We get it: E3 is busy and hectic and you just don’t have the time to stop and read about all those announcements and things that might have happened while you were kept away by your busy, productive life. It’s O.K.
With the CFD! E3 2011 Picture Show (patent pending), however, you can condense all that laborious reading and text interpretation nonsense into a quick sweep of the eyes over a collection of relevant images, and still be totally in the know!
