Hmm.. Of those 20 games, I know of about 6 of them, the rest I've ever never heard of, or don't like.

[recover 2]

RA3 and Fallout 3 are on my list.

The rest I don't care about.

 

Edit: A bit surprised that StarCraft 2 isn't on the list, maybe it's because there's no launch date set.

Your right, that is surprising

 

Perhaps Blizzard aren't showing StarCraft 2 at E3 this year. And since its not on GameSpot's list they might as well cancel the game then

Good taste, man!

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Too many ****ing sequels! I think my head is going to explode from all of the damn sequels. Except RA3 of course.

[Sonic 296]

Only 2 games on that list capture my interest. RA3 and FarCry 2.

[Gben 20]

Your right, that is surprising

 

Well I *must* be stupid. I can't find the list at gamespot just at yahoo, I was looking for the comments about games they are not anticipating... like SC2.

 

Weird indeed.

 

Fallout is possibly the only other game I might actually give money away to play, but there's a bunch of good titles in there.

Blizzard is just tight lipped about release dates and features, and usually, they have demos and such at BlizzCon. Perhaps they don't expect SC2 to be out this year... wouldn't surprise me one bit.

SC2 does not need to be at E3 because there's Blizzcon.

It would be if E3 was the huge expo it was a couple of years ago.
