The NPC's Life Story Aftershow
For this week's Aftershow we dug back into our memory banks to talk about our favorite E3 reveals. Now that not-E3 week is a thing what sorts of announcements from the past were most memorable—either because we were there in person or because they were just that good! If you have an idea for a game we can play in the Aftershow, email it to us at [email protected]! Thanks for your support!
