E3, iicon and ESA

E3 isn't being resurrected with iicon, but can the ESA pull its new thing off?
If it can, maybe iicon will avoid the pitfalls E3 did. I, for one, am optimistic. There's nothing like another big competitor entering the ring, and if nothing else, the ESA has a lot to prove with its return to the events sector. It's a big gamble sure, but if there's anywhere such a gamble can pay off, maybe it's Vegas.
