linear and scripted games should have their own category

It's like you just copy and paste the same sentence every time you post. And it's kinda weird since we've not seen one scripted event in TLOU yet, unless you count cutscenes xD

I was expecting TLOU to score 85-90 and sell about 3-4 million but seeing the hype and the awards (altough just preview awards). I might get a bit more optimistic

like expected (see my sig)^^ everyone has to buy the last of us if he likes single-player and everyone who loves shooters and loves multi-player has to buy halo 4 . YES EVERYONE

Cod 17 for me, thanks.

you are a sad owner of only one console, no wonder you said that

And why the hell is Sound Shapes up there? It doesn't look like a game worthy of this magnitude.


Sound Shapes is pretty good. Level editor, music based platformer. Very interesting, though it did have some tough competition. It might have been a big help that it was very available. Were some of the Nintendo 3DS games playable?

Err... I'm not toally sure.

Sound Shapes was praised by MANY publications. It's a unique and fun looking game so I'm glad it's getting recognition
same goes for Unfinished Swan

as for TLOU...well it's TLOU. Of the demos we saw this was the most impressive one for me. Second place would be either AC3 or watch dogs

I'm surprised Injustice won best fighter...guess it's better than I thought it would be

Was there any other fighter at E3? XD

PC>consoles. Oh and MS should start porting Halo to PC again. Do you think they will with the big Xbox/windows 8 push?

i already ate two of those today, a third would be too much but ty! i know pc is better as console for games on both platforms but since you can't play halo without xbox...no wonder you said that

about halo and pc...no clue. if they want to push the nextbox, they shouldn't but maybe they will (which would be great if pc version would look better then)

Tekken Tag Tournament 2? PS: I love you All Stars if you count that.

Was Tekken really shown off?

PS: I don't really count knock off's but thanks for saying you love me.

to be fair they really didn't have much that got the critics buzzing this year..

@criss: no prob..the trailer and gameplay should be up on youtube if you wanna check em out

Pikmin 3 was really the only thing. The rest was really already shown off or was just not too exciting, I agree.

Pikmin 3 should've won Best of Show!

Is that really true?

Those are the pubs they used in their 2011 awards, which included 35 total. This one includes 34...so yeah it'll look something like that I bet. 

Oh, that's right.  I was surprised going through the years of e3 winners and seeing that Nintendo pretty much never wins, even 2006 they only won with the Wii console, but in terms of everything else they didn't and year after year Nintendo wins none of the games except for Zelda (for the most part).

You know, I don't like how the south park game won over Kingdom hearts in RPG though.  It seems a little like it only won because it's South Park.

I honestly haven't seen gameplay for the southpark title...but I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually because it was 'south park' that it got so much recognition...did KH have gameplay demos at E3? 

@Ninpie: well there were quite a few fighters. Persona Arena, SF vs Tekken Vita, Tekken Tag 2

and yea :P Them Rock Pikmins totally should have made the case for it to be game of the show, rock solid evidence

@zanewane: LOLOL...man you aren't even trying anymore.
