"Its that time of year again- E3"

Ahh E3, the best few days of gaming news and anouncments for the year.

Only a month to go. Any want to play and guess what Nintendo, Sony and more importantly MS have up their money filled sleves?

I predict- Smaller Xbox 1.5(or Xbox Next whatever). Slew of new Xbox Live games- hopefully something cool like Deathrow online. Playable form of Halo 2 which will steal the show. Umm new features for Xbox Live...

Common help me out here. List the games you want to see.

Headhunter for xbox!!

Yup. ;-) Might even have 2 DVD's this time to look into - one possibly being a 4 disk set that covers the show. ;-)

I'll keep you updated on it as the info comes along. :-)

your getting hold of that DVD again! i'm there :)

On XBox I'm hoping to see plenty of info and footage of Halo 2. I'm also hoping that we might hear some news on a Conker's BFD game from Rare and what Sega have planned. Tecmo also seem to have a couple of titles planned which I expect will be top notch games and straight onto my wants list. ;-)
With a bit of luck WWE Raw Is War 2 will be shaping up nicely too. Need a good wrestling title on the XBox. :-)
I'll also be looking out for more details on Brute Force as this is looking to be an excellent game. Other than that, its a case of just looking forward in general to what all the developers could announce in terms of titles on the console.

As for Gamecube, I'll be hoping for info and maybe even footage of titles such as F-Zero, the new Pokemon game, Mario Kart (which is supposed to be finished now), Final Fantasy and Harvest Moon.
I'm hoping to get hold of another DVD that covers the show soon enough so I can see how things are coming along. Was excellent to see the games in action last year on the last DVD. ;-)

I think Smilebit/SEGA should 'revamp' the original JSR and release that. And Rez 2 most definately - hopefully this'll be the new 'Panzer Dragoon-style game' mentioned.

Ah yes! Dino Crisis 3! I forgot about that. That's one I'm really looking forward to. The first two games were good.

And that is that. You are, of course, allowed to speculate on these 'other major upcoming releases' which sound intriguing. New games? Yes please..

Rumoured? Confirmed more like. It's a collaboration project between Shigeru Miyamoto and Hideo Kojima - which means it'll sell by the bucketload and exclusivity is a certainty.

It may seem like that, but break things down, and times are much, much worse for Microsoft.
