People from all over the world visited the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles, an annual trade fair for the video games industry, to try out the new PS4 and Xbox One consoles.

The Sony PlayStation booth was certainly busy, with hundreds of gamers stopping by to play various titles.

PS4's DualShock 4 controller has introduced a touchpad, giving control to your fingers. The pad can register two fingers at a time and can be clicked like a mouse button.

One of the highlights of the show has been Microsoft's Xbox One, with features like the ability to monitor your heart rate by detecting how flushed your skin is.

Not everything is taking place inside - there is much more space for the Microsoft X-Box World of Tanks display among palm trees just in front of the E3 expo hall.

Some TV journalists found rather unusual ideas to appear on camera - this reporter sits in a model of the Mario Kart at the Nintendo booth

Nintendo fans got news of many new titles, but some were disappointed that the games would not be released until later this year - or even in early 2014.

Thousands have come to the event - and while waiting to get their hands on the new PlayStation 4, some enjoyed playing the Gran Turismo 6 driving video game for PlayStation 3.

The Last of Us caused controversy at last year's E3 because of its violent content, but the game has gone on to attract some of the highest ever review scores.

Not all characters were on screens - these zombies got out to join the crowd, at the Microsoft X-Box One Deadrising 3 display.
