What do you think will be game of the show?

I' ll say it' s either...

Half Life 2,
Billy Hatcher
or F Zero

Otherwise the vids of MGS3 or Metroid 2.

Not fussed about Perfect Dark Zero.

And holy crap. Is it me or does X-Men 2 *own*?

See you (well Adam and Jen at least) at E3...

Uh... you forgot probably the biggest one! HALO2! That will dominate at least the Microsoft area. They are going to be featuring an actual demo of the game! That' s right! They' ll be playing the game right in front of you!

Half-Life2 will be big I' m sure. I didn' t even know MP2 was in the works but that could be big. MGS3 will be the big gun for Sony. Umm... Fable should be big. Doom 3 should be huge. I' m not sure if there will be a deffinate show stealer though, if I had to pick though, it' ll be Halo2.

GT4
Ratchet and Clank 2
Syphon Filter Omega Strain

Of course!!!!! ; )

See you out there E3-ers!

Corporate mode switched off:

Ratchet 2
MGS 3
Resi Outbreak
Mario Tennis GC

Halo 2. Oh yeah. Duh...

Glad they' re taking their time with it.

I' ve heard on good authority that BG and E is incredible and a potential stealer.

And hopefully Mario 128 will be interesting.

See y' all then.

Here is a really wild guess:

A game completely from the blue that no-one knew about before.
A game that is way into productions and is released just weeks after the show.
A game that has innovative new game-play that actually is innovative and new not just a mixture of several old game-elements.
A game that is non-linear, really non-linear!

More of a which list, but one can hope, can I not?

That is a wish list indeed Peylow!

A lot has transpired since Half-Life first appeared on the videogame scene. Half-Life 2 has a lot of ground to make up.....

Halo 2 is the heir apparent for this years E3.

MGS3 and F-Zero will probably create a significant stir. Although I have no idea why........


Lots of other good titles will fill in the cracks. See you at E3 2004!!!

N.O.R.E.2? Who the hell is he?

Like what? Valve must not be aware of all the games that have been released since it, huh...

After watching the full 8 minute movie of Halo 2 I can definately say I have never seen anything that comes close to how cool this game is. Handsdown my E3 winner!

Your statment renforces EXACTLY what Im trying to say. OF COURSE Valve is aware of all the great games that have come after the original Half-life, and because of that, Half-Life 2 has to surpass those games..... I.E. a lot of ground to make up.....

Well every developer has to go through the same thing. From Doom II' s release to Doom III' s release, id has had a " lot of ground to make up." I fail to see how Valve is any different than every other dev that works on their next release while another is presenting their' s.

Sure every developer has to go through the same thing, but not on this level. Half-Life one was an incredible experience that galvinized its place in gaming history, therefore Half-Life 2 has a lot to live up to in itself excluding all the other great titles that followed Half-Life 1. A game that has a stout lineage to fullfill has more " pressure" on it than a game that is just another installment. For instance:

Do you think the makers of Bloody Roar are overly concerned about the next Bloody Roar game? Compared to say Soul Calibur 2 from Namco?

Alls Im getting at, is that Valve made a great game in Half-Life, so Half-Life 2 has to surpass that game, enthrall the fans of the original as well as capture the attention of new comers to the Half-Life epic while breaking new ground that has been covered by all those games that came between Half-Life 1 and this new installment. You made this into an argument when it wasnt supposed to be one in the first place.

N.O.R.E.2? Who the hell is he?

Halo 2 is looking better IMO Who cares though?! I get Half-Life 2, Halo 2, and Doom 3 all on my Xbox! Gaming bliss!

Half Life2 with Halo2 a close second.I hate to break the news Rampage99,but the last word is that there are now no plans to bring Half Life2 to the Xbox.I don`t know what prompted the reversal,but I read it on IGN a couple of weeks ago.

they quickly reversed it a few hours later

XBOX will get H-L 2
