Are you still with me? This is the fourth of the four showcases spanning five hours, and if you’ve been watching or even reading along I’m willing to bet your brain is also swimming with new information that will swim right back out again soon. Not-E3 can be really overwhelming,…

I’m not entirely sure what to expect of the Future of Play Direct, and I like that. It’s being held by Glitch, a creator-led movement bringing bold new forms of play. It seems likely that we’ll see some really innovative things, and hopefully some games that are also just plain…
