NEW VIDEOS ON FRIDAYS! The Warp Zone is a pop-culture sketch comedy, gaming, and music video channel.
We here at The Warp Zone have a passion for all things nerdy- video games, movies, tv shows, comics, superheroes, and anime and we love making funny videos about them!
#e3 #gaming
Big thanks to Keeps for supporting the channel! Here’s the site if you want to check them out!

Hey warp zone! How’s the channel going? I love your skits so much!
Warp Zone your channel is incredible and enjoyable 👍👍👍👍👍
You guys are awesome
He wants to kill Chaos because he works for Control.
Please just do a recap rap for Agents of SHIELD. It deserves it.
God the scathing commentary is as on point as ever.
Why can’t they have this in E3 it’s both honest and hilarious
Fun fact: You can't spell *steal* without *ea*
And you can't spell Bethesda without bug...
That doesn't actually make sense but you know what I'm saying
Steel
Styl
Styx
Damnit
You can't spell EA without paying $2.99 for the letter E
Lmao 🤣
But you can spell costumer satisfaction without ea.
"Line about inclusion" Translation: "We got in trouble." That is the truest thing I've ever seen.
Accurate
*cough cough* Ubisoft & Blizzard *cough cough*
Other translation:
We want to look like we care, for more money
Almost like franchises on pride month in a nutshell
@@Ordep_Aviaras 😂
Woah, I didn’t know John J Johns had the same office as Dick Richards.
Whaaa... It's totally different! There are different pictures on the walls! You think we can just... Magically change pictures out of their frames between shoots???
@@TheWarpZone it's totally different. There's a sonic figure on his desk
i mean Dick Richards is the head of like four different movie studios, im sire he'll stick his hands into video games eventually.
Same thing goes for Ryan George on pitch meetings the difference between the two is that one wears glasses
They almost never appear in the same room at the same time... You don't think...
"We put diversity and inclusion at the forefront of everything we do"
*We got in trouble* :D
There were lawsuits.
Yes
There are STILL ongoing lawsuits
"and thats why our games/movies suck, because we prioritized what color of skin or whats between our employees legs, instead of their actual skills and competence, in a effort to seem more progressive and inclusive"
@@scythn That's bullshit.
Crunch, toxic work environment, underpaid developers, deadlines, microtransations, overuse of DLC, exahausting open world, rushed production... THOSE ARE THE REAL ISSUES
"This could of been email." If I had a dime for every time I thought that about a meeting...
There were many showcases this year where we thought that...
Every.Single.Week...
The Warp Zone: We wanna give a big shout out to Keeps for sponsoring this video.
The Warp Zone (really means): We gotta say this, because Keeps gives us money 💰🤑
It's a wonderful product
Translation: UA-cam garbage algorithm is like rolling dice on how much we make and we want to pay rent and eat this month
Yeah... what Keeps doesn't realize is that they sponsored a video that is devaluing the credibility of the sponsor segment
bruh why you guys so tensed about keeps? its just a sponsor, every creator does it nowadays cuz youtube is absolutely garbage to their creators
@@funkydong5315 yeah at this point any sponsor that isn’t Raid shadow Legends Is ok for me 🤣
I just posted pretty much the same thing 🤣 Glad to see I wasn't the only one who noticed the blatant irony.
We need this level of commentary for EVERY E3 event from now on
You can probably replay this video after every big gaming event like E3 and see how nothing changes
@@TheWarpZoneI'm counting on it. Nice video!
@@TheWarpZoneIt's even funnier reading this now with the knowledge that e3 was cancelled because no one wanted to come since, as stated in this video, it's been proven that just doing online presentations is more effective
I am from the future, E3 is dead
I hate the hosts… because they did a great job capturing that “held at knife point” fake enthusiasm perfectly.
Thank yoooou... I think? 🙃
@@kellysparrman7073 Wait are you actually the same Kelly Sparrman in that video? Because if so that was some top notch acting
Isn’t that what’s happening to them in the video
This is 100% accurate. It's actually sad how accurate it is
Except for one thing there was one honest trailer at E3 this year, outer worlds 2.
"I will kill Chaos, that's my character arc!"
I love how this is decently after E3 but because there was time to craft the jokes this will be timeless, it can be applied to any e3 not the comedy channels that rush out their content for the next day. That’s why I like Warpzone, they comment on stuff because it’s funny, and take their time instead of jumping on the trend
Audience: So, how many "wow(s)" can you give us?
Hosts: Yes.
Honestly, I might be more likely to buy the game if they did this.
That will get the views on screens!
Hey, outer worlds 2 did it kinda…..
Outer Worlds 2 for the honest meta
You should watch the Outer Worlds 2 trailer then
Same I'll reward the honesty
EA: "So the game is awful, we're really here for just your money... yeah thanks"
We want to offer a 60 dollar game that will need another 120 dollars for all the things you want
That wasn't even the translator speaking. The EA spokesperson just came right out and said that because bathing in gamers' hatred sustains their lives and gives them eternal youth.
Hahaha Schro’s awkward Beta Max Blue smile 😆
😐😐
Lol
Sarah: "Oh my god. That looked freaking amazing."
PR Translator: "That looked terrible but if I don't act excited, they will fire me."
Company: "Diversity and inclusion is *so* important to us"
Translation: "We got in trouble"
Sounds about right
That’s why Nintendo wins E3.
Yeah. I mean. They didn't even need to mention exactly which company this was aimed at. We all know precisely which huge company best known for rpg, rts and mmorpg games is taking shit for a good reason.
Oh yeah. Have you seen what's Starfield as to offer with that?
Dont forget: Its June, better make sure our announcements feature as many rainbows as possible, to show the world that we care, for a month, for profit. Shirts, hats, logo changes, flags all the works because we care harder than the next company
Rainbow capitalism
A worker at Hasbro's MLP -unmarked sweatshop- factory: Just a month? Amateurs.
@@NotABot55 who's the likely using foreign immigrants because to pay even less than what they pay their workers
This... This is why there IS and only ever will BE ONE The Warp Zone.
If they were honest then preordering would never happen
This!
If they were honest they release the full game at launch and not have to have updates or microtranactions or dlc
I think you mean pre order incentives to mask inferior proudcts, because pre-ordering/ reserving has been around for long before games and were fine until like less than 2 decades ago
The corporate translator is so needed for streams and social media, also, corporate apology letters, and "reactions" while we're at it.
This is so true
*Lillie wears Tifa outfit* Can’t wait to wait show off how much heart I have now.
Honest Time: “Basically Experiment with idea.”
It great running into you again. I see you change your profile pic again nice
*its so warm*
@@neon13602 lmao.
This is unrealistic, there’s no such gamer named Chad.
Maybe maybe not, but I wouldn't think there is.
Allow me to introduce myself
That’s insulting I’m sure there’s a lot of chads that are gamers maybe not necessarily ones that run a E3
He’s not. He just got blackmailed to act like he was.
Wasn’t the if “blank was honest” stchick a cracked thing? No but I love this fr
That man REALLY hates chaos.
CHAOS!!!!!
Reminds me of the commercials you hear while browsing and ultimately not buying anything at Gamestop
The VFX in this were amazing... I wonder who did them :'(
What VFX? We captured this from a totally real E3 broadcast 😉
@@TheWarpZone 🫀
"This could have been an email!"
...
That made me laugh. Corporate logic bogles the mind.
How did u resist not mocking ff line "the darkness is so thick... I can taste it" 😂😂😂 that whole trailer is a goldmine of humour content
2:50 blizzard at the next blitzcon be like:
They should have brought up more that their 'Gameplay Trailer' (as ALL other trailers), have 0% gameplay in them, they are just an animated video clip, but they still name them as a 'Gameplay Trailer'.
If you look at the bottom of the Fallout 5 Teaser, it reads “GAME ENGINE FOOTAGE” :D
Love the agonized looks on the presenters as Davis translates the last bit from 5:45 on! You can almost see the last thread of their sanity snapping before your eyes!
The two people acting as the hosts freaking nailed it. I felt like I was locked in a gamestop
This is so funny, you should do this with the disaster known as LEGO con
I honestly want Davis to have the job of PR Bullshit Translator, his delivery is scathing yet hilarious
This is so true it hurts
The dedicated worker at 04.01 looks really happy...
It felt like an hour of E3 in just 7 minutes
This is the earliest I've been to warp zone
This is painfully accurate to a lot of virtual fandom events. Netflix’s Geeked Week comes to mind...
"That looked terrible. But if I don't act excited, they will fire me." 😄😄
Truer than you think 😆
5:51
Please someone help I can't smile like this anymore please they have our family's hostage
Seeing Girard in this made me happier than it had any right to.
And now… it aged poorly because of his scandal.
@mystery8820 Indeed.
Also don't forget.Endless patches,dlc,Season Pass,Demos that you can buy phisically(i'm looking at you Metal Gear Solid V Ground Zeroes,Unfinished games,etc,etc.
“We got in trouble” 🤣💀 this video is gold.
The fact that this was the actual presentation we got this year for all the games is hilarious 😂😂
If Video Ads were honest: "We dont belive in Keeps, but they give us the money we need to produce further videos. "
You could have put in a thing for the LEGO Star Wars saga game.
True but at least tt had a good reason for the delay their making finishing touches on the game and editing it to make sure it's the best lego star wars game im hoping for Mandalorian dlc or anything else that will be added to the game
@@apexmarveldchelluvabossfan7247
There will be 6 dlc packs. All are included in the deluke edition,
Mandalorian season 1 characters,
Mandalorian seasonn 2 characters,
Solo characters pack,
Rouge one character pack,
Classic characters pack, and one unknown characters pack, maybe fallen order or clone wars.
Wow, i love skits so much I subscribed to the warp zone and skits with c.
@@thegreenwizard688 I'd assume the last one is Bad Batch, maybe?
@@xzsamzilla3506
Maybe. I'd prefer it to be jedi fallen order or clone wars pack.or maybe even rebels.
I.. hate how real this is
This video feels like a MAD sketch
So this is just the outer worlds 2 trailer but extended
And sadder.
Had to watch this again after the announcement of E3 being canceled this year
Don't worry... summer games fest will have the same amount of corporate speak
You perfectly capture what it is like to be an IGN reviewer!!
THEY PREDICTED THE ACTIVISON LAWSUIT lol
😂 That's how I always believed they actually talk in secret.
The "translator" sounds like my old reaction videos to E3s & Nintendo/Pokémon Directs. lol
I thought the final fantasy bit was just a joke. They really made the character like this.
2:14 [Vietnam flashbacks of 4kids killing TCDigital]
Warp Zone: "These schills are over-hyping these products because they're paid to do so!"
Also Warp Zone: "Keeps is the best!"
That translator is more honest than half of the Entertainment Industry.
2:53 Wow, this looks an awful lot like Jirard the Completionist's office.
3:09 Well, that explains it.
Final Fantasy is currently seeing a resurgence due to Final Fantasy XIV and the announcement of Final Fantasy XVI
It is sad how accurate this is.
This video is CHAOS
3:50 “That last shot was literally from the movie Aliens.” He’s not kidding. That is the USS Sulaco used by the Colonial Marines.
Petition to put the translator in the next e3
It's cool tgat you got the Completionist here
how did they get the facial expressions, body movements, tone, and general feel of it down so well
2:44 cool detail of the G-Man and the guy from resident evil.
I had to go watch the FF trailer just to see how much "chaos" was being over exaggerated.....and was terrified to realize the answer was not at all.
I love how the people are just NOW getting on board this train. This shit's been going on for decades, and it's only NOW that they decide to bitch about it.
Well, now it's blatantly obvious to a point where even I noticed, and I'm probably the most oblivious person watching thing.
People have rose tinted glasses for those past times.
To the guys who disliked- why? This is damb hilarious awsome job guys
@Latest Obsession yeah probably
Because they'll get fired if they don't dislike it lol.
The skeleton had me ROFL 🤣
I like to think that while Davis is giving commentary, the presenters aren’t paused, those are just awkward silences.
And being stiff.
Definitely need to search more of these. Accurate, maybe. Off the wall hilarious, truly!
"This could have been an email"... Yeaaah
the people that scream ‘keep politics out of gaming’ should definitely see this. How much more political can you get than companies literally lying, and making empty promises with a smile
Those people are just mad that their political views are not being represented and its probably for the best
Shots fired
The thing is weather you like or not everything has politics you just need to look at the big picture
TAKE TWO conferences was soo unnecessary.
I just want to see games.
Shows don't tell
@@neon13602 That's an equally misguided approach
I mean what politics Pacman has?
Not everything has politics and looking for political messaging everywhere leads to dangerous rabbit holes
That fallout 5 trailer Reminded me so much of the scorcher trailers at the beginning of tropic thunder 😂
Loved it
We got in trouble is the best part
I loved the outoftime liscence plate
You outdid yourself with your talent for corporate commentary
1:02 Because you'd be wrong.
Probably the best warp zone video in years if not all time, keep up the great job you guys.
Davis you're on point with these translations!
These videos are starting to get so real.
Gods this is so much better than actual game announcements.
Final Fantasy: Chaos Chronicles sounds like a real game
The dude announcing is exactly the same as the dude from the game awards lol
Is it just me, or is the name "BetaMax Blue" a reference to the videotape storage format Betamax? I was expecting to see a Betamax VCR/tape player in the office. Seriously.
This is hilarious. Off topic but I wish I had that Cole Macgrath figure. He's one of my favorite video game heroes ever
You can't have a company HQ without two $ bags.
“This could’ve been an email, &$$#@\£$”
I feel this & I’m probably not the only one
10/10 Would love a sequel to this. Kind of has a Devolver making fun of other conf vibe
Scoots from from dnd
DC Fandome vibes
this would be hilarious done over an actual E3 event
This feels like a Devolver Digital presentation
[Reads Title of this video]
Me: I mean... can they do that? I'ma need to hear Jon "Epic Voice Guy" Bailey to cosign on this
[EPIC VOICE BEGINS VIDEO]
Me: *shocked Pikachu face*
I’m laughing but also crying
