2016 Mazda CX-3 Grand Touring AWD Review - Food Adventures and e3!

Hey everybody, It's Jason from Sasaki Time back with another vehicle review! This time it is for the 2016 Mazda CX-3 Grand Touring! I got to review this vehicle for a week and took it on some food adventures and media events including e3! Let's get started with the review!

The Mazda CX-3 is part of the subcompact-crossover that has seen several car companies come out with their own take on this segment. Smooth lines and contouring really make this vehicle stand out.

Touring around the front of the vehicle, the stylish super bright LED headlights will easily show you the way on the highway. You also get LED foglights on the Grand Touring.

Beautiful 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels with the Grand Touring. They provide firm traction and maneuverability on the streets and the freeway in Orange County.

Sasaki Time Goes to e3! From Guest Bloggers Cesar and Mayra!

Have you heard of e3? It is short for the Electronic Entertainment Expo that is held annually in Los Angeles! If you are a video game fan then this is the place that you want to be! I was able to get two tickets to attend just one day of the expo but I was not able to go so my friend Cesar and Mayra were able to cover and cover the event for me!

The huge news was of course the two brand new systems from Sony and Microsoft! This would have been the year to go to check out two new video game systems!

Here is Cesar's trip report:

Having never been to E3, I didn't know what to expect. Other conventions have you shoulder to shoulder with other attendees fighting for space. This was not the case here. I have never felt this comfortable at a trade show before. No long lines waiting to get your hands on the latest games and technology.

The expo was divided into 2 main halls. In the first hall were the 3 big names in gaming. Both Microsoft and Sony had their newest consoles out on display for all to see. Microsoft's main focus seemed to be demonstrating the kinect's new ability to accurately read your body's movement and the graphic capabilities of the xbox one. 

Sony, on the other hand, focused on their exclusive games. 

Although Nintendo did not unveil a new console, they had plenty of games for us to try. The best part were all the cool interactive photo locations they had setup. 

The second hall was dedicated to game manufacturers as well as aftermarket products. I was pleasantly surprised by the really cool indie games being developed as well. My only regret was not having enough time to experience all the amazing things the trade show has to offer. Also for a trade show, I was expecting a lot of giveaways promoting the upcoming releases. The few promotional items being handed out seemed to be restricted to select members of the media.

All in all, I had an amazing time. If you are a video game junkie like myself, E3 is a must. Thank you Jason for the opportunity of a lifetime. My Christmas list is now complete!

*Thank you Cesar and Mayra for covering this event for me! Check out more of Cesar's photos on the next installment from e# where it will be Disney specific!*

Today it was announced that Lucasfilm Ltd. and Disney Interactive are entering into a multi-year, multi-title exclusive licensing agreement with Electronic Arts Inc. (EA) for the creation of new high quality Star Wars games spanning multiple genres for console, PC, mobile, and tablets.
Industry leaders and creators of best-in-class blockbuster games, the development and publishing teams at EA will collaborate with the creative teams at Lucasfilm to provide audiences with all-new gaming experiences set in the ever-expanding Star Wars galaxy. As part of the agreement, EA studio teams DICE (Battlefield series) and Visceral (Dead Space series) will join BioWare (Mass Effect series, Star Wars: The Old Republic) in the development of newStar Wars games.
"Our number one objective was to find a developer who could consistently deliver our fans great Star Wars games for years to come," said Kathleen Kennedy, President of Lucasfilm. "When we looked at the talent of the teams that EA was committing to our games and the quality of their vision for Star Wars, the choice was clear."
While EA studios will develop for the core Star Wars gaming audience, Disney Interactive will focus on delivering new Star Warsgames for casual audiences on mobile, social, tablet, and online gaming platforms.
"This agreement demonstrates our commitment to creating quality game experiences that drive the popularity of the Star Warsfranchise for years to come," said John Pleasants, co-president of Disney Interactive. "Collaborating with one of the world's premier game developers will allow us to bring an amazing portfolio of newStar Wars titles to fans around the world."
"Every developer dreams of creating games for the Star Warsuniverse," said EA Labels President Frank Gibeau. "Three of our top studios will fulfill that dream, crafting epic adventures for Star Warsfans. The new experiences we create may borrow from films, but the games will be entirely original with all new stories and gameplay."
More information, including titles in development, will be announced in the coming months. Continue to check StarWars.com for updates on the future of Star Wars gaming.
