Simple really, what you got planned for this years E3?

I've got my mate coming round on Monday for the conferences and some gaming in between. Plenty of beer, pizza and lolz.
Girlfriends working so don't need to worry about her being bored. Should be epic.

Tuesdays Nintendo conference will be a solitary event though.

I'll be on here for the bants though.

Me and the rest of ONMix are going to VOIP it up.

Getting the snacks in too.

I'll probably watch the MS and EA conferences Monday night, hopefully MS will show hardcore Kinect games and EA will show the non-MS games I'll be getting for 360 in the next 12 months.

I'll join in the Nintendo conference half way just for Cafe. I won't bother with Sony's, half an hour of someone playing Sorcery will send me to sleep.

Going to possibly have a Live party chat for the Konami conference starting soon.
Friend (possibly friends) coming over on Monday for MS, EA, Ubisoft and Sony conferences, probably get a takeaway too. Then they're over again for Nintendo on Tuesday evening. Full screen video feed on my computer, a laptop each for browsing the forums at the same time (we so nerdy, lol).
Can't wait!

A man after my own heart.
I've only really got the one mate thats interested enough to watch the conferences.
All the others couldn't give a gooseberry fool about gaming.

None of my mates are into gaming anymore, and whenever I mention gaming they always ask if they're making another SEGA.

I NEVER want to have kids if that's what it does to you.

I like the thought of watching E3 with the family one day.

Oh yeah, like, not my parents and sister lol.

That sounds awesome! My E3 shenanigans shall be spent forever alone

I've made sure I'm totally free on the conference days and shall be attending an E3 party with my friends with lots of food. Can not wait!

The post-conference stuff is usually better, HD images and more comprehensive details.

Definitely. The conferences are great for MEGATON forum banter but if I actually want to know a bit more about a specific game and to see it properly in action, gamespot's stage demos are usually what I take a look at.

Totally. It's like TV news. You don't watch it for all the in-depth details of every event, there's newspapers for that. It's just to see the most important stuff highlighted.

That's missing the point, though. Watching the E3 conferences is all about the forum bants and the OH MY GAWD announcements.

Probably miss the first two as I have an exam on Tuesday morning. Then back for the Nintendo Conference Live, which should be the best. Hopefully before that I can digest the details of what happened the night before.

True, as there's no sound on either my laptop or home PC (don't buy Compaq's people) I'll be following most of it on the forums.

Will wait for the news on M$ and Sony but shall be watching the Nintendo conference live on here like the past few years.

Pot of tea on hand of course.

I will be having beer and snacks for the Nintendo conference.

I'll probably grab a few munchies too. It's ridiculous how much of an 'event' these conferences are becoming.

Favourite time of year.
