So now Nvidia will give a lan-party, now what makes me think that everyone's gonna get flooded with Nvidia goodies whereas I thought E3 was independant? ^.- We'll see what it brings.

I find it hilarious that all these companies like id, Blizzard and now nVidia are holding their own shows and think people will see them as anything but blatant promotional hype machines. Also amusing is their attempt to take E3's mantle, I think Mike Krahulik once said that people shouldn't be rushing to jump into E3's coffin. E3 is failing for a reason, and it's not a good idea to try to be the next E3.

Gamers are voting with their feet and going to PAX by the tens of thousands. This is because PAX has a soul, it's run by gamers for gamers, not by the self-aggrandizing companies. nVidia is making a mistake by running its own show and not going to PAX.
