With the final day of E3 2011 underway, the ESA has announced that E3 2012 will be held as the same venue, the Los Angeles Convention Center, from June 5th until June 7th.
According to ESA, over 200 exhibitors attended the show to present their upcoming titles to over 48,600 visitors over the course of three days. International participation in the event increased as well, with representatives from over 106 countries attending the show, versus 90 countries in 2010.
The ESA estimates the event helped bring in an expected $25 million for the city of Los Angeles.

Would have been nice :(…definitely done on purpose though.
