wait for dead island if you want an open world zombie game

One of my best friends is a writer for a video game website who got to go, I'm terribly jealous of her. Looking forward to live updates.

I know it's cool to hate it and all, but I can't wait for the new Halo trilogy. The Halo 1 remake coming out in November looks great, too.

I might get the Halo 1 remake. [expletive] Halo 4, and [expletive] MW3


btw, anybody else excited about Operation Flashpoint Red River that's coming out tomorrow?

Boo. Nintendo is on at E3 right now, but is stalling on Project Cafe details.

Conference is over but nothing really groundbreaking that the rumors from the past few weeks didn't say. Hope developers can actually make good use of that new controller because I doubt it'll be cheap.

it looks interesting. That controller is huge, though. Seems like it would cause fatigue with extended play and I can't imagine kids holding it.

And how much will each controller cost? What if Timmy throws his $150 dollar controller and breaks it? What if he wants to play with one of his friends and mom and pop have to plop down another huge sum of money for another of those controllers? Or will the games just be designed so that only one player ever has that controller and the rest have to use Wiimotes? That'll lead to some fun arguments.

I'm interested to see actual games played on it, but it'll be a while.

And that's another awful name.
