The video game trailer burnout is getting real, or so my eyes (and brain) are telling me. The Future Games Show is a long showcase at the end of a long day so it could be easy to overlook some games or the presentation as a whole. But let’s not…
Read MoreConsider this your warning: there is some serious cute ahead. Like, there’s so much cuteness that you might get so overwhelmed that you say some bad words. I admit, I swear more often during Wholesome Directs than I do any other showcase – but it isn’t my fault everything is…
Read MoreFuture of Play Direct was the first showcase today, and it’s also when they all started bleeding together. Still, it featured some really great game announcements and trailers. This is one of those showcases where everyone can find something new and interesting. The smaller studios are set to make some…
Read MoreDay of the Devs is another showcase featuring many, many, many great-looking games from independent developers.

Read MoreI haven’t decided what to call Not-E3 yet. It needs a catchy name and Summer Game Fest ain’t it. Regardless of whether or not I’m prepared, though, that annual crazy week of game showcases at the beginning of June seems to be starting early this year with today’s PlayStation State…
Read MoreIf you’re a fan of nature puzzle games then you’ve likely heard of Strange Horticulture (because there really aren’t that many of them).
