Also in this week’s Georgia Straight is my preview of the games to come this fall. It all starts next week with Resistance 3 and Space Marine. Gears of War 3 follows soon after.

When will we find the time to play?

As @BenKuchera tweeted tonight: “I’m looking at my stacks and e-mails and going: how will I get done? Then I think: I really get to play all THIS for work?”

Admittedly, many of the games coming this fall are sequels and new chapters in franchises with which we’re all familiar. But we’ve got high expectations of them. Here’s what you can look forward to playing over the next few months.
