Well folks, it's almost that time of the year again. I know there are a few gamers here, myself included, who think E3 is bigger than Christmas. And who doesn't love a countdown? So here we go:

There are 4 hours until E3.

Microsoft E3 2008 Press Conference Coverage at IGN

That's right; E3 runs from July 14th-17th.

There is much at stake and this site will be awash with leaks and spoliers and let downs in the coming weeks. And this is your one-stop shop for crying about how it's taking to long for it to come.

I'll be updating that countdown on a daily basis so you'll always know how long an eternity feels.

If you'd like to discuss anything e3, you're welcome to do it here.

Possible topics:

Best e3 ever?
Is E3 worth the hype?
What wins E3s?
What is the future of E3?

So sit back, grab your favorite caffeinated beverage, and wait...

Yay...
Aww, a day before my B-day...
It'll be 0...
But still very exciting!

man i am stoked to see what nin is going to give us core gamers

Hopefully Nintendo unveils a lot of good games.

I can't wait for the new games to surface at E3. Something that never was talked about until then. Damn i missed the old E3 tho.

Can anyone give out what sounds to be the more credible rumors for the PS3/360's actions @ E3?

Can't wait to see what they have in store for us....

edit: I'm rootin for EBA 2

I don't want to wait for E3 :(.. It makes summer go by faster. I liked it a lot better when it was in May.

E3 will be amazing! what games will be anounced or previewed!

The conferences start on the 14th.

So we should be getting E3 info even sooner than anyone expected...
