Moosferatu Posted May 4, 2006 Might be a bit early for this thread, but the hype seems to have already started. What new games have surfaced that are worth keeping an eye on? I just watched some stuff on Arthur and the Minimoys, and it looks like it could be an interesting little game. Has anyone read the books? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schepton Posted May 4, 2006 OftenK said: Bioshock. Oh man. Oh yeah, I can't wait to see some more info about this too. I just hope they are some surprise announcements. Other than that, Blizzard's new title in development, Hellgate: London, Supreme Commander and no doubt many more I'm forgetting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moosferatu Posted May 4, 2006 I think Blizzard said that they won't be showing anything besides the WoW expansion this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schepton Posted May 4, 2006 Well here's hoping for a surprise then. I need to see a new Starcraft game, it's been too long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

n0wak Posted May 4, 2006 Mostly, I just want to see some real-live, genuine real-time PS3 and RevWii gameplay. Like, actual user controlled stuff running off of the hardware and not off some dev kit "to spec". I want to see how much Killzone won't actually look like last year's "demo". And I want to see some "Warhawk" footage. And a "Pilotwings" announcement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrHoatzin Posted May 4, 2006 Ditto on Chris's list, give or take. I just want to Wii. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oath Posted May 4, 2006 Kingzjester said: Ditto on Chris's list, give or take. I just want to Wii. Undoubtedly, Wii will be what most people want to see and know more about. I think it's looking to be Nintendo's E3, unless Sony do something spectacular, which would be great too. Getting a look at any Wii game they might show will be nice, especially the new Super Smash Bros. That's been in development since last E3, so perhaps it'll even be playable! Will the Thumb be providing coverage this year too? Last year was great and gave a much better idea of what was going on than say Gamespot, which was getting hammered in the ass every way possible.

Markus Posted May 4, 2006 Kingzjester said: I just want to Wii. Seconded. Games, release date, price, and every last detail to be revealed. Also I want to see real games running on the real PS3, as opposed to prerendered movies or demos running on who-knows-what. The more i think about it, the more i realise there's not that many games i'm particularly looking forward to. Pilotwings, Elebits, Mario 128, Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz, and maybe Sonic on PS3 or Wii. Still, I've never been as excited as I am this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jp-30 Posted May 4, 2006 The trailer for LEGO STAR WARS 2; http://download.lucasarts.com/legoswii_480.mov Watch it and weep shed manly tears of joy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marek Posted May 4, 2006 The only regret I have about not going to E3 is not being able to try the Wii. Other than that I look forward to experiencing E3 from the comfort of my home this year. It's a lot cheaper, easier and you can actually process a lot more information than when you're on the show floor. Last year's E3 was a blast but that was more despite E3 than because of it. The money I save is almost enough to buy all three next-gen consoles! P.S. Will any websites broadcast Nintendo's conference live? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marek Posted May 4, 2006 Oath said: Will the Thumb be providing coverage this year too? Oh and to answer this question, we definitely won't be providing coverage similar to last year's because only Doug and Jake are there this time, instead of like 10 people. Who knows, there may be a little coverage, but keep your expectations low. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will any websites broadcast Nintendo's conference live? Nintendo.com will broadcast it live and I think that's about it. Last year their site got crushed right away and wasn't really usable until the show was ending, so I hope they've improved their hosting and processing. Too bad about the coverage, but yeah, staying at home is the only sensible thing to do to get information quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mix n' Match. LEGO RANCOR!!! Glee. I was kind of half looking forward to this in that I'd probably buy it right away but I wasn't following it's development. That just changed. So painfully awesome. ...And still looking for more on that Gitaroo Man thing. Does anyone know about this? EDIT: Holy Crap! PSP Gitaroo! Count me in.

I just watched a trailer for The Ship and it looks pretty cool. It's hard to believe that it uses the Source engine because it looks so different. Very nice.
