That's the one... and as for the big names....

Last year Sega had their own open show at some big place outside Olympia... I can guarantee Sony and Ninty will do the same

Sonic, i think the London show you're refering to is ECTS, European Computer Trade Show or something.

There's not much point going this year, Sony and Nintendo have both pulled out.

What are u on about??? E3 is closed to EVERYONE under 18 now! The reason is that they used to just get millions of kids in there! Also, it's an EXPO... not a game show like the Tokyo Games Show. That means it's for people in the industry only now- not the general public (so er-no wins on one count!).

Teh best way for non-ernos to get into something like this is 2 fold:
1) Go to the London game show (I forget what it is called, but it's at the olympia stadium). The number of 15 year old games roducers and CEOs is meant to be amazing!

2) If you are over 18, then register for E3. Say you are at "Sonicrav games" etc. Or get a press pass for "Sonicrav Media".
