E3-mail

The Personal Information that we collect is used to process your registration or may be used by E3 for marketing and promotional purposes to keep you informed with the latest news about the event.



The people at E3Expo.com weren't kidding when they put this notice in their privacy policy. Since my registration for my first ever E3 was confimed on March 18, I've received at least 53 e-mails from companies asking me to see their wares at the show. This doesn't include at least 27 more forwarded by my editors and co-writers at GameCritics.com (many of which duplicated messages I had already received).



There's no larger point to this post... just thought I'd share those quick stats as I prepare to jet off to sunny L.A. (just in time to miss the big three press conferences, unfortunately). If you want to look for me there, I look like this only in color. I'm sure the show itself will give me plenty of fodder for the blog (I've had a few story suggestions already), so be on the lookout for my thoughts, impressions and opinions (and other synonyms) when I get back. Ciao!
