    So yeah, this's exactly as the title states, here the times for all of us in the UK to show up for the conferences:

    I'll just quote what Alex wrote in his article and add UK times at the end of each line so you don't have to look for a link, and so I can be lazy about it. (Baring in mind they might be behind their schedule for going live, so we might have to sit around for a bit too.)

    Please remember we're in BST at the moment. That's GMT+1.

    Never thought of that, it's accurate though, I nabbed the info from Gamespot.co.uk so it's accurate and besides the rest of the world dosn't really know what BST is so they'd all wonder what I was on about and try and correct me. Thanks for reminding me about BST though, it's been a while since that came into my mind. :-)

    @TorMasturba: why 5.30? Isn't it just 5?

    @TorMasturba:  It's okay, it's easy to forget that we're not GMT all year round. I wasn't reminding you as such, but fellow Brits who glance at the times and see GMT and think that's what it is now.

    I don't know Yanngc33, like I said I just got the times from Gamespot so they should be accurate. Either way I'll be there early and I'll be refreshing the page every few seconds for 10 mins before hand so do what you got to do buddy.

    Wasn't the Sony conference supposed to last 5 hours? Or was that rumor false? Microsoft is 2 hours long, so maybe they are revealing a new console? Would be pretty awesome if they are.

    @random_guy23: All Press Conferences are 5 hours, we just see the 2 hours of them in which the presentation and unveiling of new stuff takes place.

    God damnit, I have an exam tuesday morning so chances are I'll only get to watch the Microsoft one. Pretty annoying seeing as I then have 3 free days which, if they had spread them out, I would have been able to watch. 
     
    Ah well I guess I'll either just look at a bunch of "highlights" or something or maybe even torrent them if anyone puts them up.

    I've also made a thread here where you can see what time the live streams start for you, regardless of country.

    That's true, but I figured that the more this information is out there everywhere the happier everyone is, and the less everyone's time get's wasted looking for something that's easily in their grasp if they already frequent this site more often than others.

    I'm one of the latter and I have nothing against Gamespot in the slightest but my home for video game news and general info needs is served here on this site. With that being the case for many other fellow loyal UK based GB and/or WM readers/viewers I figured it would be as helpful to them as it would've been for me.
