The ESA has released an up-to-date list of publishers attending E3 this year, and it looks like the old dog might be back on top after what many considered a lacklustre two years of deliberately downsized events.

All the obvious names will be attending, from Activision Blizzard to Konami to Ubisoft, so we can probably expect many big game announcement once E3 2009 rolls around… mind you, that won’t be until June!

Full list after the cut, fine people!
