Good news for you lucky bastards that are going. It also means that the games is likely to make its October release date.

from cube.ign.com:

0 Playable at E3
Resident Evil 0, that is.

April 25, 2002 - Insiders have confirmed that Capcom Entertainment's Resident Evil 0 will be fully playable at the forthcoming Electronics Entertainment Expo, which kicks off this May in Los Angeles, California. The title is said to be very advanced in its development cycle.
Resident Evil 0, called Biohazard 0 in Japan, follows the exploits of Resident Evil side-character Rebecca Chambers and newcomer Billy Cohen as they travel through a zombie-infested train and into the dark surroundings of the locomotive. The third-person adventure uses Resident Evil remake-style high caliber pre-rendered backdrops and adds in a zapping system, which enables players to switch characters at will and drop items on the spot.

It is not yet known how many kiosks Capcom plans to make available to play Resident Evil 0 at E3, but the company has confirmed previously that the adventure is its "big game of the show," so with that in mind we expect it'll have a significant presence.

More as we head toward the anticipated event.

I think so. I'm sure Mario will be as it's coming out in Japan in June so it should be pretty much done. Miyamoto has made comments like "people shouldn't judge Zelda until they play it at E3," so it sounds like Zelda will be playable. Metroid looks to be pretty far along from the latest screens and the detailed impressions posted by ign a while back, so it will probably be playable too.
