The Electronic Entertainment Expo, commonly known as E3, managed by the Entertainment Software Association is a world re-known exhibition of technology, but he achieved his first?

17 Years, many consoles and games hit were announced here and it brought fame to many businesses around the world, however many are beginning to say that it lost relevance and soul who had exposure once. More than 40,000 people marched down to Los Angeles for day 3 event, waiting anxiously for news of the giants of the game such as Sony and Ubisoft on new consoles and games, but what est happened to other companies who are not as great as their counterparts? Many players are complaining that E3 has become nothing more that a platform to the giants of the game to release their new products rather than focusing on what it is that players want and allowing all game companies show case their products.


In 2005, when Sony announced their new console at the time, PlayStation 3, about 400 suppliers have been implemented at the Expo with more than 70 000 people invited to the event, however since numbers regularly fallen, limiting the amount of people attending the event and the number of suppliers. Although many of the game giants are happy with the event and the ability they have to promote their products, it seems that the majority of players is now forgotten. Matthew Hurst, a web developer based in Philadelphia, said that "E3 has somewhat decreased grace with real players".


Wired editor Chris Kohler .com video games, has stated that the video game industry is "coming together to look like, ' Bam! ' We are the video game industry, and we are a multi-billion dollar industry, look at how powerful that we are on the world. "" However despite the negativity, it goes further than the game giants were not such a show, the event would seem rather "soft".


Richard Taylor, one of the organizers of the event stated that the event has become "very large and frankly very expensive for exhibitors to compete in" could this possibly be considered to explain why the amount of vendors at the expo has dropped nearly 400, at just over 200.


Although each year, the giants of the game will continue to release new products to the admiration of their clients and fans, it remains to see if small companies will be be pushed around the track to allow more time and room for their larger counterparts.
