The Best of E3
The Electronic Entertainment Expo is the Super Bowl for gamers. A three day conference where all the big games are revealed and all the shocking announcements are made. This year was a bit underwhelming when compared to the huge announcements of years past, but there are still some things I'm very excited about. The following are what I consider to be the top three things to come out of this year's E3 conference.
THE LAST OF US GAMEPLAY DEMO
From the creators of the peerless Uncharted series, comes this post apocalyptic story of a man and a girl surviving with what's left. The relationship between the man and girl is unclear, but it's an interesting story dynamic. There's also talk of "reactive AI" where enemies react to your current weapon, sounds you make, whether or not you're out of ammo and so on. Graphically it looks incredible. Only downside? No release date, and it's definitely not coming this year.
ZOMBI U GAMEPLAY TRAILER
Considered by many to be the only somewhat positive thing to come out of Nintendo's abysmal E3 Press Conference, Zombi U shows off what the Wii U Gamepad can do for a mature themed game. Little else is known about the game overall, and many are predicting that this will ultimately be an on-rails shooter experience - but nonetheless, this is the only hope gamers are clinging to for the new Wii U.
PAPER MARIO STICKER STAR
In my opinion the most exciting 3DS game on the horizon. It looks like this will be the game that really sells the 3D in a fun and creative way. They're shaking things up by eliminating experience points and having you collect stickers for attacks. Interesting concepts indeed. Looking forward to this one.
