EU News Wrap, September 1 - What happened today
It's a news heavy day in Europe. I love news. You love news. Therefore, we love each other.
Today is meant to be when Game Informer is posting its new cover today, so we're sitting tight on that one and ready to go in case its an announcement. Any odds on who it's going to be? I reckon it's Syndicate.
Here is your news:
- Into Dust: New Gears 3 cinematic trailer goes live
This is pretty, pretty good. Give it a watch now. - Nintendo to stream online pre-TGS 3DS event
