All things Frontier Developments at E3 2014!

I think that would have worked!

Was there any attemp to purposefully "Americanize" the poster though? They really do go booyah for words like freedom, and blazing trails.

Was it different in its original British?

And a little boy waits.

 

[SzaryWilk]

I would like to be there under the banner cool it looks.

 

[JeffRyan]

I'm waiting... for pictures and/or media.

Yeah the original tag line was

"Elite: Potter around lots of stars and be home in time for tea and crumpets"

Hah "F**KLOADS of Star Systems" was one of the contenders for the tagline on the poster. I liked it, thought it was edgy but cooler heads prevailed!

Shame. I like it. Almost Swiftian in its rapier-like intensity.

Wasn't this thread supposed to be about media from E3?

 

[fourty6to3]

I thought E3 doesn't start until tomorrow?

 

[CMDR Texas Stu]

It doesn't.
3 pages of replies so far though!

 

[Faerie]

Well, seeing as David Braben went to Cambridge University I think we can assume he's fully qualified to count very big numbers. Alternatively, he can probably send around some university chums who now work for some very secret & deadly government department, if you get my meaning.

Yes. So far we've got one picture of a banner, and we're analysing it to the point of absurdity...

Wonder what the next few days will bring.

 

[Patrick_68000]

A pretty penny I'd imagine. I think SC will have an even bigger banner, made of gold, studded with diamonds, and with "playable in 2020" in the corner

...

 

[Patrick_68000]

This year the E3 will kneel to ELITE DANGEROUS !!!

Microsoft and Sony will be also of great center of interest. And also Mario Kart 8. And the Rift Oculus.

 

[Nomadski]

I love the fact we have had 7 pages of heated debate over a promotional poster and noone has yet commented on HOW AWESOME THAT STATION LOOKS!

Its like something out of Ulysses 31!!

Spoiler

 

[Patrick_68000]

There are 10,000 stars in those 5 systems ... all of you !!!!

And the twins are double stars

Phil Spencer presents the new games on XBox One at the show at E3 in Los Angeles, Monday, June 9, 2014

 

[Asp Explorer]

Ahh the good old Yawnbox One

I don't think mine has done anything other than play Netflix for months, and even then the PitifulStation Four plays Netflix with half as many selects and smoother video.

Neither offer more ease or better picture quality than a $35 Chromecast.

Anyone want to buy a slightly dusty pair of next-gen consoles? lol

 

[Malicar]

OK I want that banner for my studio LOL

Alternatively, he can probably send around some university chums who now work for some very secret & deadly government department, if you get my meaning.

Do they have to rise through the other ranks before they can work in deadly government departments? Is there even such a thing as a mostly harmless government department?

*comes back to see if anyone else have posted an actual Elite related image from E3*
