Neal,

Any chance you can visit with TA to see if they will flip us a fish on what's on the horizon?

Thanks

HI Neal, Thanks for the great insights so far, Tesseraction said this about their E3 participation in the ERT forum

"Well, it looks like we won't be in a booth. Dreamcatcher didn't plan on any of our upcoming projects as part of the booth and our Australian partners aren't having a booth this year.

We will generally be found in the South Hall Starbucks area (the unofficial office) in meetings shopping our upcoming products. We haven't done the official announcements yet, but Chapter 2 of Enigma singleplayer is one of the pieces of the puzzle."

Hope that helps
Thanks

Hmmm.... Dreamcatcher doesn't sound very supportive Confused

And brother they aren't. We are having a great show in spite of it.

I have to say...Ubisoft is doing it right for SHIII - it is fantastic.

I tucked my badge inside my shirt and got the full tour of the game. It's really really nice. They don't have some of the hardcore sim features implemented yet (TDC for example) - so the game plays just like E:RT (I love that...) - with LOTS more in-depth features. I am currently entering fanboy status for SHIII.

Cheers all. If you are at E3...look for me in the SOUTH HALL STARBUCKS AREA - 6' Grey button up shirt today - black hair - salt and pepper goatee.

Hey! Don't forget ToW (aka "E:RT fanboi Central) when you update! Smile

I would update but I usually only have time to do one. I have a registration here that I remember the login for as well.

It's been a good show for us. We have met some terrific people here and are building a good solid team of pr/marketing/talent for the enigma projects. Tired as hell right now, but hey, it's only 1x per year right.

Sorry I didn't get to meet Neal. I'm hanging out in the "WiFi lounge" till the end of the show - Black pants, white short sleeve shirt, bags under the eyes...you'll recognize me.

Dreamcatcher gets ERT great shelf space. I see ERT just about everywhere, in good position, and still at full price. You wouldn't fare nearly that well with Ubisoft in the shelf space department. Yep

I agree with you on that account and I have few complaints about how Enigma was handled at retail by Dreamcatcher. I was referring to long term participation. We've been like a fire and forget title for them, wish it was different.

I did meet with them and have a glimmer of hope that Dreamcatcher really does want to partner with us, but...time will tell.

East,

sorry, I didn't read this thread until now, I blew a great opportunity to meet you Sad

Well, we'll make it happen someday.
