Microsoft E3 Press Conference: July 10th 8:30pm pt

Nintendo E3 Press Conference: July 11th 9:00am pt

Sony E3 Press Conference: July 11th 11:30am pt




Live streams of the press conferences should be available at Gamestop or 1UP.com.

I really couldn't imagine going to one of these in the morning, especially 9:00 am in the morning. Does anyone remember if Nintendo has always had their conference that early?

If you get G4 Tech TV, they're showing them. I'm looking forward to not watching an online streaming version.

Wtf Nintendo, 9am is bullshat. It'll probably start an hour late as usual and end an hour late, making the press late for Sony's conference, which I'm sure will be totally unintentional.

Odd note, the Microsoft press conference is going to be... outside.

In Santa Monica? Are they going to be handing out miniature electric fans?

No it won't. They don't want the press leaving early. Check-in is at 8am, they'll start on time, most likely end at 10, and seating will begin for Sony' at 10:30.

Here's where the Microsoft press conference is going to be:

Apparently they installed a massive HD screen and surround sound.

That's not over the top at all, for a press conference.


"So Mr. Jordan, can you tell us why you think you lost the championships?"
"yes, well, you s-...hold on. I have to go slay this dragon, and get the level 5 gate key before I can get back to you guys."

That's Santa Monica High School. Leave it to a Fortune 500 company to save money and rent out a public high school during the summer months.
