    It’s here, our monumental series on the entire history of E3! Yeah, we’re not sure why we’d pick a huge series despite being away for years, but here goes! In this episodes we’re covering E3’s humble beginnings, booth babes, John Romero’s Daikatana and much, much more! Huge thanks to all the gaming journalists that have covered E3 over the years, and for laying such a great foundation for the industry.
