Ubisoft’s E3 show had a lot of Tom Clancy and combat games, but as far as we’re concerned one of the best games that it had to show off was the latest edition of the Anno franchise. For those who haven’t played the Anno games before, they’re a reliable alternative…

The biggest trailer of E3 so far is easily The Last Guardian. After so many of us had completely given up on that game ever happening, Sony made its opening act one of the most delightful surprises of all. Not that we actually know much more than we did before…

How awesome was the Sony show? It really did have a bit of everything in Shenmue III, The Last Guardian and Final Fantasy VII Remake. But at one point I made the observation on Twitter that “hey guys, it looks like Miku’s not happening on stage today.” And I was…

Obviously we’ve seen a lot of big blockbuster games through E3 so far, from Assassin’s Creed to Fallout, Halo to FIFA. But as far as I’m concerned, it’s a little indie platformer that’s winning the show (at least, as far as games from the presentations that have already been completed…
