Weird. Can't say that it's a bad idea though. It seems that E3, while kinda fun, is always a big mess. I'm not sure it's really helping the industry. I know that game publishers and people in the industry have to be thrilled about this, because I know E3 is always a big ball of stress for everyone involved. From the developers, to the the press, they all hate it.

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

I think like with Apple Keynotes it is stupid to only release information at specific events.

Well it sorta fed on itself till it died. I guess this makes sense. Of course, just cutting your E3 budget would too.

That's what you get for getting rid of all the almost naked chicks from the previous E3.
