No lol those events weren't actually cancelled. There will still be streams so how should we call those events? Personally going to stick with "Not E3" name like already this year. Fucking stupid corpa decisions. You want to quit the event? Then fucking quit for real, don't organize any separate conference if you have issues with E3.
They may have issues with, you know, E3 and the ESA organising it, not the idea of having a rough period when people expect big announcements.
E3 is not some abstract concept of having a big game show in June. It was a specific event, that started as a trade show for the industry and investors and became entertainment/advertisement when the organizers realized there was a lot more money to be made that way.
Until publishers just all realized they didn't need it to be heard anymore, and doing their thing was a lot easier and less expensive. Making your own conference is quitting E3.
