It's Day 3 of the Electronic Entertainment Expo and Team Kotaku E306 is live in Los Angeles, delicately yanking the chapped, abused udders of the industry dairy cow for the last trickles of creamy, quickly-cooling gaming news.

Joel's Press Hotel Press Room Mini-Blog

Hey, everybody! What a week—and we've still got an entire day left to futz around with all the games on the show floor, not to mention conducting more interviews.

While the rest of Team Kotaku is at the convention center, I'll be heading downstairs to talk to the folks behind the front desk about their hot new title, 'The Hotel Bill.' Once that's squared away, though, I'll be heading out to the convention center myself, hopefully to spend some hands-on time with some of the games I have been too busy to play on the days before.

As before, if you'd like to see a list of all the gaming news our Team has been slamming out this week, hop on past the jump for an index. And as before, join us in out Campfire web-based chat to duke it out with other gamers online using words.

Thirty dollars of parking later... You can stop worrying: I made it back to the convention center. Of course, while I was braving Las Angeles traffic, our roughneck Kotaku team was putting up lots more stories and video, including what might be the most telling clip of the show.
