In reference to the GameStop employees that are planning on going...
I expect to say this on the phone a thousand times over the next two months.
E3 has instituted a "Priority Buyer" program this year.
If you work at any of the major retailers (EG: gamestop, game crazy, EB, Best Buy),
then you will not be allowed to register for free admission.
Instead, the corporate offices of these companies will be sent a pre-determined
number of pre-qualified passes. These passes are the only people from these
companies that will be allowed to attend for free.
Anyone else from these companies will be welcome to pay 500 bucks to get in.
This means attendance is going to be way down, but the experience will be far better.
***if you don't work at one of these places.***
