Pictures from E³ 2001

Sega was behind closed doors for E³ 2001, but Nintendo and others made up for it. This year a bevy of friends came with me. Click on the thumbnails below to see a larger image.

A large (1.1 MB) panoromic of part of one of the show floors.

Glenn Mondro enjoying the Diablo II Expansion Set.

Glenn's skills attract on-lookers.

Activision actually built a halfpipe on the show floor, and you could watch tricks by sports greats such as Tony Hawk!

Nick McGee resting right before the show.

Harry Potter is a LEGO in LEGO Creator: Harry Potter.

Electronic Arts had a large facade built to promote Harry Potter.

Against his better judgment, Glenn puts on a Ghaleon puppet, courtesy of Working Designs...

A quick jab to the face catches Glenn by surprise!

Ghaleon has already taken control of one of Glenn's hands, and Glenn is unable to defend himself from a vicious uppercut. Is that red-eye or Glenn's blood?

Jerri and Colby from Survivor: Australian Outback were on hand.

I've never met the guy in the middle, but he knows how to seize an opportunity.

Kenneth Kuo (left) and Gabe Lomelli had a good time, I think.

An animatronic Mario helped give away *a lot* of Game Boy Advances.

Mario replaced by Wario--oh no! Well, as long as they kept giving out GBAs, I don't think many were disappointed.

A huge banner for Munch from Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee.

A very nice car.

Front view of the car. In the background is the entrance to one of the main halls.

Nintendo had cute girls *with* Game Boy Advances. Wow.

Sid Meier answered questions about Civilization III.

Working Designs is so nice. They had a free UFO catcher which had all kinds of cool Working Designs shirts, promos, and games!

Xbox games that were supposed to have been released around launch time. There might be a couple of stragglers.
