[International Games Day @ your library] Gaming world update for June: E3 and Origins

Hi!

We just wanted to let you know that International Games Day @ your library has
posted a new item, 'Gaming world update for June: E3 and Origins'

Welcome everyone! Our third-week-of-the-month series will be a quick overview of
games news, from my own unique perspective. Please note that I am writing from
Australia, and from a part-designer-part-educator-part-gamer perspective, and so
my take on the games market is likely to be idiosyncratic… which is a polite
way of saying that I might miss something, and that these views are those of
this particular volunteer and are not any kind of official ALA position. Feel
free to add news I've missed in the comments or to contact us!



Perhaps the biggest news in the gaming world this month has been the release at
E3 of information about the PlayStation 4 and XBox One, the two upcoming
incarnations of Sony and Microsoft's game consoles. This month's update will
focus on the news from E3 from a library perspective.

Before we get there, though, it's worth noting that the Origins Game Fair, one
of the biggest tabletop gaming conventions in the world, took place this weekend
just past. I'll post the nominees in each category (with winners highlighted in
red) before we move onto the discussion of consoles.

You received this email because you asked to be notified when new updates are
posted.

Game on,
