was awful

Usher was a disaster

BAM! There it is. Another gimmick motion controller

Mr Caffeine can't speak French

Assassins Creed Black Flag crashed and the demo ended.

The PC Gamer "conference" was just an interview set

Wonderbook

Star Wars Kinect and everything associated with it forever

VR,Hololens,Rift belong in a waste furnace

As a bonus Brink. The previews and original trailers all amounted to nothing. That game blew.

[Nivekki]

I must have missed them at E3 2016.

[TheColbertinator]

Just remembering the other E3s and their nonsense too.

[The7Reaper]

Honestly Aisha Tyler wasnt as annoying as she usually is at E3 wayyyy less cringe than last year in my opinion.

[joab777]

Maybe it's lost in translation, but how come companies don't yet understand what makes a successful conference? I'm not gonna say Sony was perfect, but just showing the games works!!!!

Ubisoft had great games to show and yet found a way to give us an absurd showing...again. I can't even watch it. I just YouTube the trailers afterwards. Why? Because all I care about are the games. I will get my comedy and entertainment elsewhere.

Holy hell!!! I don't envy those who have to be there in person and sit through these. Yeah, they may get something like Sony last year, but I'd rather miss it than be tortured by everything else.

If I ever do make time in my life for E3, I will start my week on Tuesday, or Monday night at the earliest.

[Excalibur]

I stopped the vid halfway in, it would have been nice if the commentator actually SHUT UP and let us see/hear the embarrassing and/or worst moments.

[Kosic]

The Minecraft show wasn't there? The hell? That was one of the most pathetic announcements I'd ever seen. It was so awkward to watch and laughable at best.

[pyroxxx]

Mincraft ,.. especially Carmack,.. hell I felt embarrassed for him. That was sad,.. Don't think the acting/live demo compilation for Sea of thieves was bad at all,.. Felt pretty legit ,.. maybe editing was the cause of it looking fake,.. but we see much worse at Ubi every year. (but yes it is forced but it shows coop pretty well)

[DiscoKid]

Aisha Tyler was absolutely the most cringeworthy aspect of E3.

[SynestheticRoar]

Aisha Tyler is fine. She's the only reason I watch that show.

[Atomicjuicer]

Aisha may as well just take a few hormones and get a dick implant. I like her enthusiasm and she wasn't as bad as previous years but I thought that snarky American host they had a few years ago was better. Joel mchale according to google. I think ubi fired him for being irreverent though. He actually said what everyone watching was actually thinking.

[Artemidorus]

Ubisoft turning up is an embarrassment it's self.

[22CobraKing]

Sea of Thieves gameplay was so scripted, they were trying to much.

[BIGBOSS08]

scalebound gameplay was embarrassing! it just looked so dull and lame. actually most of the microsoft conference was thrash to be honest. only real good games was gears of war 4 and we happy few. it was easy for sony to stomp microsoft. they could have even taken out a few games and filled them with boring interviews and they still would have won, thats how bad the microsoft conference was.

[chobit_A5HL3Y]

aisha taylor is so horrible. the worst BY FAR. it's embarrassing to watch her try and be a host. she's not funny and it's extremely awkward to watch. they should invest in someone who isn't broken-teeth level of cringe.
