E3 2008 Discussion Thread (E3: July 14-17)

Official E3 Website

With E3 a couple weeks away how about a fun little discussion. To get warmed up, let's start with: Post 5 games you want to hear about most from the event and 1 'surprise' title you want to see.

In no particular order:
1. Beyond Good & Evil 2 - does it really need an explanation?

2. Kid Icarus - all but confirmed, just give me some details already!

3. Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena - announced when the Darkness came out, but not a word has been heard since. Is the game still alive or D.O.A.?

4. Serious Sam 3 - announced about this time last year, but like Riddick, not a mention since. This is a game tailor-made for this gen. Imagine the sheer number of enemies they could throw on screen!

5. GH:WT and RB2 - Lame lumping them together? N'ah, it's all about the music. Can't wait to get more details and song selections on both. Give me cross game instrument compatibility damnit!

Bonus
6. Pikmin - Come on already Miyamoto, the game is perfect for Wiimote functionality, where is it?

Rock Band 2 - Guitar Hero who?

Dead Rising 2 - Give me online co-op and over 1000 weapons and I'm set

Gears of War 2 - Duh....

Halo Wars - Possibly the only good Halo game ever released...like it was supposed to be in the 1990's

Heavy Rain - Nothing since E3 2006 and Indigo Prophecy was awesome.

Oh yeah, what did ever happen with that Chronicles of Riddick game??

Thought process: Jade Empire -> Jade -> Beyond Good & Evil -> Oh, yeah! BG&E2. Did everyone already forget about that?

Can't wait to see the RB/GH Lists. Also, looking forward to Nitnedo's big anouncements. Not sure the 360 will do anything that will change my opinon of the console (I like it, there's nothing like avatars or anything that would get more than a "meh" from me)

Well their releases are already set in stone, so I doubt there will be much in the way of surprises. For the rest of the year they have a solid title every month. Viva Pinata 2, Too Human, Banjo & Gears 2.

True, true. I don't think there's really anything M$ can do to impress me.
