E3

On the 5th of June, the annual electronic games expo, E3, kicked off and since then we've seen some pretty amazing stuff. All the biggest and best companies in the world of games were there to show off their products.

Chief amongst the commotion was the spec unveiling of the new Wii U and some pretty nifty demonstrations of what it can do. While still lacking in hardware compared to what some of the other big boys are going to be doing, there are certainly some interesting innovations. Oddly, for a Nintendo product, I'm actually looking forward to getting a shot.






Both Microsoft and Sony focussed more on software, though Microsoft did show off it's new Smart Glass too (check out Ally's new post for more information on that).

But, by far the biggest news of the conference so far (certainly for me!) was all about Halo 4! The new infinity trailer blows my mind, as does the walkthrough level. Have a look at these videos for some great footage and stay tuned for some more in detail analysis of both E3 and Halo 4.
