At E3 2013, we saw the future. The future of video games. The future of the PS4 and the Xbox. The future of angrily yelling at random people while we massacre them in Halo. And maybe, just maybe, the future of how we'll watch TV, play games, and hang out with our friends. We're in Los Angeles, and this is Top Shelf, where we look into the gadgets that are taking over our lives and living rooms whether we like it or not.

Just make sure you watch this episode with the volume down. Your Kinect might hear you.
