Its like saying the Motor show is on, but only the Trade and Journo's are allowed in. I just can't understand the idea behind it surely the people that buy the titles are more important than the trade. I mean think of all the products that Ninty, Sony and Xbox have on display and the amount of merchandise they could sell or promote if they opened the doors to the general public. If they wanted trade only they could have that for the first two days and then let the general public in for say 5 days after.

Britney spears isn't fat or sweaty. She's American, but hey, no-one's perfect. Besides, she wouldn't be hanging around near you unless you paid her an awful lot.

We all know what they are going to be looking at months in advance so why not let us have a chance to experience the games before they are released it certainly managed to entice me to consider games I might not have if I just read a review in a magazine. The games are out months before these sort of events anyway in other parts of the world.
Loosen up a bit.
