Here’s E3 2016, one of the biggest gaming events of the year (photos)

The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2016 show is officially over. The event drew more than 70,300 video game professionals, press, and fans to the Los Angeles Convention Center and the nearby E3 Live event (a new event just for fans).

But you can relive it (or see what it was like if you didn’t attend) through our photo gallery. We captured all of the major events from Sunday through Thursday. We walked the 500,000 square feet of exhibits and snapped our pictures.
