The weekend before last I asked our readers, as I do every year, to give us their vision of what E3 2016 might look like. Many of their entries were eerily accurate, and by that I mean not at all accurate, but highly amusing.
This week’s winner, Ginger Snap, combined the growing trend of virtual reality with my crippling fear of spiders to create the sort of E3 experience I would never, ever attend of my free will. For those of you who missed the inspiration, the office in the shot comes from a VR experience called Arachnophobia, which I tried out earlier this month for some stupid, stupid reason.
The rest of this week’s winners are much less spider-centric, I assure you. We’re these real E3 awards, we’d put a sticker on your booth or something. Game developers love booth stickers.
