The era of E3 is quickly coming to an end. However, according to its current main competitor Geoff Keighley, event producer, Summer Games Festival it certainly should not be because of him, although at first glance it might seem so. After all, his show is a really strong presentation, which, of course, is not as demanding on finances as E3, for everyone involved.
On the VGC podcast server, he was asked if the reason for the closure of E3 was the strong competition in the form of Summer Games Festival. Kaylee replied:I think E3 killed itself in a way. I understand why people say that [SGF zabil E3], but I think at least we created Summer Game Fest. Summer Game Fest is here because I saw the wheels of a van fall off at E3.“
He himself had a very tense relationship with E3. However, he believes that regardless of his Summer Games Festival the famous event would go to the bottom. According to him, he never planned to compete with the legendary show. Actually, at first he just wanted to improvise and inform the community about the news from the gaming world, which he briefly commented as follows:E3 was canceled in 2020 after I pulled out due to the pandemic and I started hosting Summer Game Fest at home in my spare bedroom not really knowing what I was doing – we were just trying to figure out a way to get the news out to the audience. fans.“His first priority should have been to support the gaming industry, to which he should be committed.

Here I am at 15 at the first ever E3 in 1995.
E3 meant so much to me and to so many of you.
Four years ago, I realized that E3 was not evolving because it needed to compete in a global digital world. So we started building what’s next. See in @summergamefest June 8 pic.twitter.com/wSZqpz3wjY
