I dont know if youre aware of this but I really like video games, I mean really like video games.
The whole reason I studied 3D art at university was with the hope of making assets for games,
my music taste as a teenager was infuenced heavily by racing games (Burnout, Midnight Club,
Gran Turismo ...), and if I was given a choice to watch a World Cup match with my country playing
or watch Ubisofts E3 press conference, itll be Ubi all the way. So putting this issue of Ceiga Plus
together has been pure passion project for me and I hope to do more issue like this in the future.
If you are a publisher or developer of a game and want to promote it in a unique way, fell free to
send me images or videos, preferably of games that havent been released yet.

Now to talk about whats in this issue. With the arrival of E3 2014 (Electronic Entertainment Expo)
or departure depending on when youre reading this issue, Ive put together a group of impressive
looking games of the last generation so I can truly wave away the graphics of the last generation
and get ready for the new generation of game graphics. All of the images are screenshots not
taken by anyone directly involved with the creation of the game but by players of the game and
most of the shots for this issue were taken by Duncan J Harris (deadendthrills.com) who was nice
enough to let me use his images.

As you may have noticed this isnt a main issue of Ceiga but a Ceiga Plus instead, mainly because
like the frst issue of Plus this is also an experimental issue which means the more people that view
and share this, the more of these types of issues Ill make.

I hope you enjoy this issue and if you have feedback of any sort please dont hesitate to let me
know.
