Electronic Entertainment Expo, better known as E3, for 2011 will be starting June 7 (Tuesday) to June 9 (Thursday). Those who do not know what E3 is about, it's the "world's premier trade show for computer and video games and related products. This year it'll be at the Los Angeles Convention Center, with major video game publishers and other technology companies debuting or selling their products, including Activision (Modern Warfare 3?), Alienware, Bethesda Softworks, Creative Labs, Disney Interactive, Equinix, G4, Mad Catz, Microsoft, Mojang (for you Minecraft players), Take-Two Interactive, and X-Games. For a complete exhibitor list, please go here.

On June 6, four major electronic companies will be having their Press Conferences, starting with Microsoft at 9:30 AM- 11 AM PST, followed by EA from 12:30-1:30 PM PST. Ubisoft is third at 2:30-3:45 PM PST, ending with Sony from 5-7 PM PST. Nintendo will be having theirs the next morning, from 9-11 AM PST. Gamer blogs and online news will be hosting their own live streams or blogs of the event. The one that I usually watch is Gamespot's E3, which usually invite various game makers to showcase their latest and greatest. Another one I like to watch is Cnet, showing off some of the tech goodies that manufacturers are making (new tablets? TVs? Cameras?)

Do you plan on attending of watching the event, and if you're going to watch it, what website are you going to view it on? (Unless you're going to watch G4)
 
I plan on using Joystiq and GameTrailers for E3 info. I'm mostly interested to learn about the new Nintendo console and OnLive stuff. Other than that, I'm not really excited. I'm only really looking forward to TERA and Phantasy Star Online 2, and I know TERA wont tell me when they are releasing during E3, and I don't think PSO2 is going to be there.
 
I'm still getting ads and deals from OnLive. Never did sign up formally, but I did sign up for being a beta tester and an early adopter (which I never followed through on unfortunately). So I keep getting discount deals via email.
 
Things I'm waiting for: NGP confirmed price and 3g carrier, Sony to start talking about the PS4 (pretty much a given since new xbox is indev), Burnout 8 (or is it 7?), anything from Valve (ep3 FINALLY anyone?), Mojangs new RPG, Tactical Intervention release date, Mirrors Edge 2, more Battlefield 3 goodies, Grand Theft Auto 5, Ghost Recon Future Soldier, and new Rainbow 6 title.

Theres probably more that I forgot about.

edit: Valves not on the list ;_-(

I always miss it each year, this time I am going to try and watch it somewhere but I need to find where...
 
Watching for anything on Skyrim, any info on the new nintendo console, Rage info, Sc2:Heart of the swarm stuff etc.

Will watch all of the console makers keynotes.
 
Probably going to watch the streams on gamespot. But I usually bounce around gametrailers, g4, and engadget.
 
Getting closer to E3. Saw that they may unveil some more goodies about SWTOR at E3, and some more stuff about iNfamous 2.
 
Some games I have been waiting for SWTOR . . . ever since kotor 2 got released. Blizzards new MMO, THe possiblilty of Warcraft 4, The new LOTR game: War in the north. And much much more. cant wait!
 
I will be waking up early to see the Microsoft conference, and maybe watching the Sony one later.
 
Im expecting a new console from sony, due to the fact that they have to rethink over all networking security which I believe is impossible on the PS3 console.
 
For sure gonna catch the MS and Sony P.C.s. Looking forward to more info on a lot of games. BF3, Diablo 3, Skyrim, SW:TOR, and Blizzard's next MMO mostly. But I am interested in it all really. My main hope is that MS one of these days is going to announce linking Games for Windows through steam and XBL and make it so you can play on windows and it will affect all the XBL stuff including your gamerscore. That would be my ideal announcement. Probably going to do both G4 and Gamespot for my streams/info.
 
I plan on watching live streams of all 3 major gaming players. This will be the third consecutive year I do so. While not yet set in stone, I plan on sifting through gametrailers.com, gamespot.com, and possibly g4. Currently salivating over impending BF3 details. :P
 
I'm not really interested this year. I'm hoping to watch the Sony and Nintendo Press Conference, and that might be it for me this year. Maybe I'll look for BF3 and MW3 info, other than that I'm not super excited about anything.
 
eGO watching party? I will be here posting on my thoughts during the PCs. If anyone feels like it that would be fun.
