Bit of hilarious Uncharted 3 trailer from TGS 2011!
With PAX under way some of the years best industry events are set to wrap up for 2012. With the last big event for the gaming industry coming in at the fifth spot on the list. We take a look at what exactly makes these events so breath taking. The gaming industry has all sorts of events however the ones that are listed are made for the entire gaming industry. In which every major developer is in attendance as well as some of gamings AAA titles. Just don’t expect events like Blizzcon, Quakecon, or even COD XP to be on the list. As stated earlier these events are for every game not just a company creating a con for their title. Lets start off the list with a notable mention.
E3 is of course the best out of any event out there! I also really enjoyed call of duty XP, there has just never been another event like it. I am praying it will return someday. Street fighter fight club was pretty sweet too :) I just love gaming events!
I love tuning into E3 every year, the event tends to make the biggest announcements in the the game industry.
Unfortunately, I haven't gotten the chance to go to any of these yet, but Dragon Con had some interesting gaming stuff this year. Its video game track seems to be getting stronger.

As I walked into E3 six months ago I noticed one thing in common with almost all the attractions for a company, women dressed in very tight and short clothing. Now I guess Living with a woman who is for gender equality and everything–my view point is no longer the same as my peers...
Men like women. Men will go where the women are. Men like games. Men go where the games are. Put them together and the entire male race shows up. Just get over it. Those women are not being forced to do that. It is their job. If it works for marketing why complain?
while i agree with you, the author is trying to say that if we want to be taken seriously as an industry, we must get past the use of booth babes and instead let the games speak for themselves in a professional environment. I also doubt booth babes will go away but it kinda makes video game conventions look similar to the adult industry.
While what the author of the article said may hold some truth. It's really no different to cheer leading and F1 pit lane girls. Gaming is entertainment too and actually engages the same part of the brain as sex and lust, so for better or worse I don't see it changing any time soon.
It's all about attraction. They stick with what works. It brings in the money. Can tu really blame them for it? I dont go to those for the boobs and my gf goes with me cuz she's a mild gamer but sex sells. We may not like it but it's true.
I don't know. I don't like the implication that men will just gravitate towards anything with boobs on it. I'm a gamer, I'll go to a gaming expo to look at games because I enjoy games as a hobby. Not because a bunch of scantily clad ladies are there. I don't base my purchases on whether or not there are sexy ladies selling it to me. I buy games based on how good the game itself looks.
I hate that game developers seem to think we're all just mindless animals who think with our dicks and will buy anything with boobs and asses attached to it. No wonder the gaming industry is thought of as juvenile by the general public. >_<
Just another small-time website trying to get some hits. Nothing to see here, please move along.
