E3

I haven't blogged much lately, but don't worry. You're about to get all you can handle. E3, the big video game expo, returned to its former glory after a few years in the wilderness. Since I began closely following gaming news, I can't remember a bigger amount of significant games and potentially groundbreaking innovations announced at one time. I'll get into things more deeply, but I wanted to do a quick series of lists of things that intrigue me about E3.

Biggest Surprises
1. Mario Galaxy 2 announced
2, Metal Gear Solid: Rising announced for 360 as well as PS3
3. Final Fantasy 14 announced before 13 even comes out

Biggest Disappointments
1. No new Zelda game for Wii
2. PSP Go! is 250 god damn dollars
3. God of War 3 pushed back to March 2010

Most Intriguing Games
1. Alan Wake
2. Borderlands
3. Star Wars: The Old Republic

What the Fuck?
1. Nintendo announced Wii Vitality add-on
2. Sony not announcing a price drop for PS3 or PS3 slim
3. Square announcing Final Fantasy 14 before 13 comes out
