Gonna update this as and when I see any E3 game trailers that spark my interest. DISCLAIMER FOR WHINING NOOBSThese trailers may not be from games you immediately think you have any interest in. My suggestion would be; watch them, if you feel the need to comment, make it constructive. If you have nothing good to say, don't say anything at all.Team Fortress 2 for OS XNot a new game, but the trailer made me laugh "Think Bullets" www.gametrailers.com/video/os-x-team-fortress/101149Killzone 3From this trailer, it looks like more of the same gameplay we had in Killzone 2. This is no bad thing. I rate Killzone 2 as one of the best FPS' i've played, it's only flaw being it's on a control pad. I put a lot of time into the KZ2 multiplayer, hoping this will be as good. Certainly looks it. And yeah, it's all in-game. Killzone 2 still looks better than most newly released games, even now... www.gametrailers.com/video/e3-2010-killzone-3/101188The Force Unleashed 2This is only the opening cinematic, but just like The Old Republic intro, it's still better than the prequel movies. Story was cool in the first. Of note is, the first was console only, it came to Pc about 2 fucking years later. This trailer says "Games for Windows", so I assume it's launching on PC with the consoles? www.gametrailers.com/video/e3-2010-the-force/101182Quantum TheorySome crazy Japanese shooter. Looks a bit Gears of War. Cool trailer though, interesting choice of music. www.gametrailers.com/video/e3-2010-quantum-theory/101098Gran Taurismo 5Sexy as fook. 'Nuff said, really. POTC: Armada of the DamnedHmm, looks like it wants to be Fable, set within a big Disney license. Could be ok? www.gametrailers.com/video/e3-2010-potc-armada/101192HomefrontI'm liking the look of this the more I see. The guys at Kaos worked on Battlefield 2, so the credentials are there. They're primarily talking about single player in these vids, but I know the multiplayer is team, squad -based.

Regarding the trailers previously posted, i'd only say that The TF2 vid wasn't really funny == However if there's mac-only v pc-only servers that would be ACE!! A proper war that lives up to the trailer! And the best thing about the KillZone3 trailer for me was the music The trailers/ info i'm looking forward to at E3 are: - Portal 2 Surprise - Warhamemr 40K MMO details - Fallout: New Vegas - Possible Witcher 2 details - Civilisation V details - Test Drive Unlimited 2 - Monkey Island2: Le Chucks Revenege - Possible Brink details Nothing on Consoles that really strike my interest.-- So if anyone has details/ vids of these, post away

I rented Forza3 on Xbox and was plesently surprised. The realism was just too much for me and I had to have all options on EASY as I kept spinning the car.. On easy it was enjoyable and I earn a couple of hundred achivements points, but I wouldn't purchase it

well thats it, in realism mode it becomes all about the car you choose. you work for better handling. like my maxxed out ford focus ST. totally customised form engine parts to colour and decals.
awesome game! would just like to try it multiplayer with people i know is all. you can probably pick it up 2nd hand for a tenner. surely its worth that?

So, this is the motherfucker. The best trailer of E3 2009 (which i'll link in case you never saw it - MUST SEE) went to Bioware with their "The Old Republic" trailer.
E3 2009 trailer
And to be honest, nothing is gonna top their 2010 Old Republic E3 trailer. It's awesome. No HD version yet, and to be honest EA are taking it down off youtube faster than you can say "zomg the force!".
I'll link a HD version as soon as one becomes available.

Yup - epic trailer, but it's still just a trailer. What I've seen of the actual game so far hasn't blown me away. If they can make combat on this scale I'll be over the moon.
Cinematically this is drawing me in, but I'm far from sold yet.
And I'm saying this now - I will NOT pre order this game.

So, a lot of people are gonna get this game who never played KotOR 1 and 2, so it kinda sets the scene a bit, and also shows veterans of KotOR 1 and 2 how the galaxy has turned out. To Star Wars fans, it shows its familiar enough to the Star Wars they know, Empire attacking the republic etc, but different enough to give Bioware creative freedom to make a great game (hopefully) and not just remake the movies with you running around being insignificant.

I started a Portal trailer, but as this was released at E3, I feel it belongs here. The portal2 "Surprise" seems to be that the best console version of the game will be on the PS3... However a trailer (AWESOME) and some gameplay footage (WHOOOA) were released: TRAILER: GAMEPLAY: The "physics paint" looks mental.. Looking forward to Co-op

Yeah Rob, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that Starcraft 2 probably deserves that title more

Well, I haven't played CIV V, but I have played Starcraft 2 a few times in beta.. And maybe it would have been good 10 years ago, but the design is dated-- For example, it's a full 3D RTS game, but you can only rotate the camera a maximum of 45 degrees left and right, no manual panning up/down, no easy-to-use unit lists, having to click individual buildings/ upgrades to create certain units... It's little things like that I hate about SC2, after all the great RTS's over the years have given much great freedom and enhanced gameplay -- EG. Company of Heroes, World in conflict, et al. Wheras, this a hex grid system, and disallowing of stacked units, CIV V is a clear evolution of the CIV game and seems to allow far greater tactical control I'm preparing to be flamed for this

You're entitled to your opinion. Despite it being wrong The amazing reviews and incredible worldwide sales figures will be all the evidence of it's awesomeness we'll need. The beta's multiplayer anyways, Blizzard games are generally very good stories told in a great way. I'm personally looking forward to that. I played it 3 years ago and it was fun. It's gotta be awesome now. One point though - You've played a BETA....beta's can change from the full product

My opinion is fact-- Design is old.. They won't want to change it too much from the original, else the Koreans will kill themselves and bomb Blizzard HQs! True it was a beta, but the reason for that is for multiplayer matchmaking, unit balanacing and server load tests.. Not fundimental gameplay changes Can't comment on the story based elements, obviously.. but I can't see the actual *gameplay* being that different from the multiplayer beta tests. Also, Starcraft isn't technically a PC exclusive.. it's PC *AND* Mac
