This time last week I was travelling back from E3 and too airborne to put the recap post together. Therefore, this week it’s a bumper recap covering everything from the past fortnight. Not all of you have the time to be checking the blog regularly and E3 always provides a relentless stream of content, so rub your eyes over this list and you’ll more than likely find something you missed.
Now that the dust has settled, I’d be interested to hear what you thought of the blog coverage this year. We tried new things, and your feedback will be invaluable going into gamescom, which isn’t as far away as you’d think. Here’s your jumbo recap.
