everything in bold is going to be the "on the radar" games for me.

While Splinter Cell blew me away, having a different voice for him really irks me so far.

So much good stuff I'm excited for

Yeah not have Ironside's voice for Sam actually really pisses me off. lol

[Yannie Boy]

Usher.......

[Fargoth]

Honestly of all E3 so far the only thing that has blown me away is Last of Us for the PS3.

[Variation-XBA]

Didn't see the gameplay for Watch Dogs?

I thought you would have screamed when the new Elder Scrolls MMO was shown lol.

[Symmetric-XBA]

that game actually looked amazing. the innovation surprised the crap out of me. here's hoping the execution is as good.

[Sam-XBA]

Sim City - can't wait! But it's not out until Feb 13

Halo 4 does look like it will keep me fixated until then. Interested in one or two other titles, but nothing else really caught my eye. I want to see more from Forza Horizon (as long as they keep it a simulator) and sleeping dogs.

[Fargoth]

And actually no I didn't see Watch Dogs was in class, looking up now.


As for Elder Scrolls did nooot see that before I posted. (To be fair it didn't really show anything)

[Symmetrics Love-XBA]

I think my top 3 out of these choices would be

#1 Halo 4
#2 SplinterCell: Blacklist
#3 Fable: The Journey


The rest I'm not really impressed with. Well maybe Tomb Raider wouldn't be bad, I may give that one a chance. All the rest though, not interested. The arcade titles set to launch all looked ridiculous with the exception of South Park.

Xbox Smart Glass looks pretty sweet, It will be interesting to see how they integrate it, but the rest of the apps etc aren't to appealing to me. I dont care if i can search the internet on my "GAMING CONSOLE" I have a computer that does the same thing! It seems like Microsoft is trying to make the Xbox 360 and all future consoles, a super machine, but at the end of the day, the Xbox is still a gaming console. All of the features introduced, while it may be cool to think your Xbox can do all of this, are all things I already have access to when I turn on my TV, my computer, etc....

So I guess all I'm trying to say is, the technology and ability to do these things might be cool but so over the top and unnecessary. Makes the Xbox seem to "busy"

for me, Halo 4 is what grabbed my attention the most. after that, the last of us looked amazing, tomb raider looks awesome, splinter cell looks cool (i noticed the voice too), smartglass blew me away, watch dogs looks very interesting, and the south park game looks epic.

[Kamshaft-XBA]

Great job Gail for posting this! Hopefully none of the games will suck!

[Soda Jones]

I'm interested in The Last of Us and Watch Dogs. MOH and COD looked like more of the same, not very interesting. I'll have to watch the whole Halo 4 video but I'm kind of burned out on it(halo). I'd really like to see a Halo game with Homeworld type gameplay (space ship rts). Some of the unsc fleet battles in the books are amazing and I want them to explore that in a game.
