Happy E3!

It's that time of year again! (Which is actually a bit earlier than last year, if I remember right.) E3 has come and gone, sadly, all too soon. I'm not going to fool around searching for stuff, so here's what I remember most.

Nintendo really threw down this year. They unveiled the 3DS, proving that there are more variations to the DS system than flavors at Baskin Robins. This one might be good though, with the 3D graphics. I don't know specifics, but supposedly it's 3D without the glasses, which may or may not work out for them. But more importantly, what do they preview with the 3DS? A new Kid Icarus! It's about time angel boy got some respect again. Another downside, though, is that the game looks like it's only going to be on the 3DS, not compatible with the older DS systems. I would love to play the game, but I'm not going to buy an entirely new system for it when I've got one remarkably similar that still works fine. I was also really excited about the new Zelda game. Sure, it looks pretty good (graphics could've been better) but I noticed a little lag on the Wii, which could majorly affect the game.

Probably what I'm most excited about is the Metal Gear Solid: Rising game. If you watch the trailer, you know what I'm talkin about. That watermelon didn't stand a chance. Secondly would be Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. A continuation to ACII (which had a total WTF ending), Ezio is now, unfortunately, old. Oldish. Actually not really that old. Vic Mignogna is 47 and he's still hot. Anyway, this looks like it'll be well worth the wait due to a new multiplayer mode. Female assassins! Power to the women! Although without X-Box Live (or PSN, whichever one you're on) the multiplayer would probably be a LOT harder to appreciate.
