Only 2 games in that list caught my attention, the new Zelda and Soul Calibur II, anyway, the main show will be the 3 new consoles, not the games.

Oh noes! Everquest II expansion... there goes my sallary...

By the way, nice to see that nintendo is finally coming to their senses by delivering FE titles to this side of the world... sucks that they contracted Square's syndrome of naming the US titles with whatever number they want but I guess you can't have it all.

[Syed Fawad]

New Zelda and Soul Calibu III only?

maaaaaan, do you have ANY idea about F.E.A.R ?!?!?!

I'll be watching out for most of the PC games up there, especially the FPS games. What's going to be more interesting are the games that are kept secret. Rumors are that Prey is going to be there this year and I'm also hoping that Spore will also make an appearance. But this E3 is all about the hardware, I hope they have plenty of games to show with the new systems and not just tech demos.

[Ipswitch]

I think we can safely expect FF12 and KH2. They don't usually release their game list too early.

[Syed Fawad]

Square enix always comes late. And perhaps Konami may add more stuff, like Silent Hill 5

I don't get it.

Has anyone here has any idea about F.E.A.R ? It is an AMAZING game from what I have seen so far of it. Its like........Matrix + Silent Hill ...an FPS with bullet time and lotsa gore and great atmosphere. The story seems intriguing too and this game is REALLY spooky.

Check it out if you haven't, it cannot be neglected.

F.E.A.R. is going to kick a lot of ass. I've been following it since it was first unveiled. I can always depend on Monolith to make a good and fun FPS game. I just wish I could play the multiplayer beta that the Fileplanet subscribers get.

Another good game by them to follow is Condemned which will use the F.E.A.R technology.

Updated the list a bit...some more UBISoft titles are there now including Prince 3. Lesse how this one goes.

about FEAR, well I don think the tech is all that revoluionary. I was more amazed by the atmosphere it built. Plus little girls with noise effects and bizarre music are always cool in a weird manner

It's certainly not revolutionary but it looks damn good.

[Razor Blade]

Hmmm not a bad list at all. No Square-Enix? Hmmm not too many PSP games announced yet, but hopefully that will change.

S-E usually keeps its E3 list as secret as possible, we'll probably see a close to final build of FFXII, Grandia 3, and most likely some next-gen tech (hints ?) demos (most likely PS3).
