    Edit: by "what we want", i mean proper coverage and footage of the hottest upcoming games
    ------

    Here's the deal - 
    E3 lasts for only three days, and it has a few conferences, a couple of hours each. This year has a phenomenal unprecedented amount of highly anticipated titles that we all wanna see footage of, and what event is better to do so at than E3 ?
     However, with Nintendo's new console and SONY's new handheld, i'm sure they're gonna keep bragging and talking and bragging and... bragging about the new products/tech, that they won't have enough time to show us the titles we wanna see.
    In addition to Microsoft probably bringing yet another new gimmick and bragging about it, or focusing their presentation on the Kinect.  Even developer/publisher conferences are filled with PR bullshit...


    So i guess what i'm asking here is, in which conferences exaclty do you expect to see all the games we're anticipating ?

    Here's a list of the hottest games coming out in the next 6 months - year: (which are the kind of games we always see at E3 right?)
    P.S. this is the list after getting trimmed.




    I'm afraid we're gonna end up with MUCH less footage than we're anticipating.

    i don't know. i just hope the Ubisoft and Konami keynotes are just as messed up as they were last year. 
    though i'm not looking forward to anything from E3 except.. well, just give me some Ninja Gaiden III details and i'm fine

    Aliens: Colonial Marines will continue to be not mentioned. So no.

    I will accept absolutely nothing less than Gabe Newell appearing on stage and announcing HL3 :o

    Well Episode 3 doesn't exist, the Commander Keen Sequel ive been waiting for also does not exist, a Lego Island remake isn't going to happen, the Wii 2 will still cost more money than im willing to spend, my Video Card isn't getting any younger and battlefield 3 isn't getting any uglier. 
    So no, it won't give me what I want. But i'm picky.

    The US government will be so in debt from people spending their tax dollars on Daily Steam Sales that it will be a President-GabeNewellbot v. 14.3 addressing the United States of valve congress. Other than that your prediction is spot on.

    I would like to see more of Skyward Sword from Nintendo. And this E3 might be very telling of that game. Could it be held back for Nintendo's new console much like Twilight Princess.

    Honestly, there's already tons of stuff I'm looking forward to coming out this year. All I really want are surprises, and if I could predict what I wanted to see, they wouldn't be surprises.

    I think there's only one time I can recall that I wasn't satisfied with e3. I don't know off the top of my head what year it was though.

    STALKER 2, Alan Wake 2, Hitman: Absolution and Battlefield 3 is what I'm looking forward to.

    Though Activision doesn't want to show us Modern Warfare 3? Tsk, tsk.....
