So, who thinks this is real?

Good. That's what they get for not opening it to the public. Even the porn industry conventions is open to the public where you can grabs butt and boobs
 
You know what killed E3? Prudes throwing the hot E3 girls out. Who's idea was that? What a bunch of dumbasses? Even dumber is all the companies agreeing to this idea. Oh well, the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo is 100x better anyway.

Agreed. Agreed.

1.) No more Boobs Babes
2.) No access by public

Good riddance to E3. Let's hope we get a public Porno and Vidego Game convention for the public

No, letting the public in is what killed it. They never got serious about keeping the riff-raff out(do you think the real journalists give 2-hoots about the flashiness?), so everyone overextended themselves to advertise to the public.
 
After their performance at the last one, you'd think Sony would be happy about this.


Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidge Racer!
 
As someone that has gone to the last three E3 shows, I hope that it isn't canceled.

I'm going to have to go with ViRGE's answer on this one.

It sucked? How so?

What I don't understand is if they ran E3 10+ years ago in the same LA convention center when the video game industry was much smaller, how is it too expensive now when the video game industry is bigger than hollywood?

It's a matter of Return on Investment. Big publishers like EA don't feel like they are getting a good return on investment because they are having to share the floor and attention with other big publishers and small publishers and everyone else. If they are going to spend that kind of money, they want the attention on themselves and their games.

Yes, but the cost of doing the show should be more or less the same as it was 10 years ago. Rent floor space (same convention center as 10 years ago), build flashy booth, hire booth babes, and you're done. They payoff should be much higher than 10 years ago, since there's so much more people who are into video game following this stuff.

The only differences I can think of is it costs more to make an E3 build of a game since games are so much more complex now, hence why a lot of companies are just showing videos instead of having playable games. Also with the rise of the internet, it's much easier to get information out there so maybe they don't need a trade show like E3 for that purpose.
 
Yep, if it was open to the public with admission fees they could use those fees to offset the cost of setting up the exhibits while at the same time exposing themselves to a more varied audience instead of the same lame ass insiders everytime

Yah virge is spot on. I was going to go for my first time next May too 🙁
 
E3 is necessary for me to take a day off of work and go for fun to scope out the new games/hot babes.

I've gone 6 years in a row now... I never would've thought that this past year was the last. I'm sad for the booth babes.
