I'm more interested in Wolfenstein than Doom. Could Doom 4 be better than Dead Space?

Some of those less known titles are interesting too...but look like they need polish (and maybe publisher help?).

Man Age of Conan for 360 has been taking forever...surely it must show up at E3?

2 - Man I love these articles. Always games I've never heard of! lol
That Darkest Days civil war one looks cool and my fingers are crossed for Halo Chronicles and Doom 4.

I know for a fact there's news about Section 8 at E3...

But I'd love news about AoC.

Me too...though some are pretty big titles.

1. I don't think MMOs will work on a console, so that may be why Age of Conan is missing

2. Perfect Dark Zero 2 would rule

3. Dead Space would probably kill any Doom 4

4. WTF happened to Halo Chronicles?

5. Maybe if MS had published some of those lesser known titles they'd have some more exclusives (they are PC and 360 only mostly anyway...)

6. Where is Forza 3...that should be on the list...though Gran Turismo is just as missing and needs to show at E3

@ Super

Yeah that Darkest Of Days looks promising...I had a look at the vid in the link.

@ Allegionary

Forza is going to show at E3...I'm sure MS will make it a priority, along with Halo ODST.

Not sure what happened with Halo Chronicles...

I dunno about Doom 4. They hyped Doom 3 so much and then I was bitterly disappointed when it finally came out after those years of development, I doubt I would be interested in Doom 4.

E3 will FAIL this year if Doom 4 is not announced/previewed/shown officially.

4.1 - Doom 4 would be cool
But I'm more interested in Rage. Hopefully it'll be playable on the floor so we can get some news on how it works instead of just (insanely) pretty screenshots.

I dont think Rage could ever be as popular or hyped as Doom 4 would be.

while going through these games I could see plenty of potential for the console, irrespective of platform. There's several others that have also gone MIA unfortunately. WHich is quite common with games these days.

SOme simply go into hybernation and pop back on the radar a few years later or simply fade away into the background.

BUt several of them could well be up for a mention at E3 this year, as many of the bookings we have with the various publishers could shed some light on them, we'll be sure to ask, that's for certain.

Never even heard of a few of those games :)

I do want an MMO on Xbox, but I'm not interested in one that has been out for ages and already has a community going. Give me a new MMO and I will happily subscribe.

Yeah APB looks interesting, but I'm specifically interested in MMORPG's. I played FFXI for a few months, but the community had already been going for years before I got into that one.

6.3 - @ Superfragilistic
Many gamers these days don't look past shooters or action games for some reason. If it's not a Gears Of Bloody War, Halo-bloody-booring-tastica, Starwars etc, they just think every other game is a shooter or adventure anyway.

Many of these games are excellent new IP's and warrant inclusion in every gamers library, or at least a 'decent' run through their machine (decent = 3-5 hours of gameplay) so they get to see and experience something outside their normal shooter experiences.

We NEED new IP's, but gamers just do NOT give them the flexability they (new IP's) require in order to move forward.

7 - I wonder what happened to Halo Chronicles?
It was the big thing of E3 a few years ago, I remember seeing interviews with Peter Jackson and Microsoft's PR pimping the hell out of it.

Then, it was just....gone.

I loved No One Lives Forever! I played the rather less than brilliant port to the PS2, but the concept was still a lot of fun. Good 'ol Cate Archer.

Was there supposed to be another one made?
