The flood of news is starting to pour in from E3. And so far, one of the show stoppers was of course, James Cameron’s video game adaptation of ‘Avatar’. The promises are great, and honestly I’m more than a little bit skeptical. But will this decade long experiment work? Or will it fall short like so many before it. I really don’t know which side of that fence I fall on yet. But you can’t deny that James Cameron is a fierce visionary. Check out the Ubisoft presentation below for more details from the man himself.
