After watching all of the press conferences, watching trailers, and demos at E3 here's what I think so far:
- Microsoft and Sony had the best press conferences at E3
- The Nintendo PC was mediocre
- EA PC was ok although I am stoked about all of the Bioware stuff they showed us
- Ubisoft was a SNOOZER, good lord I never knew I could hate James Cameron this much because he just went on and on and on and on about Avatar without showing us JACK ALL
- Splinter Cell Conviction looked different than from what I expected about a year ago. but overall I'm very excited to see more of it
- Assassin's Creed 2 looked AMAZING. Very different from the first game. The demo was just intense now that you can take other people's weapons, wield two of those hidden blades, and from the looks of it new ways to take out guards and other bystanders
- MAG really surprised me this year. 256 player multiplayer just blew my mind
- Brutal Legend hasn't really caught my attention yet, but it looks OK at the most
- Left 4 Dead 2 was announced this time with more characters, campaigns, a hint at a possible story line, and improvements to the AI director. All in all VERY STOKED for this
- Metal Gear Solid Rising really surprised me due to the fact that A) it's a 360 exclusive and B) it's starring Raiden this time around. But something tells me that this isn't gonna be your typical sneaking around kind of game...
- God of War 3 I am excited for like in good ol' God of War style it looks seriously epic so I hope to see more of this soon. (UPADATE: I just saw Kratos rip of a mans head HOLY BALLS)
- Metroid Other M was one of the few games that made me jump for joy. Like having Team Ninja (The team behind the Ninja Gaiden series) helping out with development on is just amazing. Judging from the trailer this will be a 3rd person adventure game with some 1st person throw into the mix. The trailer didn't really give away a lot but it sure wet my appetite
- Super Mario Galaxy 2 was a nice little treat because you get to finally use Yoshi
- Project Natal from Microsoft looked very interesting, the fact you don't need a controller anymore really caught my eye. It really had a "Minority Report" feel to it all but I was impressed. Cannot wait to see more
- A new motion sensing controller for the PS3 was announce...all I'll say is that it looks a lot like the Wiimote...
- Halo ODST was a wee bit underwhelming for me. Like I feel like they haven't show enough yet but I'm sure as someone shows some gameplay footage I'll get a better understanding of it
- Halo Reach on the other hand got me very excited. Prequel to the Halo series, so I expect a lot more Spartans this time around
Look for Part 2 Tomorrow
