E3 2006 hub

PALGN Feature | Catch up on all the events of the big show.

From May 10th to May 12th, the Los Angeles Convention Center will be playing host to the eleventh annual Electronic Entertainment Expo. It's the ultimate red letter day in the videogame industry, bringing together tens of thousands of developers, journalists and gaming illuminati, all in the name of showing off the latest consoles and games. Last year, in an effort that was matched by few other PAL sites, we brought you well over 130 articles from the show over three Red Bull-fuelled days of non-stop typing. Luke still hasn't stopped twitching, but this year, we intend to beat that with our most excellent and comprehensive E3 coverage ever.

No doubt we'll be helped by the fact that, for the first time, we'll actually have people on the showfloor in LA. James and Lahiru have reluctantly agreed to put up with a holiday that should see them playing on the latest hardware (Sony's PlayStation 3 and Nintendo's Wii will both be there in playable form), seeing at first-hand the cutting-edge games of tomorrow, enjoying a beautiful LA summer and grabbing free swag. The sacrifices they make, etc.

The purpose of this hub is to give the stuck-at-home lot a single page that contains links to every one of our E3 and pre E3 stories. For your own convenience, we're dividing this into sections, with each day being given it's own list. Anyway, enough of that - sit back, keep your cursors on PALGN and enjoy the show this year.

NOTE: Being the hard-working and enterprising souls they are, James and Lahiru will also be keeping a blog whilst they're over there. The blog will contain unedited reports from our two staff, so make sure you check it out here.

It's when sites announce things like their temporary hubs for their coverage that I realise just how close E3 really is.

Awesome stuff.

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA HAW,

Would have really sucked to be waiting so long for a PS3 only to be a Crapbox of a machine sofar,
After seeing the new PS3 controllers today and their lack of stratagy or innovation, Im so glad I jumped on the xbox wagon at the start of this year as the 360 is still going to kick PS3s Ass even after Sony we,re given so much longer all I see is a rushed piece of crap that was jammed together fast enough for E3.

Viva La Smoke It loud and 360 I love you:P

Check out the crowds and their shadows In Gran Turismo 5 screenshots.

For crying out loud....
Have they seen the crowds in PGR3 or DOA4???
Who the Feck do Sony think they are in competion with??
Sega Mega Drive???Neo Geo??? No sorry guys your still stuck their in last gen. tsk tsk tsk. NO Good will come of this other than sony Losing ALOT of money in this venture.
Wiis even got nothing to worry about because its so Different, Fun and
New and totally intreguing PS3 on the other Hand, Leaves little to the imagination.
And yea Big UPS to gamer points on 360

theres an option not in any PS3 games.

The 360s Achievement points really do give your game a longer life and make you wanna play harder just so you can rank up, on your fave games and show off your wicked skills online
