    After the last two years and from the snippets I've heard I'm just going to avoid the Microsoft Press release and the Kinect Advertisement it will be and skip to Nintendo and Sony. I want to see some more Wii U stuff and hopefully some new games announced for the Vita.

    I'm going to try and watch all of the E3 conferences, I always do. Nintendo properly announcing their new console is a big deal, although I'm incredibly underwhelmed by the Wii U at the moment. I fell out of love with the Wii completely and I can't see the Wii U following a different path.

    So I'm most looking forward to more info on games for the 3DS and Vita at the moment. I wonder if the 3DS will receive a surprise hardware update too?

    I can't say I'm particularly excited about any game announcements on the PS3 and Xbox 360 at the moment. I'm sure I will be but I don't have a game I'm following for info... over to E3 to make me excited

    I am most looking forward to Valve not announcing Episode Three.

    I look forward to more Microsoft and Sony begging to buy their overpriced motion control devices.

    But mainly valve. Good only valve. Even if they said they aren't announcing any new games they will.... one day....

    Still got a wishlist though...

    - SEGA announce Skies of Arcadia: Legends for XBLA along with Shenmue 1&2.
    - Dead Space 3.
    - Grand Theft Auto V info (seems doubtful)
    - BioWare have new Mass Effect stuff. Either some more info on the extended ending or an incoming MP expansion.

    Got somethin that might interest ya! http://www.edge-online.com/news/shen...-finished-year

    I'm hoping for more Dust 514 info (hopefully a release date )...possibility of it going open beta around E3 as well.

    Also going to be watching for more information on Arma3, and X Rebirth...

    Final Fantasy Versus XIII info would be nice even though I don't own a PS3 but that proabably won't be out for another 100 years.
    From what I've read Final Fantasy Versus XIII wasn't annouced on Square Enix's line up, unless they randomly pull it out of the hat but that seems kind of doubtful.

    Persona 4 Arena somewhat interests me, and it'd be interesting to get a better insight into the new DMC game, although I still don't really like how they changed Dante to be honest. Also I only recently played and finished the first Assasin's Creed and I'm looking forward to playing the rest of the games, so it'd be interesting to see a bit about Assassin's Creed 3 as I've kinda been avoiding looking at it so far.

    Re: E3 2012
    What I want to hear from E3:
    - Skyrim DLC details/release date
    - GTA V details/release date
    - Mass Effect 3 extended ending DLC release date
    - 3DS Lite release date, as I've not got a 3DS yet but will get one when the updated version comes out.
    - Details about some amazing brand new game we haven't heard of before, that isn't a sequel to any current game series, as I think there's too many sequels.
    - Details about next gen Xbox and PS4 release dates.

    Let's hope Peter Molyneux doesn't make an appearance. I've had enough of his garbage.

    Molyneux has become a real life troll. It's a shame considering the games he has made in the past but he's reached that point where he makes so many grandiose promises of innovation and exciting features, which never really surface. The last 3 Fable games are a testament to that. I don't even know what happened to the promising Milo thing. Probably put up for adoption.

    True. Fable was such a promising franchise after the first game, instead it's slowly gone down hill.

    LucasArts revealing a new Star Wars game. Please let it be Battlefront 3 or a new Jedi Knight/Academy game. It's not going to be KOTOR 3 but those franchises are just as good.

    Geoff Kightley or whatever just dropped a bomb by saying the next-gen of gaming will be revealed.

    Just Wii U or... :beard: :nooo:

    My bets are that this E3 will be by far the worst and very boring as the consoles are too old.
    The Wii U will most likely be hilariously bad as we will see Nintendo tying to flog a ****ty Ipad controller as a reason to part with hundreds of pounds.

    All I want to see is Epics Unreal 4 engine being demo'd and blowing the hell out of every game and dev there.

    Damn right

    I just think that trying to make new games for consoles this old is truly attempting to draw blood from a stone.
    I would love to be wrong and for some awesome games to be announced, but my knowledge of this field means I realise that this just can not happen.
