- Censorship at E3 - Say goodbye to booth babes -
this year's E3 is putting restrictions in place to clean up the show floor
a little. The exhibitor's handbook apparently includes the following rule:
"Material, including live models, conduct that is sexually explicit and/or
sexually provocative, including but not limited to nudity, partial nudity and
bathing suit bottoms, are prohibited on the Show floor, all common areas, and
at any access points to the Show. ESA, in its sole discretion, will determine
whether material is acceptable." In related news, the E3 show director
Mary
Dolaher issued this statement to Gamecloud: "The E3Expo dress code policy
is not new for 2006. In fact, it is the same as it has been for the past
several years, and the vast majority of other major tradeshows have the same
or similar policies. What's new in 2006 is an update of the enforcement
policies, which simply allow show management to better enforce the
long-standing dress code." So, it remans to be seen how strictly the E3 show
organizers will enforce these policies...
