eurogamer | day 4
Last stop was the Eurogamer Expo in London. I won’t go into a highlights list as I’m sure the diagram above does a good enough job of summing this up. I’ll admit that I’ve been a light weight this week and was on game/play overload at this point so I’m sure the expo wasn’t just [...]

Which is after years of simply owning a SNES and a Gamecube I need me a [...]
