E3 Wrap Up

So I said I would have this up on Saturday before 3SN, but I got lazy... Great... Well, late is better then never... or something like that (I can never remember the expression)

Here's some of the picks from E3 this year:

Nintendo:

De Blob

Originally started as a Free-Ware game, and then THQ got their hands on it. I really love the style of the whole thing and very excited for when this comes out



Wii Sports Resort

WiiSports 2 pretty much. It comes out next year and comes with a free WiiMotion Plus adapter (improves the Wii Remote Controls). Should be good if done right



Deadly Creature

It does not blow you away, but I just like the concept of it



Animal Crossing:City Folk

I have tried this for the GameCube and the DS, and I am not so much a fan, but with new Mii integration and WiiSpeak (a mic for the Wii), it could be an interesting title



Kirby Super Star Ultra

I played this game to death as a kid on the Super Nintendo. Now, it gets a port to the Nintendo DS with added features



Microsoft

Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

This game is making you use a lot more creativity then in the previous N64 installments. The graphics look really good and the game's framerate seems to hold up.



Geometry Wars 2

Do not even laugh. The original was AMAZING. Now, with more modes and multiplayer. It's really a must buy



Final Fantasy XIII

After much debate whether or not this was going to stay exclusive to Playstation 3, Final Fantasy XIII makes it's way to the X-Box 360, getting the same release date in North America and in Europe as the PS3 version



Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise

Now, I have to admit. I did not play the first one. It was always on my "To get ist", but I never got around to it. My brother has it on his PC, so maybe one day he is not home... I mean...



Netflix

For me, this was really the feature about the 360, that got me excited.



SONY

LittleBigPlanet

Ahh... You have got to love Sackboy. He is just so darn lovable... It comes out October, and if you have an imagination, you will fun with this one.



DC Universe Online

Batman and Superman team up? Online?? With thousands of others worldwide??? Dreams have become reality



Patapon 2

If you do not have the original. It's only 20 bucks brand new... Very much worth it...



fl0wer

Beautiful game. I am not sure how it plays, but like I said... Beautiful, even if you are not into gardening



Star Wars Force Unleashed (PSP)

...on the PSP? And it looks like it plays well too? I am shocked



Mutliplatform

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 Fusion



Lego Batman



NHL 09
