E3 is considered by many to be a gaming Mecca, and the annual trip to Los Angeles their Hajj. Unfortunately for them, E3 management is clamping down on media badge assignments this year, and a lot of people from small sites aren’t going to be able to attend the 2011 Expo...and I don’t think this is entirely a bad thing.
As of right now, there are no monopolies in the games industry, and for the sake of the medium as a whole, they never should either.
And yet the biggest tech companies in America are essentially that. They buy up all the small comps only to kill them off and steal what they have, and if they can't buy em they bleed them to death.
They buy IPs not talent. That's why these buyouts never work and the IPs die. Right now it's too expensive to develop games - but I expect that to shift maybe as AI tools can make it easier. The best games have been indie games for awhile as big developers fuck their ips to death with "games as a service" -

Damn didn't know that but is the 400 for everyday of the event ?
