E3 2010 confirmed for June 15th to 17th
EA, Disney and Microsoft toast this year's show, attended by 41,000

This year's show hasn't even finished but already the ESA, organiser of E3, has named the dates for 2010's event.

The organisation also says this year's event has been a major success.

E3 2010 takes place from June 15th to 17th, once again at the Los Angeles Convention Center, USA.

'The 2009 E3 Expo was designed to better meet the needs of exhibitors and attendees by focusing on value, while maintaining the excitement and energy that fuels the $22 billion US marketplace for computer and video game entertainment,' the ESA said in a statement, adding that the next event will maintain momentum.

This year, over 41,000 attendees from 78 countries attended, seeing games and products from 216 exhibitors.

“We are pleased that this year’s E3 Expo was so successful for our members and exhibitors in terms of sales, business development and profile-building,” explained Michael Gallagher, president and CEO of the ESA.

“E3 Expo is truly the world stage and spotlight that the interactive entertainment industry has earned as a leader in entertainment. We are looking forward to building on this great momentum for 2010.”

A raft of different sized publishers toasted the new E3, including bosses from Disney, EA, South Peak and Xbox.

"The E3 Expo has returned as the premiere annual destination for the global games industry," said Graham Hopper, executive vice president and general manager, Disney Interactive Studios. "The excitement the show generates and the ability for us to showcase our portfolio to a worldwide media, retail and consumer audience is an important business driver."

Electronic Arts CEO John Riccitiello, added: “The ESA has put on a great show for the game industry. E3 2009 reflected the vitality, innovation and global presence of a rapidly growing industry. I'm already looking forward to next year's event."

“Xbox 360 was pleased to be a part of a rejuvenated E3 this year and to see the interactive entertainment industry really shine and reach new audiences,” said Don Mattrick, senior vice president, Microsoft’s Interactive Entertainment Business. “We look forward to being at E3 next year and continuing to redefine the future of home entertainment.”

“This year’s E3 exceeded expectations and SouthPeak Games was proud to be a part of it,” commented Richard Iggo, vice president for marketing at SouthPeak Interactive Corporation. “For us, E3 is about building our brand, showcasing titles, and making the business connections necessary to deliver high-quality entertainment and we were able to accomplish all of that. This is once again the industry’s launchpad for computer and video game news.”

With this year's E3 actually delivering (unlike last year), I'm definitely looking forward to E3 2010. The slightly later date doesn't really bother me.

same, it was't SUPER packed as the other years.

I really enjoyed it, my only complain is the press conference for Sony and Nintendo was on the first day of E3 when it should have been Wednesday-Friday was E3

cool.I've never been to E3, always seemed to happen during the quarter. Those days are the week after I graduate, so I should be able to attend. Or I could just stop by the convention center since it's so close by.
