IRC in last years thread someone said they are not allowed to use panels on that building, they have to actually paint the ad so it takes time to finish.

WHOA seriously Paint like a human painting these things!?? Man that could take a long time and cost a shitload!
 
Remember when E3 changed a few years ago to a smaller, more intimate event without all the glitz and glamour?

I'm so glad that was short lived because that was boring as hell.

Got that same poster from Gamestop though with all the 'preorder markings'
I'm pretty sure it's the cover art which works really well. It gives GTA box art vibes while still looking very different.


Can't wait to see the stairs. And then Keith Apicary going down them

The biggest problem was it was invite-only, and they didn't invite small developers to it. And there was very limited floor space, so big companies wouldn't show off their small games.
 
Yeah, Nintendo spends all their money on their booth

Note that the word "Nintendo" there is actually animating (Nintendo is king of the projector)

But I also want something big ouside :(
At least the have the best booths and e3 presentations spectacular wise.
Would be awesome if this time they use the same technology as in disney parks with the big ass projectors that make the building move and have characters, that would be awesome.
In fact, one year they have to secure the whole front building instead of sony, and as they never show anything because of secrets just put projectors that show it when the time comes and have a fully animated giant ad.

Check out what Nintendo did in their booth in 2005 - an interactive floor, complete with fish and spiders that would react to you

Gamekyo took the photo from where the bear originated. I don't know if they will attend E3 this year and take another round of photos, but it would be nice to have an updated version of that paint tear or whatever it is. FStop7 talked about driving by, perhaps he/she can take a pic.

Oh, and the thread where it all started: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=432505

LA Gaf should make a shrine out of that wall so gaffers from other parts can pilgrimage.

Also, publishers picked the press that could come so most companies only invited members of the press that traditionally gave them positive coverage and black listed any members of the gaming press who had spoken out against their games.

I wish Nintendo would have bought the main sign space since WiiU is a big deal, but I guess they really don't need it. I mean, remember E3 2006? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGlvLQzvJNA

?

We still don't know who has the main sign yet on the outside main entrance. Sony's is the second entrance, not the main one. The main one has the E3 banner below it.
 
Really looking forward to E3 ( it's the most wonderful time of the year ...innit ? )
But the only problem is....I'm going to a holidaycamp next week and I won't have access to the internet or any kind of media. By the time you guys will know that the WiiU is about, a pile of supersecret AAA-titles are revealed and the Orbis and Durango are also gonna launch this year lol, I will be wandering in the woods, or will be making a fireplace. "The horror. The horror"

The biggest place on the convention centre is taken by... the PlayStation logo? How bland is that?

In the past signs have changed, keep in mind - last year, for instance, most of the ads inside the walkway between the two halls were for THQ stuff prior to Sony's conference. After Sony's conference they were all switched to Sony ones with their new announcements on for Tuesday and the rest of the show.

They've never changed one of the huge ones before, but it's not impossible - that particular one is just a giant roll-down, and last year's went up in the space of 4 hours or so.

So uh, is this the thread to be in to get the leaks first and start my E3 fix? :p Oddly I remember previous E3s having tidbits or hints here and there exposed by pictures at the venue beforehand.
