Super Freak
It's that time again. You know how it goes, except this year we can expect some big announcements regarding next-gen games by Microsoft and Sony, as well as more hardware info. Nintendo won't be holding a traditional press conference this year, but will instead offer a stream for their Nintendo Direct series of E3 announcements. All links to streams and other useful info can be found below. Have fun.
What exactly is E3?
E3 is the world's most prominent trade show for computer and video games and related products.
The show houses opportunity for game developers to show their latest projects, for retailers and distributors
to get together and for the press to get the biggest scoops.
The most exciting by far at E3 are the respective press conferences of the industry's top tier companies.
Electronic Arts, Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony and Ubisoft each year host large briefings where they show new games and hardware.
It's here where new hardware, such as Wii U, is announced.
