@@KahlebKensinger Whole thing was legitimate hype. At least 100 people of the audience were regular gamers who were lucky enough to be invited by Sony. Adam Sessler was sitting right behind me. The experience was just unreal.
@@neomaxmlc That is awesome to hear! I'd like to have your opinion though: how much things in general that have stood out to you there, that is really outdated today?
I only came to know the Portal series through Portal 2 years after it was released, but Portal 2 became my favourite game of all time and watching this announcement and the trailer (especially the music) still gives me chills. :)
Only now did I notice that if you pay attention to the way Gabe talks about Video Games changing from a Product to a Service that it dawns on me that all the game developers/publishers where planning way before to make games services rather than great products. I recently watched a few game announcement videos from 2009-2012 and they all showed the signs of Games as a Service.
It's that time of the year again, I see. Also quick plug (don't worry it isn't Shadow Raid: Legends) If you find the time, please check out my friend @From Joshy's gaming/review channel. He puts a lot of effort into his videos and deserves more views than the video I ultimately ripped from gametrailers nine years ago ruclips.net/channel/UCTafH5RI2DvYcWjUMH6Fzuwvideos
This is honestly my favorite moment, however, it's honestly something that terrifies me, the moment "games as a service" *really* started to take off, when this downwards spiral of the industry happened.

My God, I remember being so excited for this game when I was in like 5th grade. Now I'm in college and watching the trailers still give me the chills. I also feel like I just got this game, before my family moved around. I think for me, Portal 2 is my game of the decade!
Gosh this is so cool. It’s amazing to listen to this and think about what has happened since he said these words. I didn’t realize it at the time but we truly have gone through (in our lifetime) a transition from entertainment as a product (buy your game or movie or album) to entertainment as a service (Netflix, Hulu, Xbox Game Pass, Spotify) I was just a stupid kid in high school who was excited for a game to come to a console but it’s cool to see how correct Gabe was in a time before it was obvious to say
It's hilarious to me how he initially trash-talked the PS3 and then not only went on board with porting Portal 2 (say that seven times fast) but as you said, accurately conveyed the future landscape of gaming. Never really noted that portion of his speech until now, but that's pretty crazy actually
1:08 I remember at the time of watching this I thought "oooo progression!" but now that we've seen the results of this, this feels more like a warning than an announcement.
Now if only Half-Life 3 will be announced like this in E3 2015 :In the middle of someone speaking, G-Man greets us all and the Half-Life 3 logo shows up. This is my dream and my wish to our Lord and Savior GabeN.
