Feature | Eurogamer's Best of E3 2010
Game of the Show, Best Tech, Best Publisher, more.
It began, as ever, with a leak. With just hours to go until Microsoft's absurdly lavish and conceptually loopy launch event for Project Natal, suddenly the name Kinect was out there, and images of a new, black Xbox 360 unit were proliferating across the net. So close and yet so far: these days, even on a sleepy LA Sunday, you just can't stop E3 jumping the starter's gun.

Review | King Arthur: The Role-Playing Wargame
Round table discussion.
It's the 5th Century. Or maybe it's the 6th. Nobody can really be sure, and it doesn't matter - the legendary tales of King Arthur might as well have taken place in another universe.
