E3 for the gaming industry only? What????

I recently heard that to be able to go to E3 you have to be a member of the gaming industry. This is totally stupid. I was planning to go next year to E3 2005 but to find out that I couldn' t go. I wouldn' t even mind paying a bit extra to just get in but it' s not possible. This is like saying you can' t eat the cake without being a chef. Just stupid

Yep...of course you could find a job for a website or something and get in that way. That' s just how it' s been though. TGS is open to the public I believe, and it rocks as well.

In response to the following complaint I have decided to change my signature:

That' s how it' s always been. If you are desperate to go it is very easy to get hold of a pass. Write the odd review for a second rate website and your in.

Hehe. Good idea. I might go to the tokyo game show instead

What second rate website would you suggest?

how about kikizo.com?

haha just kidding

ooh i have a friend who lives in kent. random

Very random. Let' s try not to go off topic...

I want to go too. My school has this club and they are planning to go to E3 next year. I don' t know how but since we are a gaming school then I guess it' s possible once I hear that they can go I will join that club just to go.

A gaming school? What?

Oh and Art school but most people are in it for getting jobs to work in the Vidoe Game Industry including me. Wether it be Media Arts & Animation to Video Game Design they are both the same except Media Arts & Animation is more open and can include many more things. Right now I am not doing so well... I failed too many classes and I am now so far behinds most of my friends are doing well and are on track.. I hope they don' t forget about me when they go off... *Cries*

I hope this isn' t personal. How old are you and where abouts is it? I would consider coming. Lol

Oh I am 20 and it' s called Art Institute. I go to the one in Washington. There are several of them around the states.

Oh. Lol. I thought you meant a high school sort of thing. Damn why do I live in the Uk!

Not to sound elitist or anything but once you see the crowds at E3 you' ll thank your lucky stars that it' s not completely open to the public ;)

Hehe. I would probably be crushed to death! I might as well just sit in my sofa waiting for the games to come to me when they come out! Lol
