Dude, quit the pompous holier-than-thou routine. G4 gets in because THEY ARE JOURNALISTS, and if you haven't noticed, the DO film the games. Everything else at E3 is window dressing. E3 is a showcase primarily to generate hype, not a free-play fun time. E3 is DESIGNED for journalists to report, thereby generating hype for new games and systems. And saying gamers "deserve" anything as if they are better than any other type of person is just stupid.

And you still haven't come up with a solution to how you can have several THOUSAND extra people in the LA convention center without breaking down the walls.

And people, this is why I hate the entitlement culture. "I deserve it! I'm too lazy to get an actual job in the industry to get into E3, so they should open it to the public!"


Dumbass, they need a bigger venue. And don't give me your pompus holier-than-thou-routine, you stupid son of a bitch! Sitting there behind your keyboard you have the audacity to accuse me of being lazy. I have no desire to be a journalist or game developer, but with all the dollars I've shelled out to the industry over the years, I (and every other dedicated gamer) sure as hell deserve it. And to the other point, some of the worst games ever have received the greatest amount of hype. I think letting the public in would also serve to filter some of the products that the industry churns out.
