Read how the staff reacted to this year's big show.

We’ve let the dust settle and even waited long enough for some of the controversial policies to get reversed since E3 wrapped up, but we’ve got plenty of opinions about this year’s show.

Some of us were pleasantly surprised and others were given the huge serving of “meh” we anticipated.
