How to Enjoy Your E3

E3 again, the time of year where you see the future games that are going to walk away with critical acclaim or the games that are going to leave you in sheer disappointment. This is going to be a great E3 and here is a progress to have the most enjoyable E3.

1. Make a list of games you are anticipated and put it in a schedule to watch from the developer. An example is that if you want to watch something Guitar Hero 5 related, then schedule your time for the Activision conference and watch. Also don't get too side tracked and go to preview or articles on a game you don't care about, because if you don't pay attention, you might lose track of time and waste many hours.

2. Make your snacks earlier and don't oversnack! Many people, including myself, get hungry after a period of time and need a refreshing snack. Always make the snack earlier, so you don't miss anything you want to catch. I myself am a perfectionist when it comes to cooking and sometimes take a while to cook. However also be aware of what you are preparing. Don't pack a lot of junk food, such as chips. And if you are making a sandwich make sure it is in a good form of bread, such as whole grain. Why you may ask me? Well, it is simply because if you eat unhealthy foods you will get hungrier faster and it will cause you to miss events, while you are re-snacking. Also you might gain a few extra pounds in the process.

3. Don't watch an event in like 3 in the morning! There are many people who have to watch a certain event and it is at a ridiculous time at night in certain areas. Don't do that! Your body cannot handle the lack of sleep needed for your body. Also it will affect the your next day. Just tell yourself, is missing hours of sleep more important than watching the video of a game that will come out in a few months? No! So don't do that to yourself, because it's not worth it.

4. Don't miss a special event for this. If you have work or have to go on a date with your boyfriend or girlfriend, then skip the show! As I said, catching a few minutes of a video game is not that important. Worry about your outside life more! If you have to do something, then do it! E3 or any other event is not that important to miss. If you miss something live, you can catch it anytime. Miss the live footage of a special game? Then watch it some other time! See, it isn't that hard! :P

5. Take moderate breaks. Don't sit at your computer for a very long time. It is bad and unhealthy for you. Take a break, have a small walk or bike ride. It will mellow you out a bit. Always have a scheduled break and everything will be okay!

6. Visit the forums and participate with the community! Gamespot is a great website and they have taken their time year after year to give you good coverage of E3 and the least you can do is to just post a little online and give them you input. Just don't cause any arguments. :P

Have a good time at E3!
