Streams:

• Exclusively on Twitch:

Not exclusively on Twitch! I have the hardest time streaming with them during conferences.

 

[Z A C K]

Last night Twitch was the only source that was actually working well for me. Not on X1 though, just through PC. I'm convinced MS was somehow throttling the connection to Twitch on X1 during the Sony Conference.

Twitch on Xbox during Sony was messing up as well. Seemed to work fine later that night so might have just been hammered. I switched to my laptop and was watching someone else stream the conference/commentate on it and had to keep it at high instead of source.

 

[DarkPassenger]

Clocking in, baby. The Master Race show is about to begin.

 

[Andy]

My Twitch feed says it doesn't start for another hour. The posted time might've been wrong.

 

[DarkPassenger]

Damn. They delayed it for another hour.

 

[DarkPassenger]

Lets try this again.

 

[Obscene Jester]

I already know that the outcome of this show will be me needing a new GPU.

 

[Lucid Rifter]

I love Killing Floor 2!

 

[Obscene Jester]

Late night show format for the sophisticated gamer. PC gamers don't do s*** unless it's at a desk.

 

[The Living Tribunal]

Star Citizen. Hell Yeah!!

 

[Oblong]

First time I've ever seen a female character that was actually smokin' hot.

 

[Obscene Jester]

Star Citizen. Hell Yeah!!

Has Chris Roberts picked up a bit of a British accent?

 

[Obscene Jester]

Boring...

AMD should be talking about how they are going to improve driver support so all that tech actually works with games. Either way, this is a good way to bring this show to a grinding halt.

 

[Aqua Snake]

I just hope they're getting all the dull stuff out the way first.

 

[Andy]

Yeah, it got off to a good start. I thought, "Hey, this is interesting, I've never seen a show dedicated to PC games before." Then it suddenly became a technical discussion about graphics cards and so forth. I know AMD is the sponsor, so they want to get in there and promote, but it got boring for me (a non-PC gamer).

 

[DarkPassenger]

Deus Ex is looking incredible.

 

[Lucid Rifter]

Deus Ex...drool!

 

[Obscene Jester]

Way too much talking, way too little games.

 

[DarkPassenger]

Lol @ someone yelling Half Life 3.

 

[Lucid Rifter]

I like this format TBH.

 

[Aqua Snake]

Killer Instinct on PC confirmed.

 

[DarkPassenger]

Wrap it up, Keanu Reeves.

 

[Andy]

Glad they had a PC show. I'm going to tune out, because I didn't see much of interest to me, personally, nothing that made me want to join the master race, but I'm glad there's an E3 show for it. They need to monkey with the format to make it more entertaining somehow.

 

[pravus]

So No Mans Sky, Killer Instinct and Gears of War Ultimate Edition. Not bad.

This is the most awkward s*** ive ever seen btw.

 

[Obscene Jester]

Horrible conference.

 

[DarkPassenger]

It was boring. The Day9 host wasn't bad. He was pretty entertaining and funny. It was the lack of content that made it so boring. Too much talking about AMD's hardware and games that most PC gamers hardly care for. Nvidia/AMD/Intel and for f*ck sakes, Valve/Gaben, all need to be in collaboration for an event like this to be exciting. AMD and PC Gamer tried and I credit them for it.

Deus Ex looked in incredible. Finally, a game that will give Crysis 3's graphics a run for its money.

Are all coming to PC?

 

[pravus]

Are all coming to PC?

Absolutely.

Killer Instinct is cross-buy also. Wouldn't be surprised if Gears is as well.
