E3 Expo - From Trade Show To Sideshow
Normally, May is the month of E3 Expo, the biggest interactive video game show in the world. I have been going to E3 Expo in Los Angeles for years and have always look forward to checking out the booth babes, gaming hardware, booth babes, video games, booth babes and partying with the companies in attendance.
There is an E3 this year but it’s no longer in May and it’s no longer the big deal it was in the past. Because the big game makers (Sony, MS, Nintendo & EA) wasn’t getting the ROI they wanted from the show, E3 has now been reduced to a little sideshow in Santa Monica call E3 Media & Business Summit. The event runs July 11-13 and is by invite only. Between 3,000 to 4,000 people are expected to attend - a far cry from the 60,000+ that attended the last E3 Expo. I received an invite but I don’t think I’ll be going. E3 as a business event? Please!
For a trip down memory lane, I figure I would post some photos from last year’s E3 Expo. You won’t be seeing anything like this from E3 again.

Reply to this commentOh… hehe… somehow I missed all of the content and just paid attention to the babes…
WTF NO E3!??! Wow, I heard something about this but I didn’t really look into it. That is very sad because E3 is THE BIGGEST gaming convention! Everybody knows about it. Damn those greedy corporations. I think them pulling out will probably hurt them more than help them. Bad move for them imo. It might not hurt MS as much as the other companies though…
Reply to this commentWhy do some peoples comments appear crossed out like this?
Reply to this commentI see it in Firefox 2, but not IE 6.
Reply to this commentSame here, though if I scroll up and down again it sometimes clears them up. Weird…
Reply to this commentYa… not really sure what’s up with that. John’s site has something weird with it. Those lines appear randomly everywhere. Not sure what it is.
Reply to this commenti asked john once, he never answered
Reply to this commentIt’s something to do with my theme. I haven’t figure out how to get rid of it.
Reply to this commentJohn you’re not allowed to look at beautiful women until you fix this problem. I hate random lines!

Reply to this commentYes John, as you said on your older post, the beautiful women attract the traffic. I have tested this! I was present at an IT show last week and I made a poll with the Best Lookning Booth Babes. I’ve received traffic and attention. Nice photos!
Reply to this commentThe glory days of the booth babes. I’m afraid they’ve come and gone, at least for the tech industry.

Reply to this comment*SIGH*
I really wanted to attend an E3 at some point in my life, and when they announced all this I was so angry. There’s still another gameshow though I can’t remember the name, but it is supposed to be pretty big.
Reply to this commentJohn: what game did Jenny play ??
Reply to this commentI wasn’t looking at the game she was playing so I had no idea.

Reply to this commentI didn’t realize E3 had been downsized. I’m going to miss all the excitement. I went the last year it was held in Atlanta before consoles took over and it was a blast.
Reply to this commentHow many video games you saw?, you were looking at the girls!
I envy you!
Reply to this commentI wouldnt be interested in games, if i had been there
Reply to this commentI completely get what Jenny McCarthy was doing there, but Paris? Hmmm anyway, pretty good pictures, John. Too bad this year’s E3 won’t be as action-packed as the ones in the past.
