E3 will probably be my only reason to watch G4 since they killed what G4 with Star Trek (Star Trek f:censored:in' dead, b:censored:es! Get the motherf:censored: over it, all G:censored:damn ready F:censored:in' S:censored:!!!)
At least the majority of hype won't be "let's honor HALO2 and say f:censored: you to every other game" like last year's G-Fanboy (G-Phoria). I'm actually interested more in the progress of Okami. I'd love to play or even own this game. Anyone who think Okami is an ugly game is a fool. Judge the graphics for yourself here, courtesy of Gamespot: {
http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/adventure/okami/screenindex.html }. They say the game will be out in September 2006, which is a shame because I'd love to play it now. I thought the wolf was a female, because I kept reading that the okami (wolf) is actually Amaretsu in wolf form.
Last year, it was all about the next-gens. One next-gen unit has been out since E3, which is the XBOX360 of course. People still think it could have been too early to release the XBOX360. But it has the advantage of drawing first blood. I'm more interested on the progress of "Killing Day," "Killzone 2," and maybe some material. But my biggest highlight will be any progress report on Gran Turismo 5. Will it be a repeat of Vision Gran Turismo, or is this the best idea of what to expect maybe next year for GT5?
The Revolution WILL be televised. Whereas being unique was a good thing for people, some thought that the Revolution's remote control setup is horrible for uniqueness. I want to see how Nintendo has paced with this deal.
This should be another highly-interesting E3.
