Some stuff to check out at E3

Short list of games listed/rumored to be announced/ing at E3 that catch my interest and why:

  • Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine - Always loved the franchise
  • Fat Princess – Looks fun.  Both for myself and my girlfriend always looking for new resource management games
  • Pixeljunk Shooter – I love everything this studio does
  • White Knight Chronicles - Yet another JRPG? Probably, but not like there are a lot on the PS3 right now
  • The Agency - Of course, it’s on my MMO list
  • Half Minute Hero - I had an idea similar to this… want to see how they implemented it
  • Little King’s Story - looks so awesome
  • A Boy and his Blob – remake, skeptical but curious
  • Zephyr: Rise of the Elementals – looks to be a fun katamari clone
  • Nostalgia – fun/aggravating to see steampunk move into the game buzzword category
  • Tatusnoko vs Capcom - not a huge fan of the capcom fighters but this is too interesting as an anime / casshern fan to not check out
  • Dragon Age: Origins - I feel kind of obligated on this one as a dice rolling male
  • Brink – I usually don’t fall for the ‘not-much-is-known’ hook, but this one has me intrigued
  • Singularity - kinda bored of shooters but this looks at least aesthetically interesting
  • DJ Hero / Scratch / Def Jam Rapstar – having predicted this for half a century, am journalistically obligated to follow up
  • Quantum Theory - really just because the title… I’m a sucker for Quantum related sci-fi
  • Alpha Protocol - been following this for a while
  • Seven Haunted Seas – Have some friends working on this, looks really cool
  • Everything Atlus is showing
