July issue of PCFORMAT offers 64-page supplement on E3

The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), which took place in Los Angeles 4-7 June 2012, will be covered in a 3D, 64-page supplement in the July issue of PCFORMAT, out today, 2 July 2012.

Its editor, Nicholas Boerma, says, "3D might not be new, but a full printed 3D magazine is likely a first for SA and the team thought it was a pretty cool way to bring the vibrant event to local gaming enthusiasts. Within the pages, we bring you our hands-on with 100 upcoming games. There's full coverage of all the big conferences including Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft, along with a tour of the show and the annual G3AR E3 awards. There's an in-depth look at the new Wii U controller and some one-on-one time with Warren Spector, the creative genius, designer and producer behind franchises like Dues Ex and System Shock."

Panorama digital head, Dawid Venter, adds, "Though it's every gamer's dream to attend E3 one day, this is as close as we can to bring those less fortunate to the show. E3 consisted of very early mornings and very late nights to ensure that this supplement made it on time for the July issue. On 9 June, the supplement was completed and today readers will have it in their hands in complete 3D."
