E3

Wedbush analysts Michael Pachter and Edward Woo believe that 2010's new hardware introductions "have great potential to reinvigorate the video game market," if manufacturers can surmount major pricing hurdles.

LOS ANGELES--The 2010 Electronic Entertainment Expo wraps up today, and the Entertainment Software Association has already booked next year's event. The E3 show runner and industry trade body today announced that the annual event will return to the Los Angeles Convention Center June 7-9, 2011.

45,600 people mobbed the LACC for E3 2010.

Microsoft's E3 press conference had two purposes: to show dominance in the very narrow category of violence-driven male-targeted enthusiast action titles, and to launch Kinect, formerly known as Project Natal, in a stab at the wide market for its newly redesigned Xbox 360.

We're just a couple of hours away from the first proper volley of shots from the E3 Expo big guns - Microsoft's press briefing is set to take place in LA at 10am local time, 6pm UK time.
