The Gamerzitch Weekly Wrap-Up for 6/3/11: Pre-E3 Edition


It's that time of year again and it's only just a few days away! What's that you ask? Well it's only the "Superbowl of Videogames" known as E3. This year, in my opinion, could be the biggest one yet. I can't imagine what big surprises "The Big 3" will have. I mean, thins have been sort of hush-hush between all of them, but who knows!
What's really awesome is that many developers and publishers have released a lot of details about games that are at the expo; the fact of the matter is that E3 didn't even start so it's already going to be awesome! With some regular news and some that is pre-E3 news, expect some of us to do some catch-up on here so that we can prepare you and ourselves for this year's expo. So, please, keep checking back on us. We'll also be looking to keep you updated with up to the minute news with a few ideas that we're still working on, so also keep checking on us with that.
