4th year for me, and it's a blast every time. I guess I'm not that disappointed w/ the decreasing number of freebies, because I don't usually wait in line for that stuff.

I am curious about something. Do some of you ever take your girlfriends to this thing?

Does anyone have an idea how much registration is after the free pre-registartion period ends? Free seems to be emphasized with pre so I imagine that there is a small (hopefully) fee.

Also has anyone experienced difficulty with the E3 staff as far as responding to e-mails? My situation is a unique one so I sent an e-mail asking for assistance in registering a few weeks ago and have yet to hear back from anyone.

Thanks!

It's $325 now to register for just the exhibit floor.
