Hell yeah. A new Donkey Kong Country...by Retro Studios! That's all I needed to hear.

Still disappointed for no Star Fox Wii announcement, but at least I know Platinum Games would like to do it. Could be awhile though.

Hey, they announced it for the 3ds though..

Hunted: The Demon's Forge

A new Dungeon crawler by Bethesdia studios.

Unlike most dungeon crawlers, co-op gameplay is a big part of what Bethesda is hoping will differentiate Hunted from the pack. Players can do things like use regeneration vials from a distance to heal their partner and certain puzzles require Caddock and Elara to use their specialized powers in order to progress. In one instance Elara had to shoot fire arrows to burn down a wall blocking Caddock's way. It's this simple co-op gameplay that will break up the constant barrage of bad guys and hopefully provide enough variety to keep the game feeling fresh.

Kingdom Hearts 3ds game...>

Here at E3 2010 there's like a hojillion 3DS titles. Most of them are new titles, though a few seem to be 3D ports of older games. On the third party side, Square Enix was showing off a video for Kingdom Hearts 3D. Sora's back, beyotches!

So what shooter is everyone expecting the most out off this year?

Medal of Honor

Crysis

MK preview from the show floor.

Welcome back to the golden age of Mortal Kombat. Taking its cues from the first three classic Mortal Kombat games, the new title is at once a homage to the earliest games in the series, but also progressive in just the right places. The team listened to what the fans were asking for, in short, and is set to deliver a memorable new entry.

Deadspace 2 preview

At least part of Dead Space 2 takes place on The Sprawl, a city located on a moon off Saturn. Despite the seemingly gloomy ending of the original Dead Space, the sequel puts you once again in the high-tech suit of engineer and up-and-coming badass Isaac Clarke. It's unclear what Isaac is doing in the Sprawl, but things in the city have gone to hell and there are necromorphs everywhere. Worse news for Isaac: developer Visceral Games is upping the gruesome kills. Not just for how you dismember necromorphs, but in how they dismember Isaac.

MOH and Crysis 2 are tied for me...

MOH for me, with C2 a close second. I haven't been a big fan of COD since the first MW.

Hey, they announced it for the 3ds though..

I wanted a new Starfox on the Wii, not a remake of a remake on the 3ds.

crysis 2 preview

EA and Crytek actually showed us Crysis 2 a few months ago, if you'll recall, where they debuted its urban relocation to New York, along with its streamlined nano-suit options. Perhaps most surprisingly, Crytek also chose to show press the game on the Xbox 360 rather than PC. At this year's E3, Crytek has the same demo on hand, but press are finally getting the chance to play the game, and also to see its just announced debut in 3D.

After spending some time playing Crysis 2, the most striking difference from the first game is the overwhelming verticality on display. Where the first game largely involved large horizontal spaces in which to engage enemies with the nano-suit's various abilities, Crysis 2 appears to be predicated on death from above – whether you're dishing it out or avoiding it.

I think its interesting how DICE will be handeling the multiplayer aspect of MOH but not the single player. They will have a lot on their plate with the Bad Company expansion and MOH.

It's also interesting to see that Respawn wont be working on either but it was a little too far along for that.

What everyone here has been waiting for. If you haven't seen this yet, take a look.

MOH Multiplayer details from E3.

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/109/1097377p1.html

Though EALA is doing the single-player for Medal of Honor, it's DICE (makers of Battlefield: Bad Company 2) handling the multiplayer component. While the expectation may be for DICE to offer up Battlefield's multiplayer with a different coat of paint, that's not the case at all. Medal of Honor's multiplayer certainly has elements of DICE's design heritage, but it's more about ground infantry combat. The battles, 12-on-12 online matches featuring special forces versus insurgents, are intense and brutal. You die quickly thanks to "faster bullets" as DICE describes it, and a lack of health packs. This is war. Good luck surviving.
