Back from E3

[shertz]

I just got back from attending E3. I was there helping with Classic Gaming Expo's 'History of Videogames' booth. I took some random pics so enjoy!

I was playing their Pac-Man for almost 2 hours on one game. I showed them my score and asked if I won anything. The guy said thats a good score and went to ask his boss. He came back and said that his boss said if I break a million, I will get a free shirt >=-/ Forget it!

Thats it. There was so much to see and couldnt take too manny pics. The line to see the Nintendo Wii was 4 hours long. I'll wait for christmas when it comes out ;-)

[The Shawn]

Wow man! there's some really good pics in there.I was waiting for someone to post pictures, as I live on the othere side of the country chances are I'll never get there in person. Thanx

[Fighter17]

Are you sure that booth babes are banned from E3, because I didn't head about that information anywhere. Would be good if they were banned because it's about the games.

They're not 'banned' per say, but they are not suppose to show as much skin as they have in the past. There was definatly less booth babes this year then last year by far.

[InsaneDavid]

Would be good if they were banned because it's about the games.

I wouldn't go that far. The "my brother's friend's wife's cousin's dad's son-in-law manages a Gamestop so I got in" is what needs to freaking go.

Anyway, from what I've heard the ESA is trying to keep things a little more professional at the event. It is a trade show after all, and not a big out of control party as it had become in the past five years or so. They could learn a lot from the GDC.

[tholly]

sweet...ill have to check these out when i have more time...thanks....

[klausien]

Not to sound either ridiculous or creepy, but Morgan Webb is incredibly fucking hot! :love:

I'm glad you had a great time. Nice pictures!

[MachineGex]

Morgan Webb is hot until see talks, then its all downhill.

[Joker T]

Very nice pics.

Did you get a chance to play ps3?

Ditto

[cyberfluxor]

It looked like there were a few dupes in there, but it's all good. I liked the pics you have, they're really interesting to see any coverages of events you just can't make it to.

Dude, those are some really sexy booth babes you got. It's only 1 photo but damn it's sizzling. It's a shame they don't want to be like the auto shows and have some hot babes walking around promoting.

As for Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb, they are some pretty cool people. I don't watch X-play all the time, but they do apparently have a ton of game knowledge most of us can't stand up against whatsoever. I think there could be a better fitting show they could host as well that showcases more dimentions to their personalities and all. If I could have half their dedication towards video game, and like some others on here it would be pretty nice. And yes, Morgan Webb is really damn sexy, even when she opens her mouth.

Nice high-score btw.
