RIP E3 | Spot On

E3 is officially dead, but is that for better or for worse? What did it represent and offer, and what are we losing?

As of December 12, 2023, the Electronic Entertainment Expo, aka electronic triples, aka E3 is dead. As reported by GameSpot dot com, "The long-running Electronic Entertainment Expo has faced numerous challenges over the last several years, and after a failed attempt to revive it once again this year, its parent company has confirmed that it is ending the gaming showcase."

"After more than two decades of hosting an event that has served as a central showcase for the U.S. and global video game industry, the Entertainment Software Association has decided to bring E3 to a close," ESA president and CEO Stanley Pierre-Louis said to The Washington Post. "We know the entire industry, players and creators alike have a lot of passion for E3. We share that passion. We know it’s difficult to say goodbye to such a beloved event, but it’s the right thing to do given the new opportunities our industry has to reach fans and partners."
