IT’S TIME.
E3 is coming up on us SO FAST, Y’ALL. This year looks like it may be the biggest one in a decade, with a bajillion new releases, consoles settling, and PARTIES. I don’t need to say much else except that last year was amazing, so we EXPECT this year to be better!
As usual, we’ll be updating this list as parties are announced. If you have a party you’d like us to add, either post it in the comments, EMAIL ME, tweet me or post it in the AMAZING FACEBOOK GROUP! That’s right, the first place parties usually break is in THAT GROUP, so join it!
Once again, a GINORMOUS massive thank you to Bryanna, Becky, Jacqui and Dan for making the Facebook group and the list what it is. I just organize it and make it pretty. They’re the TRUE SURVIVORS. And you can even follow our friends at the E3 Parties Twitter account, too!
And with that said, we’d figure that you’d love to get the party started ahead of time. Hence: the AMAZING party-infusing video for David Hasselhoff’s True Survivor (from Kung Fury). Enjoy the video HERE and the list below.
Party on, Wayne!
