I posted a topic similar to this one, but in the wrong section. So here is my second attempt at it.

Penny Arcade is an online comic that was built by gamers for gamers. They use real world events and have there own ideas as well. The creators of Penny Arcade are based in Seattle. Penny Arcade even has there own convention called PAX (Penny Arcade Expo).

Writers in gaming magazines call PAX the new E-3. Since E-3 has started to limit the number of attendees to press only, people have turned to this new convention for gamers. Last year over 20,000 people came to the convention. This year they hope to get over 50,000 in there new location in downtown Seattle. Last year they also had demos, trailers, live screenings, and even conferences on many new games. Last year they had Splinter Cell: Double Agent, Assassins Creed, and many more titles previewed.

The Question I want to now is, Will Bungie release anything on Halo 3 or is Bungie trying to ignore this opportunity to have advertisement at the new E-3?

And for a side note, I have been to PAX and am going again this year.

Well, on the PAX home page they have Microsoft as one of the sponsers/supporters, so does that mean Bungie is represented by Microsoft?

Bungie headquarters is located in Redmond, Whashington right? Well, that is pretty close compared to E-3 in Las Vegas or where ever it is at now-a-days. I, myself, live in Seattle and would be deeply outraged if Bungie didn't have a guy(s) to talk, answer certain questions, and show mini clips.
