The new PlayPad controllers for Android were particularly impressive. The PlayPad Pro 2 is great for Android users that are heavy gamers. It has a rubberized grip for a solid feel … Continue reading “E3 2013: Nyko Booth Tour”
As expected, E3 2013 was a super-exciting show (new consoles always add extra excitement), but it was even more exciting than I thought it would be.

As Polygon reported yesterday, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata said that the company will not have a traditional press conference at the E3 2013 trade show. Instead, the company will focus on smaller events. Whether this is a sound strategy or not remains to be seen. What’s certain is that is creates a perception problem for Nintendo. … Continue reading “No Nintendo Press Conference at E3 2013”

Now that we’ve all had some time to rest, recover, and reflect, let’s talk about what impressed you at E3 2012! I’m going to use today’s column to discuss a few of my favorite things from E3 2012, which makes this edition the nerd equivalent or raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens.

One of my E3 2012 surprises was NBA Baller Beats. This unique music-rhythm game for Xbox 360 Kinect is controlled with a basketball.
