In my new video [OC], I recount the rise and fall of E3, and what kind of legacy it has left behind. And then I go through the one time I got to go back in 2001

It was always my dream to go to E3 back in the 2000's. I don't care if it would have been terrible. That period was so special, and I miss the days when events like this told the story of what's to come in the next year and everyone tried so hard to put out the best trailer. I think that's why I was so sad when it started to crumble, and I realized it's never going to happen for me. My only backup now is to somehow go to Tokyo Game Show.

No, it was awesome. Went to like 12 over the years. Early 2000s was peak E3.

PAX is probably the closest thing we have left in the US
