Over the course of four days, an estimated 18,000 hardcore and casual gamers, developers, retailers, media and other members of the game community were able to test-drive the latest video games and gadgets, attend competitive gaming tournaments, participate in gaming fan and celebrity events, sit in on developer sessions, and more.

"We are thrilled with the attendance, and we are pleased that we delivered the event we aimed for, which was a celebration that truly was for the entire game community," said Mary Dolaher, CEO, IDG World Expo. "With over 18,000 attendees on the show floor, from gamers and exhibitors, to developers, retailers and families, the mood was always fun and energetic. The response to the event was overwhelmingly positive, and we want to thank everyone for their tremendous support of E for All. We can't wait to see you back at the Los Angeles Convention Center next year at E for All's 2008 show."

More than 70 leading interactive entertainment companies were on hand for the game event, as well as more than 1,100 members of the media. Other event participants included competitive gaming organization Major League Gaming, the Video Games Live concert, the "Into the Pixel" art exhibit, and the Game Developers Conference and its Game Careers Seminar series. The show also played host to a number of other events, including Target and Activision's Guitar Hero II competition, a Los Angeles pro basketball player showdown between Corey Maggette and Derek Fisher, appearances by professional gamers Johnathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel, and MTV Games and Electronic Arts' Rock Band mobile tour, among others.
