I'd be interested to see any Zelda announcements, the DS games were good but didn't have the seem feel as a console version. Unless I pick up SMG2 anytime soon this is the only game that will get me firing up my Wii again.

Not too fussed about the motion sensing technology if I'm honest, so wont be picking that up. May be an interesting read though, just to see what ideas they have come up with.

Oh, and obviously looking forward to Sonic 4 info like everyone else :)

What do I want from E3? A lot. But realistically what do I predict? Well in terms of Nintendo (Who I have watched for years) we know of Zelda will be there (although I'm not too fussed about it to be honest) 3DS (again not fussed) and the vitality sensor (once again meh...)

But Pikmin 3 has been in development a while apparently so expect that. Rumours are floating around about a new Mario Kart or Starfox. Both would be good news :)

Luigi's Mansion oddly enough could happen seeing as Nintendo trademarked it again and also the voice actor for Mario mentioned in the past he was recording for a new Mario series title that wasn't New Super Mario Bros Wii or Mario Galaxy 2. Would love to see the game come back for a sequel.

Then Sonic Colours, Conduit 2, Sonic 4 and something I'm really hoping to be amazing is Epic Mickey. Apparently it has gotten a new face lift and if the artwork is anything to go by we could be in for a treat. Rock Band 3? New keyboard included this time. Fun fun.

In terms of Sony and Microsoft we have the two motion sensing hardware pieces, the new Halo, Gran Turismo etc... but I'm not bothered by Sony. Might watch Microsoft if I get a chance.

So, predictions for E3?

Microsoft will give definitive pricing and release date for Natal, as well as showing off a few more games and uses for it.

Nintendo will re-show the Vitality Sensor, my reaction of "lol wut" will stay the same unless it has real applications. Some new Mario game will be shown, possibly Mario at the World Cup...or something.

Sony will show off Playstation Move, possibly showing games running on it in real time. They will also show more off of LittleBigPlanet 2, and finally give a release date for GT5. 3D gaming will be shown on the PS3. The long awaited PSN Dreamcast classics will be shown, as well as the new premium PSN services. Sonic Adventure will be available for free for those who get PSNP in the first few weeks.

More information for the following games:

Final Fantasy Versus XIII
Final Fantasy XIV
Metal Gear Solid Rising
inFamous 2
