Serious as in 17 freakin' hours of coverage spread across the web and the channel itself.
And just to whet your gaming news appetite, the network has just released a short rundown of just some of the stuff that you can expect to see from the biggest videogame event of the year.
Some of the top gaming news and interviews debuting throughout the network’s live special include: · Exclusive broadcast rights to air the biggest video game press events at E3 including “Xbox: Entertainment Evolved,” “The Download: EA 2012 Preview,” and “Nintendo All Access Presentation @ E3.”It's really cool to see the public getting this much coverage of E3. In the end, much like film and comic books, it's an industry for and of the fans. It's such a huge plus to see the veil lifted so everybody can see what's new and shiny. Hopefully more networks will start paying attention to what's fast becoming the nation's (if not the world's) entertainment medium of choice.
