* Epic Games to show some gorm of Gears of War 2 Trailer.
* Microsoft have bought the Star Wars Battlefront 3 rights. Trailer/Demo to be shown.
* Rare to announce 2 new games.

* Dead Rising 2 to be shown. May not be ready.

They are some great things to be showing off at E3 and can only make the 360 a more tempting buy. Im really interested to hear about Bungies new game, Rare are games legends and id like to hear what titles they have been working on. Obviously Fable 2 news goes without saying. Im glad they have tied Ninja gaiden 2 as an exclusive and new MSG,Dead Rising 2 and GoW 2 is great news.

Hope the save system is an improved one in Dead Rising 2.

Hope we also get a LITERAL Free-Roaming Mode, not some "Survival Mode." Or "3 Days" Mode. (Dead Rising Fans know what I'm talking about!) And two other things I hope they have: Assuming the Sequel occurs in the WHOLE of Willamette (Capcom got the time and money they needed from Dead Rising) Then I hope they add an ability to make REAL barricades, and I HOPE they have an Amusement Park! (Killing zombies on carousels, ahhh....)

You can actually make really effective barricades in Dead Rising - take example from the guys in the start.

A couple of benches and signs infront of a door will keep zombies at bay.... for the moment.

Great, Im looking foward to this. Any news on Fable 2 will help tide me over.

Oh man, I can't wait for E3, I hope they have info on the only game that is equal to my love of Fable 2, and that game is Spore. But I have a question for people who read this, WHAT do you think Molyneaux will reveal? A Release date? Some more gameplay? New Mechanics? Anyway, I think he will reveal a release date, and also perhaps some more ACTUAL gameplay. And Finally, back to what I'm also looking forward to, Dead Rising 2, the graphics for the first Dead Rising were bad ***, but what do you think the NEW one will look like? (I'm hoping for Ragdoll Physics this time, and a LOT better Targeting mechanics.)

Albion Knight · 06-22-2007, 10:28 PM

I don't think he'll reveal a release date. 2008 is still six months away. I doubt it will be in the first few months of 08 either. One thing that has been eluded to in one than one interview is a new combat system. I'm hoping to hear about that. We also may hear another of the "Three Big Secrets" that would be cool.

Given the length of time and a focus on marketing, I think we'll get enough to get our attention but not tell us anything drastically new. You have to spread out the big news and like I said earlier there is still a lot of time left.

[DANCE FOR JOY, SCREAM WITH DELIGHT, CHEER AT THE TOP OF VOICE]

ROBERT LUDLUM'S Bourne Trilogy game!!!!!!!!!!!!! That will be really, really, cool. If they include The Bourne Legacy, though, which was written fairly recently by Eric van Lustbader and, in a word, sucked, I'm going to be ****ed. But the real Bournes-- Identity, Supremacy, and Ultimatum kicked ***. Be warned, though-- if you saw the movie and thought it was confusing (possible, I suppose) then prepare to be REALLY confused with a game based on the real thing. The Bourne books (and most of Ludlum's other books) were very confusing/mysterious. Even the one Lustbader wrote, Legacy, tried to pull that little facet off, even though it ended up seeming more crappy and imitative (and failing at the imitation) than really good.

STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 3??????? Why wasn't I informed? [grin] I had no idea they were coming out with one, but I can't wait. I just hope they bring back atmospheric flight. That's what I missed most from 2.

And, of course: FABLE 2!!!!!!! But I'm more anticipating Bourne and Battlefront. My hyperactive fever pitch of anticipation of Fable 2 doesn't need more. My heart would probably stop working. (Not really. I'm nowhere near that excited. I reserve that for certain books, but still.)

CRIMSON SKIES 3!!!! Wow, I nearly threw up at how awesome the lineup is!!! Wooooooooooow! There is a lot of stuff to behold...
