Game Over Video Game Art Show @ Giant Robot Just In Time For E3

Looks like Giant Robot adds itself to one of the many events to check out during E3. This might be the first Game Over taking place in LA, it usually went down in San Fran. What I'm excitied about is ArtXGames is back, where artists and game designers come together to make a fun video game.

I'm highlighting the artists whose work I'm looking forward to see.
