- UtopiaInTheSky, on 05/21/2008, -3/+63At first I thought the TakeTwo and "EA Hostile Takeover" room was the best part. But then I spotted the PSP room adjacent to the ***** and found a whole new level of funny.
- luke16, on 05/21/2008, -2/+61On a more serious note: Whos idea was it to make E3 suck? E3 use to be that yearly event that everyone talked about. Now it has just turned into corporate bull *****.
Bring back hot japanese booth babes please. - JerryAscione, on 05/21/2008, -1/+32Dugg for the fact there are exits everywhere.
- Aeron, on 05/21/2008, -3/+31bring back the booth babes and the chaos, it used to be exciting
- louiebaur, on 05/21/2008, -6/+34I am sure the LOL sega booth will be packed
- chkdg8, on 05/21/2008, -3/+20Dugg for the RROD booth at the front entrance, Atari's cross on it's grave and PSP by the outhouses. Genius.

- Remmiz, on 05/21/2008, -3/+17Now it's PAX.
- Surferess, on 05/21/2008, -2/+15Wow this show is REALLY going to suck bad!
- sexybobo, on 05/21/2008, -1/+14http://img53.imageshack.us/img53/2766/e3mapxa5.jpg
- inactive, on 05/21/2008, -1/+13What do you mean blank cheezy games? Personally I'm looking forward to Burnout 18, Madden 2012, Battlefield: Bad Bad Battles 12, Harry Potter and the Neverending Sequel of Shuggoth, and everyone's favorite, The Sims: European Vacation Tourguide.
- inactive, on 05/21/2008, -4/+13Yeah.......its because EA bought up a bunch of studios, so what used to be 100 boths of great gaming, is just 1 booth of blank, cheezy games...
- sexybobo, on 05/21/2008, -1/+8Site taking forever to load.
Mirror http://img53.imageshack.us/img53/2766/e3mapxa5.jpg - Remmiz, on 05/21/2008, -1/+8Mirror by chance? Work filter classifies this website as Pornography for some reason...
- saunders45, on 05/21/2008, -2/+8EA Sux...
- rowlodge, on 05/21/2008, -1/+6kinda dead, isn't it...
i hope they announce a whole bunch of ps3 price reductions this time. - nard3456, on 05/21/2008, -1/+5It says on the bottom of the picture, July 15-17
- Klarth, on 05/21/2008, -1/+5Hardcore christian boarding school filter says lifehacker = "illegal computer hacking" and youtube = "illegal pornography".
I am considering becoming some kind of activist after ten years of this - junk2006, on 05/21/2008, -3/+7Noooooooooooo don't let EA takeover take 2 I want to play the improved allpro-2k10
- cesclaveria, on 05/21/2008, -1/+4I always wanted to go to the E3, so bad it turned into this boring business convention related to video games.
changing the topic a little, is PAX really that good? I've heard from some people that it is like the E3 of old days, is that true? - twignificant, on 05/21/2008, -1/+4Dugg for the all-too-appropriate "Sex-Guessing-Hutch."
- billygreen23, on 05/21/2008, -1/+4I went to CES this last January and it was a complete waste of time.
- cr4wl3r, on 05/21/2008, -2/+5I totally agree. I was going to go (for the first time) the year after the last good year, and then they announced that they were changing it and I was like "Fuuuck".
- unionaire, on 05/21/2008, -2/+5after assasin's creed? yes they suck.
Game's got killer graphics, but horrible playing experience. - jpop, on 05/21/2008, -0/+3I think E3 was on the downswing, and the banning of the booth babes, then shipping it off to multiple hotels/warehouses killed it.
Issue 1: It was less industry and more public. The original intent was for industry to get together to make their deals. It expanded out to more a PR setup.
Issue 2: The larger companies (right or wrong) felt that they'd get better PR for less money if they were the sole info in the news vs. having it diluted by hundreds of companies. So they started to do their big announcements at other areas vs E3. - gweedo767, on 05/21/2008, -0/+3I have to say...I am kinda sad about all this. I fondly recall years of taking my lunch break at a specific time to watch the Nintendo Press Conference each May (then watch the others when I have time). I loved the flood of news, it was great. I fully understand why it had to die and the publisher based events do give better data/info spread over time...but I will still miss it.
- Gutterpunk, on 05/21/2008, -1/+3Tell that to the public that was there before last year and generating more word of mouth/forum talk/blog posts than anything the press will ever be able to do.
- inactive, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2Soon it'll be so ass they'll have to change the name from E3 to EA
- tylermenezes, on 05/21/2008, -1/+3I mirrored it for you: http://mirrors.tylerm.info/E3map.jpg
- zizzy, on 05/21/2008, -1/+3Sometimes I forget why we have a Gaming topic...
- crazyjake, on 05/21/2008, -1/+3Dugg for the Square Enix section!
- swings1940, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2I LOL'd at the PSP placement as well.
- 4crCoffee, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2I had the chance to go to the last good year :)
- inactive, on 05/21/2008, -1/+3I BEG TO DIFFER
- tendonut, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2My work filter classifies Gizmodo and Joystiq as porn, and Wiki/Jinx as hacking. Are you by any chance using an Erie 1 BOCES connection?
Lawl - b-dizzle, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2PC nerds section, duh.
- Gutterpunk, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2Did you play their game lately? They are trying too hard to be the new EA
- Lunarbunny, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2I couldn't compare it to E3 (I turned 18 when they crapified it) but PAX is definitely awesome. I've gone to PAX for the last 2 years (it'd be criminal if I didn't, considering how close it is), and thoroughly enjoyed myself at both. Also gotten about $800 in free ***** too :D (results not typical)
- metroidragon, on 05/21/2008, -1/+3top right > bathrooms | PSP
- b-dizzle, on 05/21/2008, -0/+2I like how the Xbox booth is shaped like an RRoD.
- pond70, on 05/21/2008, -3/+4LOL .....
- KMartSheriff, on 05/21/2008, -0/+1It still amazes me how many ***** expansion packs The Sims has.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sims_2#Core_game
The core game alone has like 5 separate version. - Drull, on 05/21/2008, -3/+4Down already :(
Duggmirror didn't catch it. - Pahtcub, on 05/21/2008, -0/+1Where's the "Valve" blow job booth?
- atomicrobot, on 05/21/2008, -1/+2E3 is dead.
Long live E3. - Haz3rd, on 05/22/2008, -0/+1Well considering the picture never loaded, I never saw. Besides, it was a joke, meaning I didn't know when E3 was because it's gone so down hill.
- XSVfan, on 05/21/2008, -1/+2Didn't you learn from Crysis that it's all about the graphics?
- Bei337, on 05/22/2008, -0/+1And at the bottom where it says "Los Angele's Largest Janitor Closet"
- b-dizzle, on 05/21/2008, -0/+1TOR, my friend, TOR.
