327. It's really poisonous
After the success of the first and second E3 exhibitions, the organizing committee was unable to negotiate the venue with the Los Angeles Convention Center.
This year's E3, held at the Atlanta World Convention Center, was smaller than the previous two editions, with just over 30,000 visitors.
However, this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the gamers who participated in the game fair.
Despite the hot weather, the enthusiasm of the gamers at the game fair was still high.
They are dressed in a variety of game character costumes, holding their favorite game items in their hands, and their faces are full of excited smiles.
The main reason is that-
This year's E3 Electronics Show, although the scale and venue are smaller than in the past, but the number of participating game companies is the most, not only the regular guests of previous years, such as Sega, Ren Heaven, EA, etc., but also many world-renowned game manufacturers also came to the scene.
For example, Sony, Konami, Namco......
The most eye-catching, in addition to a group of old bigwig game manufacturers, is pokeni.
The popularity of P in the Omi region is really unusually high.
From the moment Qing Zhiyuan got off the plane and then followed the staff into the E3 main venue, there were all kinds of enthusiastic cheers around, and even the media reporters pointed their cameras at Qing Zhiyuan.
This young president, who is good-looking and particularly photogenic, coupled with the reputation and popularity accumulated by P Society, immediately became the focus of attention on the scene.
Although many local young people do not know Qingzhiyuan, they know the POKENI signboard held by the staff in front of Qingzhiyuan.
As soon as he appeared, he was surrounded by water.
"What kind of games will POKENI bring this year?"
"POKENI: This is the first time to participate in the E3 electronics show, right? Can you tell us why you chose to participate this year? Why hadn't you considered accepting an invitation from E3 before? β
Qing Zhiyuan just smiled indifferently in the face of questions from the media, "What kind of games Pokeni will bring this year, everyone will wait and see, and we will announce it at the pre-exhibition press conference."
It's a bit too early to say it, hahaha.
As for why we came to E3 this year, it was because we weren't ready before, and we didn't have a game that we could get our hands on.
This year should be considered a relatively sure one. β
Sizzle......
Hearing Qing Zhiyuan's words, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
Last year, Pokeni showcased blockbuster games like Princess Mononoke and The Witcher 2 - Devil's Egg at the Tokyo Game Show.
This is still called "can't take it"?
Who's got the game out there?
Is this year's pokeni going to lift the game to the sky?!
In short, the appearance of pokeni, coupled with Qing Zhiyuan's words, directly filled the suspense, and the P Society had not yet held a pre-exhibition press conference, and it had already fermented to the point of exploding.
The focus of the audience's attention can be said to be full of gimmicks.
The organizers did not expect that although the scale of this year is small, there are so many game manufacturers who can come.
β¦β¦
After Qingzhiyuan entered the main venue, many game manufacturers couldn't help but look at it.
In addition to Omicia's game manufacturers, there are also many old faces and acquaintances.
Sega's Mr. Hayao Nakayama was particularly enthusiastic about him, and when he came up, he patted Qing Zhiyuan on the back and walked forward with him.
"Qingsan, I didn't expect Pokeni to come too."
"Hmm."
Qing Zhiyuan smiled and nodded and looked at the old man.
Now Zhongshan San is much more energetic than the last time he saw him, and his whole state is much better, and he has dyed his hair black, and from the appearance, he doesn't look like a 65-year-old man at all, but more like a middle-aged man in his 40s.
It seems that it is to show that Sega can still play and has courage, so this time Hayao Nakayama is still very interested in the E3 electronics exhibition and arrived at the scene in person.
Thanks to Pokeni, now Sega still has the possibility of turning over.
Due to the hot sales of Duo PokΓ©mon in the recent year, Sega's handheld has directly become the world's No. 1 selling game handheld.
Ren Heaven's side collapsed, and even Yokoi Junhei, who was in charge of the research and development of the handheld machine, resigned because of this.
So for Hayabusa Nakayama, it's a mixed blessing.
Although it lost in the console market, SS was completely crushed by PS, but at least it won back a city in the handheld field.
So Hayakuo Nakayama was quite happy after seeing Qing Zhiyuan, and didn't pay much attention to the fact that they [fell to Sony].
"Looking forward to future cooperation."
After greeting Hayakuo Nakayama, Qing Zhiyuan parted with him with a smile, and turned around to be surrounded by a bunch of people again.
Sony's Kutaragi Ken pulled Qing Zhiyuan and talked for a while.
In addition to Sony, there are many game manufacturers and operators, distributors and publishers in the Omi region, etc., have come to Qingzhiyuan, hoping to cooperate in the future.
Qing Zhiyuan also felt it-
E3 Electronics Show is worthy of being a business show, where is this to promote the game, obviously to engage in socializing, know more people, the road in the future is also easy to go, everyone is basically with similar ideas to come.
In the entire main venue of E3, pokeni is the most beautiful boy.
β¦β¦
On July 8th, at 10 o'clock in the morning, the pre-exhibition press conference of the E3 electronics exhibition officially began.
Out of the cards, the first to be promoted at the press conference was Neon's legendary game manufacturer, which is now the world's No. 1 selling No. 1 game.
In fact, in this E3 electronics exhibition, the exhibition area for Ren Heaven is also the largest and most conspicuous.
Shigeru Miyamoto, as the spokesperson of Renten, introduced the game "Super Mario 64".
Super Mario 64 has won high praise from the live media for its innovative game design and beautiful graphics.
In the game, players take on the role of Mario as they travel through six different worlds, each with a unique theme and challenges.
The game's open-world design allows players to explore freely, looking for hidden items and secret passages.
In addition, Super Mario 64 also introduces a "3D control" system, which allows players to control Mario's actions more intuitively and realistically.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the 3D operation method of pokeni, which not only improves the fun of the game, but also improves the player's gaming experience.
The only difference is that the handle of the N64 of Rentendo has a single joystick in the lower middle position, just like flying an airplane.
It's nowhere near as comfortable as the twin sticks on the PS.
The N64 console lost almost half of its release after it was released, and if it weren't for the players' love for Super Mario there, it is estimated that many people would not want to buy the N64.
The game of Ren Heaven, coupled with the strategy of exclusivity, guarantees its own market. However, another part of the market has also been lost.
If the game had been released on PlayStation, it would have achieved at least twice as many results.
After the introduction of the N64 game console, as well as the introduction of several new games of Rentenda.
Shigeru Miyamoto also revealed that in the next year, the company will have a blockbuster game that will be released soon, and it will definitely be a feast for everyone's eyes.
Players can't help but look forward to it.
In fact, there is no need to ask, Qing Zhiyuan also knows the name of which game -
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
It can also be regarded as the starting point of the strongest myth of Ren Heaven, after the Ocarin of Time in the previous life, Zelda became a sky.
Before that, The Legend of Zelda was at best an RPG with its own unique gameplay.
However, in Ocarina of Time, Rentendo added many innovative elements to make the game 3D, and set many standards for future 3D games.
However, the standards of 3D games in this timeline are almost set by pokeni, so the only thing that Ocarina of Time can do is its gameplay and the IP influence of The Legend of Zelda.
Qing Zhiyuan said that there is no need to worry at all.
The future is destined to be the world of Pokeni.
β¦β¦
Among the pre-E3 press conferences, there are several game manufacturers that have attracted the most attention:
The first one is Ren Heaven, and the highlight of their event is Super Mario 64 3D game.
And the second one is Square Enix.
Square Enix's pre-show press conference was held in the afternoon.
Masashi Miyamoto still brings Final Fantasy 7
Final Fantasy 7 was actually released in Neon in January of this year, and in North America it will be until the end of July.
This time, Square Enix also took advantage of the opportunity of the E3 electronics show to promote.
The game sold very well as soon as it was released, and now it has sold more than 2 million copies on Neon, making it one of the best-selling games on the PS platform since the beginning of this year's New Year.
Second only to PokΓ©mon vs Light and Dark, which was released by Pokeni in February.
Final Fantasy VII reached the pinnacle of the series in terms of story, and the game has a deep portrayal of each important character.
Each character has their own background, and these unrelated people come together for the fate of the planet.
The most popular villains of all time, Sephiroth, the love-hate and mysterious protagonist Claude, the tough Barrett, and the weak Alice, the characterization of this work is one of the most successful in the history of the Final Fantasy series.
Final Fantasy VII., as a game on PlayStation, has received numerous accolades for its brand-new combat system, rich gameplay elements, 3D fantastic graphics, and shocking animations.
The launch of the game can be said to help PS consolidate the supremacy of home consoles.
If there is no pokeni, Square Enix should be a shining year this year, and without P Company, it should be Final Fantasy 7 that establishes the supremacy of PS in the field of home game consoles, not just [consolidation].
However, after avoiding a number of game masterpieces released by P companies, Masashi Miyamoto is already very happy to achieve such good results.
β¦β¦
Omega's game manufacturers, mostly PC games, were unusually bright at the pre-show press conference.
If the 95-year-old pokeni successfully opened up 3D games with a PokΓ©mon 3D world, the market for 3D games was established.
Then this E3 electronics show is a milestone in the establishment of 3D games on the PC.
Interplay brought a 3D element like Fallout, but it's still a 2D action-adventure game: it looks far worse than Pokeni's Diablo 2, but it still received a round of applause.
id Software brought "Quake", the space in the game is made of real three-dimensional space, adding a lot of exploration and fun to the game, and at the same time making a lot of innovations in the institutional way, no longer using the previous two-dimensional sub-graphics, but using a real three-dimensional three-dimensional drawing method to achieve.
Although pokeni has already used advanced 3D technology on PS to make a bunch of 3D games, on PC, "Quake" is the first one.
It is of epoch-making significance.
In addition to these games, Eidos brings Tomb Raider 2
In the game, players take on the role of Lara Croft, a brave and fearless female explorer who will embark on a journey full of dangers and challenges.
At the beginning of the game, Laura receives a mysterious letter saying that her grandfather is missing.
In search of her grandfather, Laura travels to an ancient city full of puzzles and traps. The player will need to help Lara solve these puzzles in order to move forward.
Over the course of the game, Lara will encounter a variety of enemies, including zombies, beasts, and evil enemies.
Players need to use a variety of weapons and skills to defeat these enemies.
In addition, there are many hidden treasures and secrets in the game waiting for players to discover.
As the game progresses, Laura gradually uncovers the truth behind her grandfather's disappearance.
It turned out that my grandfather had once discovered the ruins of an ancient civilization that contained a powerful artifact.
The artifact is coveted by evil forces, who kidnap their grandfather in an attempt to harness the artifact's power to fulfill their ambitions.
In order to save her grandfather and stop the plans of the forces of evil, Lara must delve into this dangerous site and wage a desperate battle against the forces of evil.
In the process, Lara will not only have to face a variety of sinister enemies, but also solve many complex puzzles.
Eventually, Lara succeeded in finding the artifact and defeating the forces of evil.
β¦β¦
The most limelight and recognized game at E3 this time should finally be considered Tomb Raider 2.
After the success of the previous game and the popularity of Laura, Eidos seized the opportunity to announce a sequel, and also chose a live model for Laura to be the spokesperson, Indo-British Rhona Maitra.
As soon as the model Rona Maitra appeared in the scene, it caused screams at the scene, and countless photographers focused their cameras on her.
No one expected that in the pre-show press conference of Tomb Raider 2 this time, Eidos would invite Rhona Maitra to serve as the model on the scene, and directly used Laura's classic look:
The cool and tight clothes and pants add a perfect figure to outline, and at the same time hold a gun in both hands, which adds a bit of heroism.
Overall, Rhona Metra is handsome and good-looking, and she won a full house as soon as she appeared.
It's as if it's not a game show, it's a movie show or some kind of fashion festival.
Rona Maitra directly stole the attention of everyone at the scene, and at the same time wasted countless films of a large number of reporters.
Boy.
Seeing this, Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but muttered to himself-
It turns out that the earliest coser station street has been around since this era?
I'm still underestimating the E3 electronics show.
He sat in his seat with his hands folded, thinking carefully about the game he had brought this time...... After some searching, Qing Zhiyuan found a helpless reality-
We don't really have any eye-catching cos.
Think about it, where does Pikachu feel sexy?
Yes! It's disgusting.
It's a pity that the company's games with brilliant female characters didn't participate, otherwise, he would have let his game's coser shine at the electronics show.
At least we'll have to compare this to Laura.
Understood, it will be arranged next year.
β¦β¦
In the live demo, Eidos showed off the various features and gameplay effects of Tomb Raider 2, where Lara can not only use various vehicles, drive, drive boats, etc., but also use different weapons to fight.
In addition to promoting the Tomb Raider game, there is also a very important purpose -
Showcase Tomb Raider 2 to promote the new voodoo graphics card developed by 3DFX.
Thanks to the voodoo graphics card, Tomb Raider 2 was able to attract the attention of the audience.
When I saw the 3D effect brought by the voodoo graphics card, the scene was boiling.
"Wow, it turns out that you can make great 3D game effects on the PC."
"What kind of graphics card is this? I'm going to buy one when I get back. Otherwise, it would be a shame if you can't play Tomb Raider 2. β
The advent of Voodoo graphics cards has made people realize that PC games may also usher in a new evolution, and also enter the 3D era, and names such as "Quake" and "Fallout" have made PC games begin to have their own exclusive influence.
β¦β¦
At the end of the first day, it seemed that all that was left in the minds of the media reporters was Laura's long legs and the poisonous name of the voodoo graphics card.
"I wonder what kind of game Pokeni will bring tomorrow?"
β¦β¦

There is another chapter in the afternoon
