    Who is watching this? Does anyone besides C-level execs at gaming companies even care about this?

          It was truly a sad moment when the final E3 ended.

          Now everything is split into a trillion different streams for each platform, and then occasionally for award shows they announce random stuff there too.

      It’s not even a real award show. It’s a bunch of commercials.
