You know something that annoys me?
There's people out there who argue that E3 conference should just be some people going up, very briefly explain their game, show the trailer and that's that. I think that's bullstuff.
Why bother have these conferences if all you're going to do is show some trailers? Part of the charm of E3 are the personalities and the people. That's what I want to see at E3. I could just see all the trailers on YouTube after the event at my convince. What I want to see is Kaz Hirai burst from the Heavens and plant one in Phil Spencer. I want to see the Reggienator kick some Aisha Tyler arse. Yeah, sometimes it comes off as awkward and cringy, but other times it's funny or awesome. E3 2013 wasn't great just because of the Sony announcements, it was great because of the characters and the way they announced it.
Also, I hear stuff about "corporate, soulless businessmen". You do realise that most of the guys who go on-stage for the games are developers, right? They're not all going to be comfortable at speaking, so they might sometimes be as stiff as a stick or nervous and shaky.
