Movie, video game, TV and comic book conventions and conferences are bigger business than ever before thanks to the beauty of online video streaming, such that they become major calendar events even for those who don't attend in person.

The year's biggest cons include: E3 (June 12-14), San Diego Comic-Con (July 19-22), Gamescom (Aug 21-25), the Tokyo Game Show (Sep 20-23), Paris Games Week (Oct or Nov), PlayStation Experience (TBA December), and numerous currently unannounced Nintendo Direct livestreams.

If you want to see the biggest new games and movies unveiled as they happen, make sure to tune in for the press conferences and keynotes attached to these shows.
