As we talked about in our stupendously awesome podcast the other day, next month marks one of my favorite gaming times of the year: E3. It has seriously always been my goal to attend this one day, even if it suddenly turns lame and un-fun. PAX is as close as I’ve gotten to an event of this magnitude regarding video games, so hopefully one day I’ll be able to see the sacred halls of E3 as well.
E3 2010 promises to be a big year for the expo, what with all the Natal and Move stuff that Sony and Microsoft will no doubt be showing. It also makes you wonder if Nintendo’s packing something up its sleeve to prove that it is the dominant and forward thinker that it seems to be in terms of what the masses want this generation.
Honestly, I can’t wait to see what unfolds, which is why I’m superbly giddy about this awesome list of E3 games that IGN posted. There will be an unbelievable amount of games on display, though it seems that folks like Nintendo are being coy about what they’ll be showing off. Meanwhile, Sony’s bringing more games than I realized they would be. And no doubt Microsoft is hiding a few up its sleeve as well. I’m also noticing Valve’s absence…
Anyway, hit the jump to see the full list.

And there you have it. Which of these games are you most excited for?

I’m most excited for Spec Ops: The Line, looks nice with a deep storyline. And also MGS: Peace Walker was brought into my attention with the last video you guys showed us. But I can’t believe that they’re still milking some old cows like Lord of the Rings, WWE, Ben 10, etc. Overall, excited for this year’s E3: Not.
i was the same eddy, the first thing i did was scroll to the bottom and look for Valve. very disappointed, but maybe they will surprise us
The first two I checked were 2K and EA. I’m REALLY interested in Spec Ops. It looks like a good shooter from what I’ve seen and hopefully the story will be good too as they’ve hinted. I also want to see Dead Space 2 and MoH. I’m glad that EA are stepping up their game (d’oh! Accidental pun).
Valve will probably be hiding and have a secret booth that has Portal 2 in it.
^ Valve probably has a blue portal already waiting in the building, and they’ll just fire an orange one during the first day, to reveal a real portal gun?
Mafia II – Can’t f’ing wait.
Why no Deus Ex 3? Pssshhhh.
GT 5. Cool.
