Finally, CVG has named its new editor: long-serving staff member Andy Robinson.

Meanwhile current editor-in-chief John Houlihan becomes digital manager, with responsibility for keeping CVG at the forefront of online publishing.

Andy Robinson added:CVG is at the cutting-edge of global gaming news and I am delighted to be appointed Editor. To lead a full-strength team into the next stage of the site’s evolution is an incredibly exciting opportunity, and I already have big plans for our coverage of E3 this year.”
