    I will watch all the Giant Bomb after-hours shows, but for watching the conferences and other daytime stuff, where are you going to watch E3?

    The last several years, I've watched the Game Trailers live feed of E3. Some of the personalties bother me, but they have good production, and they get some good guests. Jack Tretton being on this year sounds really interesting to me.

    In the past, I watched GameSpot, and I still tend to jump over there to see what is going on.

    This year, however, Twitch has a great line-up, so I'm a little conflicted on where I should spend most of my time.

    I just wondered what everyone else was doing. :)

    No I'll be at work. I'll look at Kotaku or something on my lunch break and go "Oh that was announced that's cool I guess" then eat the rest of my sandwich.

    Because of it being in a wildly different time zone I'll just read it on the internet. If giantbonb put up videos of them talking over the press conferences i will probably watch them as i have done with the xbox one and ps4 reveal

    For the conferences, as well as the years before, I'll be watching it at GameTrailers. I never had a problem with GameTrailers. For a smoother experience with less lag, Gametrailers was the place I go. I was there while the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 was revealed as well as the conferences.

    Sounds like the GB crew is going to try to do some live commentary over the press conferences this year? I tried to ask Jeff on his Tumblr how this would work, but he gave me a snarky non-answer instead. If that ends up being done in a good way, I'll probably watch it that way. Or I'll sleep until 3 in the afternoon and watch them all later. Depends on how much I feel like staying up that day.

    I'll be at work during the xbox one but I'll be home for the playstation one. Anyone know the best way to follow it live on my phone on like a liveblog or something like that? Or should i just check gaf or the forums every 15 minutes.

    Didn't get invited to any of the press events but that's what happens when you are not press, its fine gives me more energy to run around the expo floor getting them deals DONE or picking up terrible xl shirts to sleep in.

    Probably by watching/reading about it the morning after it all happens due to the time zone differences.

    E3 has always been something that I reserved time for, but since I'm traveling I don't know if I'll even have an internet connection available during the show. Likely I'll just watch the press conferences a few days after when I do find some decent internet and catch up on Giant Bomb content whenever I get back home.

    Giant Bomb is doing live commentary over the press conferences, so I will probably pull that up and have it running in the background whilst I'm in the office.

    Asleep for the Microsoft and Nintendo conferences since it will be very early morning for me but I might be able to watch the EA conference and as for Sony I'll have to check my phone on my work break for the updates.

    @wemibelec90: They're doing live commentary for all the main conferences in the same way day did on the PS4 stuff etc. So if you enjoyed that, you'll enjoy this.

    I'm watching the E3 stuff GB does, especially the late night streams (in recorded form since I'm in Europe). I'll watch the conferences with GB commentary, and probably won't be following too much else live.

    I'll have a couple of friends round and open 2 or 3 of the live streams, because no doubt at least one will lag out when the service gets hammered.

    I'll watch all the press conferences on Gametrailers and then rewatch them with GB commentary.

    Have they confirmed they are doing the nightly shows too? They are always interesting.

    Sorry to disappoint but Aisha Tyler has said she's doing the Ubisoft conference again. Unless you just want him to be doing a one man show where he talks about all his past mistakes.

    I believe the folks from Two Best Friends will be doing some sort of press conference coverage, so I'll probably gravitate away from Giant Bomb's E3 coverage for the first time in awhile. Will definitely be following the forums here and elsewhere, though.

    I live in Europe, so the shows starts at 18 pm Monday, to around 4:30 am the next day. In the past I have always had lots of exams, but this time I'm finally free of any responsibilities. So I'm having a good friend over to watch the show, and more impotently keep me awake. It's not going to be the most impressive "viewing party", but I'm really looking forward to it. Probably wont take the Giantbomb commentary stream, that might get weird....

    I'll watch what I can on Spike while I'm at work, since we have a TV in the background. Unfortunately, all of the conferences and stuff are always right smack dab in the middle of my work hours, preventing me from keeping up online. And I'll eventually catch up on the live commentaries and such here at Giant Bomb.

    The how is what I'm curious about. Are they going to skip attending the actual conferences just to do voice-over for them? Seems strange, since they all seem to enjoy actually being there for the event itself.

    Is it on TV again this year? If so, that's what I'm doing. My connection's not good enough to watch the whole thing live. I'll catch the best parts online later.

    That's so Gunstar Red!

    I find watching E3 stuff incredibly boring (not to take a shot at anyone who does, just isn't my thing) but if you put a fun personality commenting over it, then I'm in, as always that will be Giantbomb for me!"

    I'll definitely be watching Giant Bomb's live commentary, they're good at being quiet at the really big shit and they're always ready with the quips when something dumb happens. I'm basing this off the live commentaries of the Xbox One/PS4 streams from last year mostly, those things are so effin funny. The Youtube video "Giant Bomb - Brad Loses It" still gets me every time, I'd say I watch it a couple of times a week, honest.

    Going on the internet after work to see what's new. To be honest I'm not really hyped for this year E3. They're probably going to show abunch of bullshit that alot people don't care about. After that show a handful of games that could be interesting, but then later on down the line the game ends up being delayed, and may not turnout what people thought it would be.

    Usually on Spike and then stream the few that aren't on TV.

    With the GB guys doing commentary I may just be sitting in the chat through all of them this year.

    I'll stick with Giant Bomb and if gets buggy, I'll head over to Gamespot. I'm hopeful that this E3 will be great and has plenty of surprises, but so far I'm not feeling much buzz.

    I guess that means I'll be watching the conferences twice. Once live without interruptions, and again for the laughs. Both the Xbox One revel and the PlayStation 4 reveal was amazing, especially the PS4 one. I still watch that from time to time.

    I'll be watching Gametrailers before and after each conference on Monday/Tuesday. When available I'll be using Giantbomb's commentary stream during the conferences. Finally when E3 actually starts on Tuesday I'll have Gamespots stream on every day till the GB night show starts.

    Not sure how it's all working but I know Microsofts press conference is on Spike TV so I'll watch it there. If EA & Ubi are on Spike also, I'll watch it there. My mum takes the tv at night so I'll open a live stream (probably Giantbombs, if they're doing what they did during the PS4 reveal) and hook it up to my tv. I know 2 of my friends will be coming over. Might tell another friend or 2 to come over but I doubt it.

    I enjoyed GB's live commentary of Sony's Conference at last year's Gamescom, so assuming it actually loads and works fine I'll tune in to that.

    Thanks for all the comments.

    I had honestly forgotten about GB doing commentary. Like someone else said, I always feel the need to watch the conferences with no commentary first. Otherwise, I feel like I get too distracted with just listening to the GB guys.

    I'm surprised no one talked about watching it on Twitch. I'm sure I'll end up at GameTrailers while I'm working (I sit at a desk all day...) and then going back to watch the GB commentary later - as well as the GB nights.

    I will prob watch twitch through my xbox one... Maybe the IGN app. GB streams don't usually work with my iPad for some reason.
