Here are a few games that I am quite looking forward to coming out in the coming months, some that I have just found out about in E3:

Quantum of Solace

This game is really looking like it could be a winner in the James Bond series. Only other bonds I like were Goldeneye and that PS2 one where you drove the vehicles, and was co-op etc.
The view seems to be taken straight from Rainbow Six, being first person whenever walking around, but doing special moves, and jumping off buildings, hiding behind cover etc. brings up a 3rd person view, works very well with RS, so should work well here.

Prince of Persia

Watching the walkthrough videos, it looks amazing, really solid, beautiful art style, beautiful movement, my only gripe seems to be the woman always with you, you can't die wtf?!?
That may make it a bit easier, since you wouldn't really care to jump a large gap, even if you don't make it, you can go back and try again, seems like it would be a bit too easy tho.

Star Wars:Force Unleashed

Many people on these forums have been saying that it doesn't look all that good, but I think it looks amazing!
I think throwing guards around and throwing objects at them won't get boring, and the developers can use the force to make the game a lot more creative and interesting. Also, the lightsaber action doesn't look half-bad.

Those are just a few of the games that I am quite looking forward to when they come out, E3 has interested me in them even more!
So what are your views on these games and what other ones interest you?
Don't just list them, explain why you are interested in them, maybe post a vid or 2!:p
 
Quantum of Solace looks like it could be good but i really hope its nothing like Bourne conspiracy with timed button hitting rather than getting on with the action.

I expect it to be good but not holding my hopes to high as a lot of Bond games have been really poor.
 
Bond game looks pants and the only 3D PoP game worth playing was the first one (superb game) so I hope it's like that one.

Sands of Time is in my top 10 greatest games ever created list. The other two were ok but didn't have what made the first one special. New PoP looks really good though.

Only Bond game I've played all the way through was Goldeneye.
 
Yeh, with PoP, it looks like they aren't going for that rubbish dark style that was in the last 2 games, more of an 'painting' style, similar to Okami, and if you watch the videos listed, in motion it does look juicy:D
 
Quantum Of Solace looks ok but I've got a horrible feeling its going to be the same as Bourne Conspiracy :confused:

Main game I'm excited about is BIONIC COMMANDO (yes I know I keep banging on about it on here, but no-one seems to be listening lol), gameplay vid http://uk.gamespot.com/video/943680/6194222/videoplayerpop?

Oh and Ghostbusters is gonna be awesome :D

The action sequences during the cutscenes where you had to press a timed button which didn't really add much to the game imo and made it less enjoyable.

I think Quantum of solace should be good, it has the splinter cell feel in most parts mixed in with a lot of action which appeals to me because i love splinter cell games but i want their to be a mixed aspect of it.

Same, was REALLY disappointed with PoP2. Not got high hopes for this one but would very much appreciate a pleasant surprise.
