No the Game Biz isn't slowing down. The reduced number was planned.

Probably a good idea. I hate walking around at places where people are shoulder to shoulder.

A 5 hour wait to get into the Nintendo booth would say those numbers aren't low enough yet.

Back when I was going you could walk up to just about any game and immediately play.  I guess those days are more or less over.

They should restrict it to print / television journalists for the majority of the time maybe have 1 day for bloggers, 1 day for general public, and lengthen it a couple of days to a week.

And while I'm making up rules, no one affiliated with G4 TV should be allowed near the site ever.
