what are your best and worst impressions of games from e3?

there are too many games to name but my best game was mirror's edge and prince of persia even although i don't like the artistic style

my worst game is fallout 3 just bad graphics, bad terrain and stupid ai

Fallout 3 does look somewhat disappointing. There were so many good-looking titles it's difficult to choose but I'll go with Fable II. Peter Molyneux's demo on GameSpot had me in stitches, he's off his rocker. Looks good though. Worst would be Skate It.
 
Best - FF XIII for 360, everyone wins

Worst- What MS are doing to the dashboard. New guide is very nice-looking, rest looks more like form over function. Gamerpics > MiiAtars
 
I'd disagree - unless you have an Xbox Live Vision cam thing and can put your own photo up, the Gamertag pics really have no association with you. At least with avatars you can make them look something like you. I'm hoping I can get a belly as big as Comic Book Man's, for example.
 
Best is probably seeing Fable 2 or Killzone 2 multiplayer (which does look interesting instead of just some standard deathmatch, it took some aspects of CoD4 and Team Fortress 2). There was nothing that made me lump anything into 'worst' category straight away. I have to say FFXIII was definitely the biggest surprise. It kind of wore away at my £425 justification (it was one of three games I bought a PS3 for) but I'm absolutely not bothered at all, and very eager to see how it does on 360.

There wasn't any massive announcements of any sequels to long-standing franchises though, which sort of made this E3 a little lacklustre. All the biguns are heard of, or released recently.
 
Best - I'd say Spore, Dead Space, Prince of Persia, Mirrors Edge, Darksiders Cinematic.

Bad - Not really sure, I only watched trailers of games which interested me anyway.
 
Best - Xbox - Oooooo loads of games! Didn't realise there was so many.

Worst - PS3 - Where's the games? I have been waiting too long

Have to agree with this really.

Whilst I love the new look of the dashboard (its grown on me already) I can't say I can see myself growing fond of these crappy avatars.

Final Fantasy is great news for me personally :)

Also disappointed with the news that Resi 5 is co-op, think it will take the edge away from the scaryness. Is it true that the whole game you have a partner with you, even when controller by AI?
 
Best ~ FFXIII coming to the 360 was great news as it saves me £300 as all the good rpgs are now the system, Gears 2 showed really really well and Banjo is looking more and more like a day 1 purchase.
Worst ~ Watching the Nintendo conference was like watching a train crash. It made me actually regret buying a Wii a few months ago

Disappointments ~ Too Human didn't live up to the hype, I thought Resistance 2 looked pretty poor, (might play well but graphically it was quite bad) and my tip for goty Fallout 3 didn't have the best showing.

Also I really wanted some news on Dead Rising 2, Bioshock 2, Mass Effect 2, LA Noire and I really want them to confirm Dragon Age on the 360.

I watched the Dragon Age interview on IGN, they didn't even show any footage, was just the guy talking about the game. I was dissapointed with no gameplay but, still sounding like an awesome game.

The interview Dr Ray Muzyka on Giant Bomb and he confirmed that console versions are planned but which systems and when it's likely to come out (other than after the PC version) aren't confirmed.

I can't see it not coming to the 360 since it's demographic (Fable 2, Mass Effect, Oblivion, Two Human) have proved that the sales will be there but it would be nice to have it confirmed.
