This tactical episode of GameSpotting sees our crack team of video game journalists sneaking behind enemy lines to recover valuable information about a top secret project known only as "E3." You can tell by the chatter among the troops that our editors are starting to get worked up about the biggest video game convention on God's green earth. So stay frosty soldier, and if you have your own status report to file, our forums or a GuestSpotting column are as good a place as any to do it.

Three E's Is the Sound of Someone Screaming
Greg Kasavin/Executive Editor
"This is big business now. It's ruthless and cutthroat. It doesn't sleep, it doesn't eat, and it has no mercy."

GameSpot & E3: A Winning Combination
Jeff Gerstmann/Senior Editor
"I am--officially--totally excited about E3."

Feedback
Andrew Park/Senior Editor
"So who can provide the kind of detailed feedback that developers can use to make their games more attractive, more engaging, and ultimately more successful?"

Perception Problems
Bob Colayco/Features Editor
"Despite the fact that games have made inroads into popular culture, there still exists a disconnect with most people in recognizing games as a valid form of entertainment."

Joining the Ranks of the Handheld Club
Jason Ocampo/Associate Editor
"It's sometimes tough being a PC guy at GameSpot. Like back when Brad was reviewing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles and everyone brought in their Game Boy Advances to help him test multiplay. That is, everyone but me."

What Did I Do This Weekend?
Justin Calvert/Associate Editor
"Went to the cantina, walked the sludge panther, rode my swoop, shopped for a new weapon. You know, the usual stuff."

Time Flies When E3 Comes
Dave Toole/Senior Producer, GameSpot Live
"It's hard to believe that it's already been almost a year since last E3. I guess the old saying is true: 'Time flies, and the older you get, the faster it goes.'"

The Low, Low Bar of Being As Good As Television
Jeff Urciuoli/GuestSpotter
"As a complete novice who knows next to nothing about how games are produced, it seems to me that most of the writing in games is being done by programmers."
