The beforementioned Industry Hours:

So a three hour head start. This I can work with.

Now I can only hope that I can actually get in through the media this year if at all possible...

So the only thing to do at the expo: is play demos and buy merch? I was reading some posts on reddit that some people got into EA's conference and bethesdas.

Lol, 1,000 early bird tickets sold out super fast. I was hitting refresh until the moment the site opened up sales and there were already 700+ people in line ahead of me.

Thankfully I was able to snag one before they sold out.

Would be cool to do a meet up this year. Went with 6 of my friends last year but didn't get to meet with Gaffers.

Hope to meet some of y'all this year

I had to click on business pass to actually get the early bird check box to show up. The main page was stuck at "coming soon" for like the first two minutes

If you buy a Gamer Pass ticket, do you get to actually go to the conferences? Or is it just the demo booths?

Hey y'all- if you're considering going to E3 for the first time this year, I did a video documentary of my first trip to E3 in 2017. I won't link it, my channel is the same name as my Era name.

TLDR: if you get the pleb-pass, go in with low expectations

Business pass has been expanded to allow you access to the show floor hours before it opens up for the Gamer Pass holders for two of the three days. That would have been super useful for me last year.

It is an amazing experience either way though :D

Man this is super surreal. I've always wanted to go since I was a kid and I didn't even consider it until one of my friends brought it up to me yesterday.

Neither in a way. PC Gamer had open access to its conference last year with limited tickets. But otherwise you have to request access to the other ones and better have a damn good reason for it lol.

For the show floor, you get access to it. Get ready to wait in line. LOOOOONGGGGG lines

Has anybody gotten in with a media pass by being a smaller podcast?
I'm pretty sure I would have qualified as a YouTube content creator last year but stupidly didn't request it. I can't even remember the benefits, and I'm pretty sure here's a list of requirements. If anything, you should submit for it. Worst they'll say is no

You need an invite from the company hosting the conference to attend unless it's the PC Gamer show.

Lines are crazy long so maybe they'll actually set the floor up with that in mind. Wandering through the big 3 booths was a clusterfuck.

Got an early bird pass this year. I wasn't able to last year and had to pay the extra amount.

I completely forgot this was going on today and I even got my alarm set early. Can't believe I missed out on the Early Bird again.

Got a pass regardless because I like to check this out again.

I went last year and was sure I was going to go again this year, but I'm planning a pretty big move this summer now and just can't justify the trip. Hopefully I'll be back again next year.
