I’m more surprised by the fact that this was its ‘first time’ ever, but users on Xbox Live will be soon able to watch Microsoft’s E3 briefing LIVE when the big gaming event happens in June. The briefing will also be broadcast on television on US channel SPIKE.
The news was broken by Major Nelson, or Larry Hryb.
And yes, Microsoft has gone on and said that this will be WORLDWIDE – and that does include Europe, Australia, and Asia. It has been confirmed by this little tweet by SPIKE’s Geoff Keighley:

The event will be streamed starting at 9:30am Los Angeles time on June 4, or 2:30am Melbourne time on June 5. Darn those time zones.
