We’re officially in the afterglow of Summer Games Week, the successor to E3, and now is the perfect time to catch your breath. While this time of the year is always loaded with livestreams full of reveal trailers and updates to upcoming games, this year felt especially busy. Whether you were tuning in for Sony’s State of Play, looking to see what Geoff Keighley had up his sleeve for Summer Game Fest, or sitting down to enjoy the Wholesome Direct, you were spoiled for choice.
Once again, the GameSpot team used every spare minute to chase down stories, interview developers, and shed some light on how Summer Games Week shaped up with original features. The crew looked at a ton of games, and they produced a library’s worth of stories, exclusives, and video content.
In case you missed out on it or you’re looking to read something specific, we’ve gathered up all the content for you to peruse at your leisure. We’ve highlighted several of the biggest games below as well, so if you’re keen to read up on how Final Fantasy 7 Revelation has some killer fashion, how Resident Evil: Veronica is shaping up to be Capcom’s next big game, or how Gears of War: E-Day will have you saying “nice” when you pick up a very special firearm, take a quick browse below.
Don’t forget, you can also check out GameSpot’s YouTube channel for more original content, and we’ve also embedded several videos below for you to watch.
