E3 is going to be especially busy this year.

In addition to the regular conferences from Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, Ubisoft, and Electronic Arts (as well as Bethesda and Square Enix), there will be a new PC-focused press briefing, organizers announced today.


The first-ever "PC Gaming Show" will be held Tuesday, June 16 at 5 PM PDT. It's being put on by chip-maker AMD and PC Gamer magazine and will be held at the Belasco Theater in Los Angeles.

You'll be able to watch it live on Twitch.

"The time is right for a PC-focused event in the week of E3 and we're honored to be part of bringing the industry together," AMD executive Matt Skynner said in the announcement.

The PC Gaming Show will be hosted by eSports figure Sean "Day[9]" Plott. Below is a list of confirmed attendees and speakers, while more will be announced later.
Sean is actually pretty good at telling the industry to take there Kool Aid and shove it back down there wind hole. Question will be is Sean on a contract to host the event and thereby contractually bound not to poke the bear.

Sean is known for calling out fact based BS from developers, but especially from notorious distribution houses (aka: SoE, EA and WG). Should be interesting to see if its going to be a fluff and stuff PR piece to sell spin and units, or some balanced back and forth.

I mean the guy put Will Weaton in his place during a tabletop episode. The last thing you want to do with Sean is try and Rules Lawyer him.
