E3 2012 to Be Held June 5-7

We're only going to go if Microsoft promises to say the word "Kinect" 70% less times.

 
As the 2011 Electronic Entertainment Expo winds down, it’s time to start winding up for E3 2012. That might be jumping the gun just a smidgen, but the Entertainment Software Association has announced next year’s dates nevertheless. In 2012, the big show will take place from June 5-7. As usual, the Los Angeles Convention Center will play host to the event that, these past days, drew in 46,800 journalists, industry professionals, analysts, retailers and celebrities who had no business being there whatsoever.
