E3 Down for the Count?
The video-gaming industry’s super event E3, which was held annually in May at the L.A. County Convention Center, is getting downsized. According to Gamespot, it is also moving out of the LACC, and will be a feature for hundreds of fans, no longer thousands. The idea here is that since the throng is so large and many games aren’t getting their proper due at the expo, the event should be restructured as to accommodate the products on display efficiently. Quoth Gamespot:
One reason behind the downsizing of the show can be attributed to the dollar cost of the event to exhibitors, including the demands on companies to assign large numbers of staff to focus on the show, expenses associated with travel to the show, and the added expense to polish game builds and demos to be shown to attendees.
