E3 is coming :

Well, it’s that time of the year folks, the time that all of us nerds and tech enthusiasts wait for. The time when developers and studios make us go ” wow ” with amazing announcements. The Electronic Entertainment Expo, popularly know as E3 is fast approaching and like every year is set to shower us with wondrous news from all the tech and gaming world. New games, consoles, tech, there is always something for everyone and it never fails to get us hyped for what’s to come.

That said, it is kind of handful when it comes to keeping track of all the press conferences being at E3. Considering the fact that multiple major and minor names take the stage to present us with what they have been working on, it is quite natural to keep track of exactly what is happening and when. But, Twitter’s Cheesemeister has saved us from all the trouble. His time-table for this year’s E3 is immaculate, right down to the worldwide time-zones. Kudos to him for helping us all out.

Here is the list
