    For those complaining about them not speaking English at a game convention, you don't seem to know what E3 is. E3 is a trade show only open to industry professionals and the media, not the general public.

    There is an expensive ticket you can buy that lets you get without being in the industry. If you want the free tickets though you have show that you work for a game or related company.

    quoted from E3's website " E3 - Electronic Entertainment Expo. The annual video game conference and show at the Los Angeles Convention Centre. " Game conference = Game con, con can stand for conference (made by the professionals to inform professionals and fans) and convention (made by fans for fans or made to show fan appreciation) both tend to have the same meaning in this type of shows. it isn't a 'trade show' it is a conference to tell people what they are doing how they are doing it and they tell there biggest input the players :3 a trade show, tends to be more of This is what we HAVE and what we WANT :3

    Not sure where you saw that. From the E3 site: https://www.e3expo.com/show-info/2541/about-e3/
    About E3
    E3 is the world's premier trade show for computer, video and mobile games and related products.

    As far as those saying it is available to the public: https://www.e3expo.com/attendee/2549/attendee-faq/
    Is the show open to the public?
    No, E3 is not open to the general public. E3 is a trade event and only professionals from the interactive entertainment industry will be allowed to attend.

    Actually this is the first year the general public will be allowed into E3. But I'm pretty sure I read it will be limited to 4000 tickets for the general public.

    Not that that really makes a difference with this. I'd rather read through the notes myself in half the time than listen to someone read them to me. And have to sit through the Japanese and the English translation. That would take forever.
