Usually this time of the year I’d be as excited for Sony’s PSX event as I would be for Christmas, but alas, this year Sony have opted to now host their annual event. With Microsoft’s X018 event not being all that enthralling either it’s up to The Video Game Awards reveals to give us our winter hype.
