In the past, E3 has been a spectacle, but the pared-down size of this year’s show meant Gus Mastrapa could take a good long look at games that caught his eye. These are the ones that shined the brightest.

There has been a lot of talk about E3 having a different vibe this year — for game journalist Harold Goldberg, the show has lost its rhythm altogether. Walk a few steps in his shoes in his latest travelog.

For a company that made it known they were NOT having a presence at E3 this year, Activision Blizzard has an interesting way of showing it. True, they do not have a booth and are not showing any games at the LA Convention Center, but Activision does have a press conference scheduled tonight not far from the show. They are keeping it pretty close to the vest about what will be talked about, but we’ll be there to fill you in.

They had me on standby! Not that it mattered, I got in anyway …
Sitting with Jones, Scott Alexander of Playboy (and Crispy Convert) and Harold. Lots of video screens, loud music and green … everything you’ve come to expect from a press briefing (except the 360 green). It’s a show and supposed to be entertainment. We’ll see if it turns out that way. These turn out mildly entertaining because of the comedic value from people trying to be funny and failing miserably.

First thing I do when I arrive at the front desk of my E3 hotel is ask, “Is there a Carl’s, Jr. close by?”

It was supposed to be a simple change-planes layover in Atlanta in my trip from Florida to Los Angeles. 50 minutes, no more. It ended up being three-plus hours on the taxiway when the airport gets shutdown because of thunderstorms that came up quicker than bad sushi.
