Ask your favorite gaming websites and youtube channel to join the cause by not attending and covering E3 this year until the ESA changes their stance on SOPA and PIPA! If they truly apposed this legislation the last thing they want to do is support an entity that spent $190,000 on PIPA lobbying.

I considered posting this but Ive been wanting to attend E3 for years

Interesting.

It would prove difficult to get the heavy hitter publishers/journalists to stray away though, since there is a lot of money/press involved. I am annoyed that the ESA has taken this stance though.

It won't be hard for me to not support e3 this year, I'm broke and live halfway across the country

Mhmm. I just watch livestreams of the big conferences, then youtube anything I may have missed.

E3 is a crock of shit anyway, if you guys have any interest in attending one of these events, go to GDC instead. E3 is like a "live" gametrailers.com presentation.... Just marketing fluff.

E3 is utter crap, it good for for your average far-away-screen-watching-peep, but seriously, it's the equivalent of watching some action movie star rant mindlessly about orgasms during exercises.

E3 died the year they stopped having the rockwall. Search your hearts. You know this to be true.
