This year’s E3 is now over, and it showed that the new-generation consoles are still very much in their infancy as we have plenty to look forward to in the coming months (and years in some cases). While there was a much bigger focus on the games themselves, there were far fewer live demos compared to previous years, and in some cases all we saw was concept work. As a result, this messed up a few people’s choices (especially mine!) and in all made the competition far closer.
Just like last year, the winner is not the person with the most number of correct choices, but the person with the highest score. The points system was weighted towards rewarding those that chose the riskier options that we thought were less likely to happen.
You can still view the original article to see the 105 options that were available, however only 20 actually occurred. These correct options are shown below with their points shown in brackets:

To see how well you did against us, and to see who holds the bragging rights in TSA Towers for the next year, here are all the staff entries:
| Position | Name | Score |
| 1 | Kris Lipscombe | 15 |
| 2 | Blair Inglis | 12 |
| 3 | Adam Guest | 11 |
| Dan Lee | 11 | |
| Dominic Leighton | 11 | |
| 4 | Teflon | 10 |
| 5 | Aran Suddi | 9 |
| Sam Paterson | 9 | |
| 6 | gazzagb | 7 |
| Jim Hargreaves | 7 | |
| Tony Cawley | 7 | |
| 7 | Dan Jones | 6 |
| Greg Turner | 6 | |
| 8 | Peter Chapman | 5 |
| Gamoc | 5 |
So Kris clearly lead the way among the staff, with a whopping 15 points, followed by the rest of the pack. The guys that actually went to E3 (Blair, Stefan and Peter) came second, fourth and last, so quite a mixed bag there – I expect Peter will blame it on the burritos!
On now to the all important top 3 positions, as you can see, it was quite tight!
| Position | Name | Score |
| 1 | Kris (Staff) | 15 |
| Takyu | 15 | |
| 2 | MICKY17 | 13 |
| tactical20 | 13 | |
| 3 | avengerrr | 12 |
| billsmugs | 12 | |
| Blair (Staff) | 12 | |
| Charmed_Fanatic | 12 | |
| DJ Judas | 12 | |
| Eldur | 12 | |
| haz360 | 12 | |
| mrfodder | 12 | |
| NotSmartEnough | 12 | |
| ROSSWILSON17 | 12 | |
| Winkle | 12 |
Kris and Takyu deserve a round of applause then, for coming in joint first with 15 points each! You can see how close it was, with 15 members being separated by just 3 points in the top 3 positions! If you want to see the full table, head on over to Page 2.
Well that’s it for this year’s TSA E3 Bingo, hopefully you all had fun and will be joining us again next year!
Nocure-fd

Well done to the winners and as Nocure-fd said above, cheers for organising the bingo – even if i did only manage joint 9th.
camdaz
Joint 11th, I think that’s my highest finish in E3 bingo.
Well done to the winners.
wonkey-willy
Blimey I made it into the top 6..
Good game well played guys
Avenger
Joint 3rd with 12 points. Not Bad. Definitely a mixed bunch this year. Well done to the winners. 15 is super high.
DJ Judas
Joint 3rd. Pleased with that despite being foiled by my undying belief that The Last Guardian would make an appearance.
Jakster123x
Maybe I can’t count but I think I got more than 9 :) Joint 6th is consistent but I want to improve. Also, Project Beast did get a trailer.
Avenger
Yeah Project Beast did get a trailer, despite the fact it was Bloodborne. Ah well, TSA’s decision is final. Sneaky barstewards :p
gazzagb
It was difficult because we had “Project Beast Gets A Trailer” and “Bloodborne is announced and turns out to be Santa Monica’s game”, neither of which were ‘technically’ correct.
Sorry! :P
ron_mcphatty
Well done folks, remember it’s not about winning… ah who am I kidding of course it is! And I was robbed, hah!
tactical20
Well that’s a surprise! Honestly didn’t expect that! :-)
MICKY17
2nd place! Gutted but also my best finish yet :) well done Takyu and Kris. And yh wasn’t Project Beast that Bloodborne game during Sonys conference?
