19 Best Video Game Moments From E3 2016

6. Watching CD Projekt RED Continue To Be The Developer We Deserve

By and large, although the fourth quarter of 2015 and ALL of 2016 has given us some of the best video games of all time (yes, really), CD Projekt RED are still the bastion of hope that the industry can be something greater than its past-decade self.

What does that mean? Well just think to Assassin's Creed: Unity, Sim City's launch, Driveclub, NBA 2K13, Batman: Arkham Knight's PC performance - it's not a good picture, is it?

However, rather than continue releasing buggy, naff products with zero-post release support, CDPR have not only pumped out free DLC and endless fan-demanded fixes, but now they're adapting card minigame Gwent into its own release. Just because they can.

The Hearthstone-challenger won't be releasing for some time (but has a beta signup right now), yet exists purely because the fans willed it into being. How awesome is that? If we'd had such social media power back in the day, Final Fantasy VIII's Triple Triad would've been a dead cert.
