Games: The E3 Thread

[Ryllharu]

It's a little bit of a letdown that a lot the AAA titles that everyone is talking about aren't coming out until 2010. There were some titles that caught my eye that are coming out sooner but didn't get the same coverage.

Muramasa: The Demon Blade (Wii) looks amazing. We saw it last year as little more than a promo, but it's finally coming out here. It looks like VanillaWare is dumping any use of waggle (thankfully) and by the sounds of it, it's going to be challenging as action/rpg/platformers go. I loved Odin Sphere, so I'll be picking this one up for sure. Japanese mythology following up Nordic Opera is just icing on the cake.

Wet (PS3/360) should be a incredibly cheesy shoot-em-up published by Bethesda. It looks like sort of like a cross between the good parts of Tomb Raider and Bloodrayne combat with a healthy dose of cheesy toppings.
