Big Download reports that we may have seen the last of the underwhelming E For All Expo.
In fact, Mary Dolaher, CEO of the company which operates E For All, offered what sounds very much like a eulogy for the consumer event:
We want to thank all of our E for All partners for their support, and we encourage E for All exhibitors to participate in the E3 new event, which we believe will meet their needs as well as those of the industry at large. IDG World Expo is very pleased to be partnering with the ESA on E3 and continuing to play a central role in that important industry event. We look forward to furthering our contribution to the success of the video game community.
GP: No surprise here, given that PAX 2008 had four times the attendance (and 40 times the buzz) of E For All. Game publisher support was missing in action as well.

UPDATE: E For All is officially dead. Joystiq's Alexander Sliwinski scored this definitive quote from Mary Dolaher yesteday:
Unfortunately, E for All will not be occurring in 2009, as our focus now turns to E3.
