Not surprising. Anyone would die from that much running.

Do we mark this as a Covid death?

It was already in bad health. That’s not a good combination with COVID.

Sad but not unexpected. It was a special time when E3 rolled around 10 years ago and I’ll remember it mostly fondly

“After more than two decades of serving as a central showcase for the video game industry, ESA has decided to end E3,” the statement reads.

Not just an opinion piece, for anyone wondering.
