You are seeing more and more, as things get on the InterWebNets more, that companies end up doing their own events to stand out, and they do get media to cover them. E3 isn't as important as it used to be. I know such for core gamers is like a holiday and sacred calendar, but there is ideas of trying to stand out separately, and do be at E3 but do stuff leading up to it and so on. Sony ends up announcing the PS4 before E3, and Microsoft is doing the same. E3 then serves as a chance to meet. Microsoft blowing off the CES is yet another thing to.
