Press A To Jump Episode 16 E3 2011 Special

Today we go over the Electronic Entertainment Expo hosted in Los Angeles from the 7th o the 9th of June 2011. We go over all that was on offer from the announcements on the show floor to the 6 huge conferences made by Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo (the worst conference), EA, Ubisoft (the best conference) and Konami. During all of this we still manage to find time to cover news from other companies and information unveiled on the show floor! We hope you enjoy!
