For those of you who have gone to previous E3s, do you have any tips for an E3 newbie?

Bring a camera too. Capturing all the hilarity (and other stuff) is a must. Or the games if that's more your thing
Other suggestions I hear normally are to get as much E3 swag as possible!

So that means there's only other nerds to harass and stalk? Screw that, everyone to the bar!

I got a digital camera, and my passport should be arriving soon. Don't know if one is necessary (I live in Canada) but at least I will have one now.
Decided to rent a car to store loot in. Should be fun with or without the freebies, though, I'm sure.

1.) Roundtables: what are the qualifications for watching any roundtables that go on? Media badge?
2.) Media badge: I'm told that members of the press often dont have to wait in line for exhibits and demo stations and that most exhibitors will give a member of the press preferential treatment over attendees if you flash your media badge. Question is, who do you show it to?
3.) Good time to show up at convention center: How long should I arrive at the convention center to avoid ungodly lines to get into the show?
4.) Good time to show up at kodak theatre: I am attending Nintendo's press conference (invite secured
) and I'd like to know what a good time to show up at the theatre would be to get a decent seat. Does the theatre have a wireless internet connection of any sort for press updates? The theatre opens its doors at 8:30 according to the invitation.5.) How much "swag" should I expect to either pick up or be handed to me? Is it enough to where i should contemplate bringing a decent sized bag?
I think thats about it for now. As I said, this will be my first show both in terms of being there and in terms of being registered media. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help a guy out

I wish I was going! I might try to get in next year, but it won't be as exciting. On the other hand, it will probably be the beginning of the really great games for the Rev...hmmm...

I'm able to go to E3 and check out everything on the show floor, but I don't have an invite to the big press conferences.
I do have media-only access (the first two hours on the first day are for media only), so obviously I'm making a beeline for the Nintendo booth. I don't really know if I'm able to flash my media badge to anybody and butt in line during the rest of E3, though...I'd be happy if I'm wrong, though.

Then after they fall for it call them:
Bitches.
Yeah....Bitches.
