It's almost E3! It's almost E3! To get you all hyped up for the event starting in only a few days, we've got some pictures of how the site in California looks now. Look at all the boxes! What do they hold? Nintendo Wiis? Sony PS3s? Reggie Fils-Aime? Weapons of Mass Destruction? If you want to see just how much stuff there is, check out the thumbnails. Sadly, it doesn't look like the stairs are painted this year. Check out the two pictures below for the craziness that Nintendo did to get Zelda: Twilight Princess on everybody's mind!

So umm..

Where's Microsoft? Are they even going? Yeh, sure they are! DUH! They only need two boxes to showcase whats coming up this year. One with 360 and one with Halo 3. *insert laugh here* nah juss playing - all i can say is that Sony have some heavy duty business at E3 this week - O.o the boxessss so many >

Where's SONY?

Post some SONY pics, they have staircase art as well, they also have GIANT advertisements on the whole building, with the slogan: "Play Beyond" , there's one with skateboarder going to ride down the canyon - it's easy to notice that SONY isn't on E3, SONY IS E3.

I wish i was old enough to go T_________T

Times

Los Angeles is 8 hours behind England. So it opens at whatever time it does plus eight hours on Monday for all the people in England (and add however many more hours for mainland Europe).

Re: People who never read the story

All pictures above the text are from this year. The two pictures below the text are from last year.

Stairs...

I believe the print on the stairs are adhesive printouts of some kind, so they could be applied as late as Tues night if need be... That's just too much advertising (and advertising dollars for the show) to not be used... I bet there's something there some Wed morning. I'll be there on Tues helping to set up a booth, I'll try to sneak some pics if there aren't people preventing it...

READ people... Please, learn to READ

No, the pictures are NOT from 2005. _ONLY_ he pictures of the stairs are, can't you people read? Look at the picture of the Convention Center sign: E3 May 10-12. In 2005 it was the 18th - 20th. Damn, this sure shows the average intelligence of the readers of this site....
