EGX has been shit for a while now. I went 3 times. First was back when modern warfare 3 was coming out and we were given one of those stream in live consoles for free, Cs go beta key and some other merch like a battlefield dog tag with your xbox gamer tag engraved. There were loads of devs games on show, got to try out a load of big AAA games.

I went a couple years later in London and it was pretty naff but alright. Then went couple years ago to Birmingham and what a load of trash it was. Queues everywhere, it was more of and indoor market stall for loads of tacky shit.

I reckon it's down to YouTube and the like, so much content to consume at home, devs don't need to bother with the time and effort of these type of things anymore.
