GAMECOCK MEDIA GROUP SPILLS THE BEANS ON Expo for Interactive Entertainment, Independent and Original (E.I.E.I.O.)
First Look at Gamecock's Original Games Highlight Three Day Fun Fest
Cockpit, Austin, Texas - Gamecock Media Group continues its mission to champion original titles today with the announcement of the final details of its much anticipated E.I.E.I.O event. The "Expo for Interactive Entertainment, Independent and Original" is being held at Santa Monica's Hotel California (1670 Ocean Ave), right smack in the middle of all the E3 hotels.
E.I.E.I.O. Details
- Location: Hotel California
- Address: 1670 Ocean Ave, Santa Monica, CA
- Times: 7/11 12pm-6pm; 7/12 10am-6pm; 7/13 12pm-4pm
Playable games, accessible developers, Gamecock suckers, and food and drink will all be part of the festival.
"EIEIO is going to be a celebration of the amazing lineup of independent developers that Gamecock has been lucky enough to sign on, and I'm thrilled to say that every one of them will be in attendance to give personal demos of their works in progress," said Mike Wilson, Grand Champeen and CEO of Gamecock. "And, of course, there will be a truckload of that very special Texas hospitality that our friends have come to expect. While this year's E3 'business summit' might seem a bit strange and uptight, those who still harbor a true love for original games and the talented folks that create them should know that there's plenty of room at the Hotel California. Such a lovely place..."
Gamecock's artist-driven line-up crosses every platform and hits multiple genres. The showcase includes several previously announced games along with several new ones. Developers will be on hand to demo their creations and answer any questions.
