E3 09 Open To Public? Sources Say Yes.

by Chad Lakkis on July 23, 2008 at 8:12 pm

Kotaku’s managing editor, Brian Crecente, states that he had several conversations with “well connected sources” at this years E3 — all of which believe that next years event will in fact be open to the public.

However, upon reaching out for an official comment from the ESA, he was given a very cookie cutter response, stating:

“The ESA is currently in the process of receiving feedback and will make an announcement about the 2009 E3 Media & Business Summit at an appropriate time.”

While it would be cool to get live reactions from gamers, in addition to our own hands-on impressions of the games, the biggest (albeit selfish) perk that I would look forward to, as a result of a policy change, would be a bigger/more impressive E3 experience.
