Hey guys.  So I'm going to E3, and I'll be posting everything that I can get pictures of or info about.  If you guys have any games in particular that you want me to check out, post them here and I'll try to.  But enough about that, Microsoft's big annoucement doodad was today!  Here are the highlights:

- Left 4 Dead 2!?  L4D hasn't even been out that long, and they're already getting ready for a sequel?  Better yet, a sequel that should be released in November?!  If it's truly that close, I expect that they're going to have a playable version on the floor, and I'm going to stand in line all day if I have to to play that sucker.  In other words, PILLS HERE!

- Crackdown 2 is coming sometime in 2010, even though I've never played the first, I've always heard good things about it.

- Two Halo announcements, first off Halo:ODST is priced as a complete game instead of just an expansion pack.  Not too sure if it'll deliver there, but the Collector's Edition controller is awesome looking.



- The second Halo announcement is that a new game is coming (act surprised) sometime late 2010.  Halo:Reach is probably going to take place on the planet of Reach before the timeline of Halo 1.  Does this mean we'll see the OPistol again?  Possibly.  Conveniently enough, if you buy Halo:ODST you get an invite to the Halo:Reach multiplayer beta sometime in the future.

- The Beatles: Rock Band.  My parents are bigger Beatles fans than I am, but this looks really well done.  I'm picking this up for sure, even though I'll have to endure my mom singing 'Back in the USSR' forty times.

- Final Fantasy XIII coming to the 360 in spring 2010, although take that date with a grain of salt.

- Last.FM is coming to Xbox Live for Gold Subscribers.  Although I've always been more of a Pandora man, this is absolutely great news.  Now I really want to know if you could turn Last.FM on and leave it playing while you go play some GoW...

- Metal Gear Solid: Rising announced for Xbox 360.  The problem?  It's starring fucking Raiden.  Snake?  Snake?!  SNAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!

- For all you racing game addicted, Forza 3 is coming this October.

- Microsoft's Project 'Natal'.  Perhaps the most interesting thing they put on display there, although I'll believe it's that good when I see it.  You thought putting a Wiimote through the TV was bad?  Try your fist.

I'm really not looking forward to any game this year unless SC2 decides to come out.

[Killer344]

Mass effect 2.

[Scyn]

Oh right. I forgot about ME 2, that's another one I'm hopeful for.

[Killer344]

It will likely kick ass like the 1st :O, the new trailer is pretty cool.

[stumpster]

Still writing up the EA/BioWare announcements today.  Star Wars: The Old Republic, Mass Effect 2, Fight Night Round 4, Assassin's Creed 2, All Points Bulletin, Sims 3, Need for Speed: Shift, etc.

You have nobody but yourself to blame if you let your fist go in. Same for wiimote, tbh. People just get too wild with them, i s'pose.

@scyn:

I completely agree, but I see it happening. 

Decided to just go make a LiveBlog, will be much easier with embedded movies and whatnot.  Check it out over HERE

Mass effect was pretty good, but it was too repetitive.

[Scyn]

Agreed. But aside from the side quests being repetitive, it was a damn good storyline.

[Akranadas]

Fuck Yeah Halo Reach.

The books around Reach were amazing.

[brn4meplz]

Yeah they were good, The entire concept of the Reach system is spectacular. Not to mention something that could actually happen in the future. Humans sure do like lots of eggs in a basket.

lol yeah, the Halo books are probably the best set of game based books I've ever read.

and I can't wait for ME2, despite its game-play issues ME1 was a great game because of the story-line.

[Demon767]

Arma 2

[VariantThirteen]

Still writing up the EA/BioWare announcements today.  <drawn out franchises>

[brn4meplz]

The Halo books were entertaining(the first set of 3 mostly-the recent ones are harder to enjoy) but they clearly lacked proper editing, it felt like spell checking something my son/daughter would submit as homework if i had one.

[Baine]

Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad  plox!

Hope they have something over there 

[HeartBreakOne88]

Hey if possible could you see if you can find some info about M.A.G(MassiveActionGame)
I think its an exclusive for the Ps3....its a 256 multiplayer shooter...looking for release dates, and progress if you can find some

[nugnugx]

COH 2 with EIR gameplay has been announced !! 























oh wait

[Malevolence]

Star Wars The Old Republic had a trailer like trailers are supposed to be done.
