A lot more trailers spill out from the Leipzig Game Convention 2006. P.S.: Leipzig is in Germany, so the trailers are subtitled in German. There's your global geography lesson for the day! (As if you watched game trailers for the articles anyway!) Thanks to
AtomicGamer for the profuse links, and to
MMORPG.com for their PAX input.
