"The show's best party is...?"
CG Crystal Ball Says: The B4 Party at the Cat and the Fiddle. For years now, journalists have been flying to LA a day early just for the B4 soiree. It's like a little oasis for us, a port in the storm, if you will.
"And the worst game of E3 will be...?"
The worst game of E3:
This Is Vegas. If Midway's ill-conceived, poorly executed open-world game actually turns out to be good, we promise to eat eight copies of
Scarface, including the instruction booklets.
"Finally: Is this the end of E3?"
CG Crystal Ball Says: It certainly feels like it. With other conventions and conferences like GDC and PAX gaining in strength each year, it seems that the wheezing E3, like an old, sick elephant, has come back to its old home to die. R.I.P., E3.
