E3 Central
Our complete E3 coverage, 1999–2006
📱 Live Coverage
In 2005 and 2006, GamesFirst! sent a camera phone to E3 and posted live from the floor — one of the earliest examples of real-time show coverage from an independent games outlet.
📷 Photo Galleries
GamesFirst! staff took cameras to E3 every year. Here are the surviving photo archives from the show floor.
E3 1999
Only two photos survive from GamesFirst!'s first E3 in 1999: Rick and Al in front of the LA Convention Center, and Sarah and Shawn running from a Battlemech inside the show. Also check out Shawn's E3 1999 Extravaganza article for the written account.
