We had to wait until the end of the conference, but for many the Zelda trailer didn't disappoint. Ever wondered what grown-up Link would look like on the Cube?

Brings out the soft side in all you big men out there? Sicher...

Chronicles of Riddick producer Lars Johansson talks up the developer's Pitch Black prequel.

The original game had a decent Half-Life, and this one looks like it might too...

We went to Chernobyl and came back with a preview. What's this strange lump?

Eight player online options with Warthog-style vehicles, racing levels, more helper bots, Black Hole Launchers and more besides. Shove that up your...
