Quickie: E3 2007


With gamings FA cup final just a mere 10 days away, I thought it would be nice to include a countdown (see right) and my opinions on what we (and indeed, I) should be looking out for. But first, a little history:

The Electronic Entertainment Expo, commonly known as E3, is an annual trade show for the computer and video games industry presented by the Entertainment Software Association. It is only open to game industry professionals, journalists, and guests of exhibitors, such as celebrities. As of 2007, E3 will be invitation-only, leaning that instead of around 60,000 people at E3 there will only be 5,000. The reason for this change is to allow for a more intimate atmosphere where business will be emphasized. A separate conference called Entertainment for All Expo has been created to accommodate the public demand for a major, annual video game event.

Over the next week and a bit I'll have a muse at the top 5 (ish) games that I'm looking foward to this year.
For a current list of games currently confirmed to be showing at this years E3 go here.
