What E3 announcements are we looking forward to?

As the title says, which games announced (pre-announced?) at E3 are we all looking forward to?

Wii: New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Super Mario Galaxy 2, The Conduit, The Grinder, Dead Space Extraction. Tales of Monkey Island
Metroid Other M was a good announcement and looked like an interesting new take but I want a bit more info on it first. Same goes for the new "experimental" Zelda game.

Xbox 360: Crackdown 2, Mass Effect 2, Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition and for some reason my mind has gone blank now.
 
I'm looking forward to the new Wii Zelda that wasn't announced. :p

Really looking forward to GT5 and FFXIII/FFXIV for the PS3... will play Zelda: Spirit Tracks for the DS... and will play SMG2 for Wii....

There were a few other interesting looking games as well... that Modracing or whatever it was called for the PS3 had what looked to be a really, really powerful track creator that I'm looking forward to fooling around with.

I'm looking forward to the aforementioned Crackdown 2, God of War 3, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2: Fusion, FIFA '10, WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010 and Prototype.

Thanks for that trailer. Hopefully it'll be at least as good as 1.

And yeah Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 would be good. Though I'm hoping they get it back to as good as X-Men Legends 2 was I think the first UA was a bit of a step down.
 
Metroid Other M is the only game that really has me interested to be honest. Left 4 Dead 2 is probably going to be a must buy for me as well, but it isnt something that leaves my jaw on the floor
 
I'm really looking forward to Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Assassin's Creed 2, Crackdown 2, and Perfect Dark for XBLA. Brutal Legend and Shadow Complex both looked pretty good, as well.

There's a number of others that I'm interested in, but am waiting for more information: Bioshock 2, Fallout: New Vegas, TOR, Borderlands, Singularity, and some of those various GTA style open world games like The Saboteur.

There are some others I'm not really enthusiastic about that I'll probably end up getting anyway like Halo ODST.
 
I'm also looking forward to Crackdown 2, but you guys do realize that it's not the orginal developers right? Realtime Worlds is working on APB, which is more like a police vs gangs mmo.

Just listing games that were announced at or right before E3:

PC: Left 4 Dead 2, both of the Monkey Island games
Wii: New Super Mario Bros Wii, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Metroid Other M, The Grinder
360: Perfect Dark XBLA, Crackdown 2
PS3: Modnation Racing
PSP: Resident Evil (as long as it's RE4 style, I dislike the old style RE games)

The Last Guardian.

Sorry, but nothing else compares :)

The Last Guardian had an impressive trailer, it's too bad it got leaked before E3.

I'm not really looking forward to it though, I've tried both Ico and SotC, and while they both seemed like good games I just could not get into them for some reason and I didn't finish either of them.
 
I'm hoping Sony announces a price drop on the PS3. The fact that the PS2 outsold the PS3 in April will hopefully be a big encouragement for them to do so.

I was hoping for that too. I'm interested enough in the PS3 at this point to consider buying it, just not at almost £300...

It doesn't matter when the trailer was released. What does matter is that it was incredible.

I understand that ICO and Shadow of the Colossus didn't grab you. They're very special games that make pretty much everything else out there look like very sad, small potatoes indeed. But they're not to the tastes of the Halo or Final Fantasy crowds. The former begrudges the distinct lack of space marines shooting generic aliens. The latter fails to 'get' a game that doesn't spell out every tiny plot event in agonising clarity - then do it again 15 times just for fun. Or am I talking about MGS fans? Either works, I suppose!

I'm just teasing ;)
