E3 '14 Lockdown Megamix Ultra Hardcore Edition

by sparky_buzzsaw

In between all the hot jams, the shirtless shenanigans, the beefiness of Beef, the dancing Teddies, the fighting Reggies, the girl wood, and all the feels (I hate myself for saying that), there were some games announced or demo'ed at E3. Here are some of my favorites of the show.

Dead Island 2

1. Dead Island 2

I loved Dead Island. I even really enjoyed Riptide. So the news that we're getting a new Dead Island on top of te already Dead Island-ish Hellraid and Dying Light makes me one happy camper. Plus, I really liked that CGI trailer. Good stuff.

Grim Fandango

2. Grim Fandango

One of my all-time favorite adventure games is getting remade? I'm fuckin' in, you're fuckin' out!

Far Cry 4

3. Far Cry 4

Mauii wowee, this game! That gameplay demo was astoundingly cool, and the CGI trailer was pretty neat to boot. Really looking forward to more Far Cry.

Destiny

4. Destiny

I hear people complaining because this looks too much like Halo, or Destiny, or both. To me, that's excellent news. I love both those series and seeing them get mashed up gets me all hot and bothered. Plus, that hawt PS4 bundle. Rawr.

Splatoon

5. Splatoon

Original IPs from Nintendo are a rare breed these days, but this looks like a riot. Paintball meets King of the Hill gameplay? Yes please.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

6. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

I haven't been excited for a COD game in a long time. I am for this one. The sci-fi elements look neat without being too crazy. It looks freakin' gorgeous, and most of all, it looks like there will be ways for me to see the baddies. WOO HOO!

Xenoblade Chronicles X

7. Xenoblade Chronicles X

I wish this game was coming out for everything, and not just the Wii U. Looks so meaty and good.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

8. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

It looks gorgeous, and hopefully, it continues the excellent narrative and characters set up in prior games.

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

9. Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

This game had a hell of a showing at E3, and with good cause. The underlying gimmick is fantastic, seeing your enemies gain ranks for killing you. This is the first Middle Earth game I've been excited for in a long, long time.

Dragon Age: Inquisition

10. Dragon Age: Inquisition

Looked pretty good. Maybe not quite as gorgeous as I'd hoped, but man, I'm looking forward to a big ass quality Bioware RPG.
