Huzzah it werks!

Arguably the most important event of the year for gamers. Thoughts? Speculations? Post em here!

Modern Warfare 2 that is all

then again there are quite a few good games on the list there.

I expect Sony to have the batter show this year - you just feel they've got a lot to announce. A cheaper, no-UMD PSP would be really big news I think, ditching retail would appeal to lots of devs/pubs. They'd need a new slew of games to announce to go with it as well, plus there's bound to be some unexpected PS3 titles as well.

I'm sure Microsoft and Nintendo will have plenty to announce though and a lot of it will be pretty exciting stuff - XBLA on the new Zune/maybe WinMo (Live Anywhere was shown in 2007 iirc, yet to materialize)? Motion control? New Mario/Zelda titles for the Wii? Maybe even a hardware revision with more storage and dvd playback (we know that's coming, more a case of timing).

MS will probably have some non gaming announcements - the rumoured UK partnership with Sky was rumoured and announced today, I imagine they have something up their sleeve for the US as well.

Exciting stuff

Good case for an Xbox in the bedroom

Nice to that Sony are having the fair share of exclusive titles nowadays.

Arkham Asylum, God of War III & Modern Warfare 2 in no particular order please

I've not noticed OnLive making an appearance - surprise surprise.

I'd like to see some proper gameplay footage from Mass Effect 2 and Dead Rising 2 at E3, I'm pretty sure both will be there.

I'm fairly sure the videos shown in the mass effect preview trailer (linked in the op) are all rendered in game. Thing is i'm under the impression that the PC and 360 versions are being developed in unison this time around so i couldn't say which platform they are from.

First big leak really, via Qore, UMD-less PSP is real - PSP Go!

Quote:

"It's a 3.8-inch screen, it's 43 percent lighter than the PSP-3000, 16 gigs flash memory, Bluetooth support and all digital content so the UMD drive goes away so it's going to be something a lot of consumers like - download straight to a hard drive," he tells viewers.
