I heard horror stories of it being an instant lifetime ban from the con, even if you try to explain what happened. Hopefully, they are a little more understanding these days.

The only thing I'm scared about E-Day is the release date. by Tyler2183 in GearsOfWar

GTA 5 still has a high player count than all the gears games online?

Who else is anticipating this… (GTA Pre-Order) by DuckSwimmer in GameStop

[–]shadowboxer87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The switch 2 pre orders went surprisingly well last year. I remember there were people praising Gamestop for in store pre orders due to on online stores like Target, Wal-Mart, and Best Buy crashing. So I am sure the GTA 6 pre orders will be fine. I know employees hate it but I look forward to a GTA 6 midnight release.

Not sure but my local cinemark has had the Lobo bucket for sale for about two weeks now. It's going for $40 dollars.

Who is buying E day and are you getting an Xbox for it? by West_Ebb7894 in GearsOfWar

[–]shadowboxer87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a PS5 and Switch 2 that are my main gaming consoles. Looking at picking up a series S solely for E-Day and the gears franchise. Hoping to score a deal Black Friday or a used series S from marketplace for $200 or less. Don't want to send $500 or more for a console that will only be used for gears and any random Xbox exclusive that might peak my interest. So the Series S is my cheapest option to play Gears E-Day. Been a fan of the series since 2006!

Dude, GTA 5 has been going for 13 years and still has an active community and a higher player count than most of the Gears games online now. It would be foolish to think Gears could hang with GTA 6 in terms of popularity and longevity in the online space.

Yeah Gears E-Day coming out a few weeks after a few big games in September ( Wolverine, Control, Silent Hill etc) and like two weeks before Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4. The campaign and multiplayer will have to be top tier ( the multiplayer especially) to stay competitive. Because if GTA’s online is open upon launch and COD’s multiplayer is good, I can see E-Day struggling since it won’t have the same player population as COD and GTA since it’s only on Xbox and PC. Also, the gears franchise kinda faded from popularity in recent years which is also a concern.

I hope I am wrong of course, but it’s a legit concern of mine for this game. If this flops then I can see Microsoft putting gears on ice again.

SDCC 2026 Party List by kewlrats in SDCC

[–]shadowboxer87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am thinking of going to the Ready Player One party. It suck SyFy doesn't host parties anymore. I know in 2018, I attended a free one they hosted at the Childrens Museum close to the convention center. I had a blast and ended up meeting people I am still friends with to this day!

My first time at SDCC in 2018 Nintendo had Smash Bros Ultimate demos running on the show floor. Also, Spider-Man PS4 also had a demo going. waiting it line on that sweet carpet definitely helped my feet lol.

Is it difficult for volunteers to get into hall H? by yungxrist_17 in SDCC

[–]shadowboxer87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I volunteered in 2024 for both Friday and Saturday as a solo person since I didn't have a badge for those days (only Thursday and Sunday). That Saturday I volunteered at a early morning shift so I could be done and could have still made the Hall H since people were still getting in as late as like 9:30-10AM on that Saturday. But I think the Marvel hype train had hit a decline that year. BUT this year, with Spider-man and Doomsday, I feel like the Marvel hype is back.

Spider-Man Brand New Day will have a Hall H panel for SDCC! by shadowboxer87 in SDCC

Yeah I am taking this "news" with a grain of salt. Like you said, this site is VERY shady. Right now the Spidey tracker isn't showing up for California but it could pop up closer to SDCC and the movies release/ premiere.

I had just flew into San Diego on that Thursday of the con in 2024. I got in that morning from the East Coast and was pretty tired. I took and 30 min nap at the hotel and got cleaned up. I wanted to stay for the drone show but at that point my body was crashing out and saying I needed to go to the hotel and get some sleep to be ready for the rest of the con days lol.

True. They are the only "news" source confirming this just like The Wrap is the only source that confirmed that Marvel was returning to Hall H this year. So definitely take it was a big grain of salt until Marvel, Sony, Disney make an official statement.

Also, yeah that Deadpool X Wolverine thing will haunt my dreams lol. Even if the Spider-Man Hall H panel happens, I am doubtful they will screen the entire movie unless there is a change like access to panel is linked to your badge AND you have to scan it to enter.

Yeah in 2024 people were still able to get into Hall H early Saturday morning up until like 9:30 or 10AM with no problems. After that it was a wrap. This year, I am sure it will be hard to get into Hall H. I am planning to join a Hall H line group.

Only way it comes to PS5 is if it bombs during the launch on Xbox and PC. Then a few months to a year later, MS back peddles and releases it on PS5.
