Personal E3 Highlights

Jarod | May 17, 2006

So I saw most of the E3 trailers and here are my personal highlights for this year:

Thumbs-up games

Dark Messiah
The possibilities … the moves, the physics …

Spore
It’s fresh … it’s revolutionary … hopefully. This is a wonky candidate.

Crysis
Oh man, this is the reason for me buying my next PC.

Gothic 3
Gee I’ve not seen much, but it’s GOTHIC.

Splinter Cell Double Agent
Chaos Theory was soooo cool. More, bigger, better!

Bio Shock
Well I haven’t seen anything, but everybody who has writes this is gonna be IT. So I go by the public opinion. This time.

Unsure about these

Stranglehold
Big big BIG action, but fun and story?

Dark Star One
Due this week, colourful, but any good?

Hellgate London
FSP-RPG hybrid – will it work? Is it just a 3D-Diablo?

Star Trek Legacy
I really want this to be any good.

Quake Wars
Hopefully more Enemy Territory than Quake.

Alan Wake
The trailer didn’t catch me. Hm.

Thumbs-down games

Lord Of The Ring Online
Looks like a WoW clone set in Middle-Earth.

Battlefield 2142
Looks like an expensive BF2 map pack with a few new units.

Call Of Duty 3
More generic germans to shoot. More target practise.

Test Drive Unlimited
Graphics totally plastic-like. Also I’m sick of racing games.

Did I forget anything?

Update:
Yes I did: Prey, Rise Of Legends, Gears Of War, Hitman: Blood Money, Medal Of Honor: Airborne, Rise And Fall, Huxley, C&C 3 … and then a few
