ESA: E3 2009 'will occur'
Some will tell you they heard the solemn ringing of the death knell as it echoed through the barren halls of the LA Convention Center last week. Was this the final E3? ... This?
Nope. The Electronic Software Association has revealed its plans to organize at least one more E3 event, stopping short of actually detailing the who, where, when, and -- most pressing -- the why bother? "As we do every year, we're beginning the process of surveying exhibitors and attendees to determine potential changes to the Summit," an ESA representative told GameSpot. "Once this is completed and shared with the ESA's Board of Directors, we will make an announcement about the specifics of the 2009 E3 Media & Business Summit, which will occur."

Jajajajaja, good one
the rumor is years old i think from a tech demo. now everywhere i go some people are stating that it will be displayed in TGS or the august 2nd thing. why all of a sudden is it from nothing pre E3 hype now post E3 is it like the definate thing?
on topic: eh the fact i can't see it I really don't care which formatt as long as i get my annoucements. i think they are better served if they make it like TGS and make any person can go it will be a better use of their money.

It has to change,either be more formal and have a niche there or go back to the old style before the new Hyper events like Pax take that spot.

As for the FFVII remake hulabaloo who cares. Its just going to be more over dramatized androgynous beings (aside from Cait Sith and Red XIII...and maybe Barrett). Square has been putting it in fanboys' materia slots for years with all these crappy FFVII spin-offs.

First, its "What Happen?" there's no past tense to it. If you're going to be a blatant 360 fanboy at least get things right. Also, what good blockbuster exclusives does 360 have when you look beyond Halo and Gears? Yeah thats what I thought. Nothing.
