I will be interested to see if PC get's any kind of floor time this year, what with Microsoft recently claiming that they are focusing on PC and all that again. Honestly though, I'm sure it will get as much attention as it did the last dozen times Microsoft said that too. None.
Will be curious to hear about this Wii 2 thing too. I have been purposely avoiding any of the rumours about it, so I can give Nintendo their best shot to shock and amaze me with it's unveiling.

Other then that, it's always about the games. Out side of a handful of games coming out from people that would never in a million years have the chance to sell their games to people at E3, I can't really think of anything that's coming out in the last half of the year that looked interesting to me. So I get the feeling that this event will make or brake my excitement for this year of games.

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West if I be a winner.

Posted by Claude - April 18, 2011 at 12:40 PM

I'm looking forward to Nintendo's announcement of a new home console at E3. I'm rather stoked about it actually. Should be a hoot. If all the rumors are to be believed.

Posted by ez123 - April 18, 2011 at 12:44 PM

I'm looking forward to some new game announcements. Stuff like Shadow Complex 2, GTA 5, Half-Life 3. A new non-Kinect Rare game, maybe? Okay, Shadow Complex 2 is the only one of those that might happen but I can still hope. Also looking forward to Codename Kingdoms footage.

Enslaved please.

Oh, I totally missed that, my bad!

Well, I'm definitely hoping for an official announcement of Half Life 3/Episode 3, and then seeing something from Remedys new face technology, which is going to be better than what L.A. Noire is doing, according to Remedy.

Posted by SpikeSpiegel - April 18, 2011 at 12:54 PM

I'll probably be disappointed yet again but I'm still waiting to see The Last Guardian fully playable. It is my most anticipated game of whatever year it decides to come out. :P

Audiosurf would be amazing.

Posted by yoshimitz707 - April 18, 2011 at 12:55 PM

I need to know more about Skyrim!

Posted by InfiniteGeass - April 18, 2011 at 12:56 PM

I'm most looking forward to seeing if Nintendo really does reveal their next console.

Posted by Brad_360i - April 18, 2011 at 12:59 PM

To be honest I'm looking forward to the New Developments in Kinect for the Xbox 360. As somebody who has purchased Kinect I was kinda disappointed at the amount of games that have been released for it since its release last year, there weren't very many and if they were not aimed at young children they were all about fitness and I can tell ya, I ain't one for fitness! I'm just hoping they release so games for the casual/hardcore games market that aren't amazing by things such as "Kinectimals", I a decent fighting game, maybe even a shooter!

Posted by iam3green - April 18, 2011 at 1:00 PM

i'm most excited for this year of E3 is, what nintendo's new console is going to be and even if it's going to be a entirely new console instead of an upgrade.

Posted by pantzing_nome - April 18, 2011 at 1:11 PM

It would be awesome too see GTA 5, Shadow Complex 2 and Half Life Episode 3 get announced as well as see some more of Saints Row 3, Rage, Mass Effect 3 and Uncharted 3.

Posted by melcene - April 18, 2011 at 1:14 PM

I'm most looking forward to things we haven't had announcements for (or leaked info) yet.

Posted by Conker - April 18, 2011 at 1:15 PM

Here's hoping we see Doom 4 this E3.

Posted by Cincaid - April 18, 2011 at 1:16 PM

I'm very very excited to see if Microsoft and/or Sony will reveal a new console. I love my X360, but I also feel it's due for a new generation leap.

When it comes to games I'd die a happy man if I'd see any of the following titles announced for the X360 (except the MMO obviously):
Just Cause 3
A new Culdcept (released in EU this time as well)
A new Katamari
Condemned 3
Something new from Rare that's not linked to Kinect (a new Banjo-Kazooie maybe?)
Dark Cloud 3
A new Tales game
Borderlands 2
More info on Blizzard's next MMO
Plants vs. Zombies 2
A new Peggle
Shadow Complex 2

The list can go on and on, but that's just what springs to mind right now. :)

Edited by Pessh - April 18, 2011 at 1:25 PM

RE6, some XIII-2 news, new Sega console.

Oh and killing floor if I win please lol.

Posted by Mento - April 18, 2011 at 1:35 PM

Anything new from Level-5 that doesn't involve top hats and critical thinking (I'm still one or two Layton games behind) or poor-ass Monster Hunter knock-offs (hi White Knight Chronicles). Seconding @CrazyChris: 's Dark Cloud 3 suggestion. Fantasy Life sounds kind of neat too. Honestly, I don't follow E3. I'll get hyped for a game once it's out and the Quick Looks start showing up.

Posted by Hunkulese - April 18, 2011 at 1:36 PM

I'm hoping for some kind of mind blowing announcement that nobody is expecting.

Enslaved please if I'm chosen by the line picker.

Posted by blaze503 - April 18, 2011 at 1:44 PM

Splinter Cell Double Agent or Cogs on steam would be awesome, steam name is blaze503. I only have a pc, this is really cool btw.

Posted by FinalDasa - April 18, 2011 at 1:45 PM

It would be cool to see what is possible in the next series of consoles they may announce, even though I won't be able to afford one lol

Also some good Kinect games, something to be encourage me to actually by the thing.

Posted by Video_Game_King - April 18, 2011 at 1:47 PM

I just want Nintendo to announce a follow-up to the Wii. Get on with it, already!

Posted by nintendoeats - April 18, 2011 at 1:51 PM

I am most looking forward to hearing about something awesome that I had never thought of before (You know, like Portal was back in the day). I don't expect to get that, but it does happen occasionally.

I want Enslaved quite a bit.

Posted by streetninja - April 18, 2011 at 1:54 PM

E3 this year is going to offer a lot of info about games that I desperately want to play, but because they will come out later this year there will be plenty of coverage of Mass Effect 3, Skyrim, Arkham City, and a few more highly anticipated games. What I'm really hoping for is to finally see an official release date for Diablo 3.

I concur

a new Nintendo console has me pumped.

Posted by s7evn - April 18, 2011 at 2:29 PM

hopefully a valve announcement about episode 3 or DOTA 2.

Posted by dungbootle - April 18, 2011 at 3:40 PM

I'm most excited about what Nintendo has to announce, whether it be the rumored console or just new games.

Posted by JJWeatherman - April 18, 2011 at 3:42 PM

I'm most looking forward to whatever Microsoft has to reveal. I play my Xbox a lot, so sue me. =P

Oh, and Enslaved if I'm chosen plz!

Posted by louiedog - April 18, 2011 at 3:44 PM

The idea of a new Nintendo console has me interested in seeing what they do. I haven't owned one of their consoles since the SNES, but I if they're moving ahead before MS and Sony that may change. I'm also hoping for some good ME3 footage, I can't wait for that game. It's my 2nd most anticipated game of this year, but with Portal 2 being my first, it's only hours away from getting a bump.

Posted by shotodrag - April 18, 2011 at 3:52 PM

I am looking forward to E3 this year, more so than any other year. It definitely has the potential to be one of the best. Here's what I'm looking forward to/hoping to see:

1) New Nintendo console announcement.

2) More info on all of the Resident Evil games scheduled for this year (Mercenaries, Revelations, Operation Raccoon City, HD re-releases, maybe even RE6)

3) New info on Silent Hill Downpour

4) Modern Warfare 3

5) New game announcements for the 3DS (Castlevania? Metroid? Mario?)

6) NGP info (like a system name, price, release date, launch titles, etc)

7) Borderlands 2 (Borderworlds?)

8) Fallout MMO and/or Fallout 4

9) Left 4 Dead 3

10) Diablo 3 (doubtful, I know, but a boy can dream)

11) New console Castlevania or Metroid

12) Shadow Complex 2

Edited by FesteringNeon - April 18, 2011 at 4:01 PM

C'mon random line picker... pick me!

EDIT: Also I'm most excited to see if this mysterious "Wii HD" is actually a thing.

Posted by Commisar123 - April 18, 2011 at 4:23 PM

I'm hoping for a half life 3 announcement

Posted by North08 - April 18, 2011 at 4:24 PM

I'm looking forward to Respawn and Bungie both independently announcing their own visionary new fpsmmo projects that will not wind up being very good.

Posted by RelentlessKnight - April 18, 2011 at 4:24 PM

Enslaved

I want to see if Wii Vitality is actually a thing at the Nintendo Press Conference as well as Sony's NGP and how it much better than PSP Go because that thing was bad

Posted by Sparky_Buzzsaw - April 18, 2011 at 4:42 PM

I'm most excited to see what games are coming, and release dates for the games I'm most excited about. I guess of all the three consoles, I'm most excited to see what Microsoft has lined up for the foreseeable future.

Posted by JPtheProdigy - April 18, 2011 at 4:48 PM

would like to see info on a new Rainbow Six and Resident Evil...really hoping to hear something about Half-Life

Posted by CFB - April 18, 2011 at 4:54 PM

At this years E3 I'm really looking forward to seeing more from Mass Effect 3, Saints Row 3, Max Payne 3, Diablo 3 and Battlefield 3's multiplayer. 3.

A copy of L4D2 would be great, if I were to be chosen!

Posted by CoheedFavorHouse - April 18, 2011 at 4:57 PM

i want to see this magic "super wii".

Edited by Enigma777 - April 18, 2011 at 4:58 PM

I'm looking forward to more NGP info and hopefully a price tag.

Audiosurf for me.

Posted by Landon - April 18, 2011 at 5:01 PM

Nintendo has a new console announcement. I'm pretty interested in what that will be
I really hope I get Enslaved.

Posted by EvilTwin - April 18, 2011 at 5:04 PM

I'm always eager to see if Valve has any surprise announcements (you know the one).

I'm also curious to see what's up with the rumored Nintendo hardware.

Posted by ContrarianKing - April 18, 2011 at 5:41 PM

I'm excited for anything I haven't heard of and Skyrim.

Posted by TheRandomKo - April 18, 2011 at 5:43 PM

I'm mostly looking forward to the stuff that always seem to come out of nowhere and surprise me..!

Other than that, i'm interested to see if sony and microsoft has some interesting Kinect/Move titles planned..

Edited by SaturdayNightSpecials - April 18, 2011 at 5:52 PM

If Project Cafe is going to happen, I am incredibly excited to see that. Otherwise, just new 3DS games (like that Mario platformer one) and new NGP announcements/footage.

I also want new info about Zelda SS and Skyrim, so I can completely tear it apart because they've ruined everything. But hopefully not.

Posted by Little_Socrates - April 18, 2011 at 6:35 PM

I'd very much like for Nintendo to announce their home platform to compete with the iPhone, Android, and tablet market that goes for simplified interface and controls with complex challenges in other places.

(I'd like Killing Floor, plz.)

Posted by TehFlan - April 18, 2011 at 7:11 PM

I'm looking forward to Nintendo's console announcement. Curious about what game(s) they might show off for it. Also that Wii Kirby game. What's up with it?

For the record, though, I relinquish my right to actually win this week. Even if I'm somehow that lucky, it hardly seems like that would be fair.

Posted by LittleBigJono - April 18, 2011 at 7:50 PM

It wouldn't take much to make me happy, just hearing something about Mass Effect 3 would do it...
That and winning Left 4 Dead 2 ;)

Posted by BeachThunder - April 18, 2011 at 8:02 PM

I'm definitely looking forward to the announcement of a surprising new IP :o

Online

Posted by ArbitraryWater - April 18, 2011 at 9:25 PM

I want to see some more Skyrim, and also see some of that Wii 2 craziness.

I guess I wouldn't mind Audiosurf.
