Today, SouthPeak Games have announced the games they will be showing at the Leipzig Games Convention this year (20-24th August, 2008).

SouthPeak games has just launched its X-Blades official art contest. With prize money up for grabs and the chance to have your artwork appear in a publication, it's certainly worth considering if you've got a good eye and a steady hand.
