E3 2004 presents nearly 1,000 new gaming products

Approximately 1,000 of the nearly 5,000 computer and video game products
displayed at the 2004 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) have never been seen
before, according to the show’s owner, the Entertainment Software Association
(ESA).

"The interactive entertainment industry and its products have made
tremendous advances since the launch of E3 ten years ago, whether it be
technologically, economically, artistically or in terms of just plain fun. The
popularity of games has increased along with those achievements," says
Douglas Lowenstein, President of the ESA.

YOU CAN TOUCH, BUT YOU CAN’T BUY... RIGHT NOW Nearly 72% of products displayed at the show will be in stores by the year-end
