The problem was that E3 was seen by the public as something to desire access to, as being exclusive and so on. This drove the organising body to open it up to more general access. In doing so, the audience changed, so the content on display changed, and it became a shitty version of PAX.
And that’s what killed it, in turn.
The Looker is fantastic. I was particularly disappointed to learn that Blow took it as an insult, though.
