Synthia Weires
By Synthia Weires, Community Manager

In this edition of Chalk Talk we will be discussing your hopes, dreams, fears, concerns, and expectations for E3 2013.

Your assignment is to write up and editorial reflecting on the upcoming Electronic Entertainment Expo. Deadline to have your entries submitted for this Chalk Talk features is Saturday, June 8th.

Need help becoming inspired? Consider the following topics:

- What does Nintendo need to do to regain lost traction. What does M$ have to do to regain our trust and calm our fears. And what does the PS4 have to do to keep moving forward?

- What are you expecting from the new IP's that are expected to show during E3? Do you have high hopes or calculated concerns in regards to these new titles?

- Consider the cost of progression. Given the recent concerns regarding privacy surrounding the X1 (and possibly the PS4) do you feel that we are becoming dangerously dependent on being connected?

- What are the games that you are most excited to see this year at E3? Which do you think will be the game to win over the people choice awards, becoming a day one purchase for core gamers?

- Are you excited about the new shows being generated around and about E3? If not, what do you expect to see from news outlets to help re-ignite your spark?

Chalk Talk submissions must include the following:
- Entries must be a minimum of 500 words.
- Do not use altered text fonts, colors, and be aware of your formatting.
- Select at least one 400x400 image to act as a "cover shot".

Submissions are due by June 8th, at 5:00pm PST, please submit as either a link in the comments below or in the official announcement in the Writers Round Table.
