The E3 floor plans are part of the industry's on-going dick measuring contest - who's got the dough to toss at a couple hundred square feet in Los Angeles' poorly deodorized convention hall.
Off this year's floor plan, the top contenders are Sony, Nintendo of America and Activision in West Hall and Microsoft, Square-Enix, EA, Disney and Ubisoft in South Hall. No surprises really, though the actual special planning - notably Square-Enix's close proximity to Microsoft - might kick up a couple baseless rumors.
