Resistance: Retribution Wins "Best of Show" at Leipzig

Well, the Leipzig game conference is wrapping up in Germany, and like every big industry event, gamers are left debating the winners and losers. Conference organizers have made our job a little bit easier, by chiming in themselves about which games they thought stole the show.
