Microsoft takes the pill, joins E for All expo

by Dustin Burg { Jun 18th 2008 at 12:45PM }

The not quite E3 and a lot more like video game fanboy happy-fun-time event known as the E for All expo is in its second year this year, and we can confirm that the E for All funnery will be eighteen times cooler. Cooler because Microsoft and their library of Microsoft Game Studio games will be attending E for All 2008. ZOMG! We know! It's a surprising move by Microsoft seeing that last year they refused to be associated with the E3 wannabe expo. But maybe E for All is its own beast, maybe there is value in it and maybe Microsoft is onto something. We'll just have to wait and see how this year's expo turns out. Anyhoo, if you want to experience Microsoft sponsored Xbox 360 awesomeness, hit up E for All this October 3-5, 2008 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Registration starts soon.

Is this worth it for MS? Judging by last years activity, this isn't much of a show? Are they simply trying to make it bigger by attending? I wonder how much that cost E for All.

Nintendo was there last year and it turned out to be alright.

Beside MS with be the main attraction this year. Maybe we have a chance to play some upcoming 360 games (GoW2!)

I just don't think there's room for two gamer-focused west coast conventions, and given the choice between PAX and EforAll, I'll take PAX every time. "By gamers for gamers" beats "Corporate media conglomerate trying to make a buck." The Penny arcade guys do just one conference (not 750), and they obviously care about the subject.
