Holy hell! This has been a long week, and we’ve only just begun. As much as I believe this conference wasn’t as eventful as prior years’ — E3 2013 is going to be insane! — there was still so much to be passionate about, even if we weren’t overwhelmed with a flood of surprises.
While much of our E3 team makes the journey back home tonight, know that there’s plenty more content on the way these next few days. For now, though, here’s a recap of what kept us busy in Los Angeles. I don’t know what a cuttlefish has to do with E3, either, but we can figure it out together.
