´GamePro Expo´ to revive ´E3´ in its former glory?



The ´GamePro Expo´ has just been announced and looks set to replace the ´E3´ as the prime industry event, GameSpot has learned. The show will run from the 18th until the 20th of October 2007 and take place at the Los Angeles Convention Center, where the ´E3´ was held in recent years.

The ´GamePro Expo´ is organized by the magazine´s publisher, the International Data Group (IDG), and also has the approval of the Entertainment Software Association (ESA), who used to organise ´E3´.

Meanwhile. the ESA looks set to go ahead with its ´E3 Media Festival´. The event will take place in two hotels sometime in July 2007 and will target a mere 5.000 hand-picked attendees.

I have a question; won’t this just run in to the same issues that the ESA ran into. The industries leaders do note want to dedicate so much of their resources for a single show. Will a name change really make them change their minds? Also, do we really need another expo?

I just watched the recent South Park episode about Cartman´s obsession with the Wii. It´s so brilliant, I just had to post the link again in this post.

It is episode 155 from season 10, see here. Thanks to Some Guy for the link to the clip.

Oh, and here´s my favourite bit of dialogue (SPOILERS):

Shpeck:
"You have been frozen in ice for over 500 years. (...) Please be careful. You are frail."

Cartman:
"Is the Wii out? Where´s the Wii?"

Shpeck:
(turns to screen) "Ah, Nintendo Wii. A primitive gaming device used in his time."

Cartman:
"PRIMITIVE? It has motion controlled controllers, asswipe!"
