Lots of new and upcoming games on display, and we went hands-on with quite a few — some of which are not even announced yet. Most of it is under embargo until a later date, but keep an eye out. We'll have coverage up soon enough.
Today is Veterans/Remembrance Day, so we're not quite sure how much activity there will be news-wise, but we'll be around to give you the latest coverage.
