E3&nbsp;2012 Drinking GameGet ready, gamers! It&rsquo;s that magical time of the year when dreams can be made and hopes can be destroyed. E3 is upon us and the world is watching in excitement to see what the future holds for video games. While a lucky bunch will actually be able to attend the expo, most of us will be sitting at home, taking in the action from behind a screen. What better way to celebrate announcements (or grieve) than with a few buddies and drinks? The Drunken Moogle has created a drinking game for those of you looking to pregame a bit before those big E3 parties. Grab some buddies and drinks and get ready for a fun week! For the press conference times and links to livestreams, check out the schedule that Video Game Nostalgia posted.
