Wish it could be Battlefront, but the railed AT-ATs, third person arena shooter style and automated tow cable thing just won't cut it. King's Quest comes up next since I really wasn't too interested in anything else.

A lot of my faves were games that arent even on PC. Horizon Zero Dawn on PS4, Uncharted 4 on PS4, Halo 5 on Xbox One.

Then we have Doom, Fallout 4, Shenmue 3 announcement, and Street Fighter 5 which will be on PC.

Mirror's Edge: Catalyst

Followed closely by Dishonored 2.

I'm not a big Fallout fan, but FO4 looks very interesting. I'll probably give it a chance.

Fallout 4 won the show for me. I also liked that what they've shown on stage was a good 90% unscripted, unlike the staged (how fitting) choreographed crap like other AAA studios generally do (Bethesda went there too especially during Oblivion's demonstrations back then). We saw Fallout 4's in-game crafting / building, character customization and its dynamic dialogue system.

The only thing I somewhat disliked is how often Todd Howard used the damn word "dynamic". How so dynamic this and how godly dynamic that is. The character facial traits during customization is dynamic, the dialogue is dynamic (yeah just walk away from someone in the middle of a conversation, that's dynamic alright), the game's WORLD is dynamic (oh excuse me there, that one sounds serious as heck), the crafting system is dynamic, and how you can dynamically pick up materials around as you explore to dynamically build dynamic houses for your dynamic bases and growing future towns and settlements. I swear, if I had been right there at E3 I would have asked for some of his time for a short interview, in which I would have asked him if the bugs and the crashes would be dynamic as well. Seriously, show us what a classic Bethesda-signed Fallout 3-flavored Fallout 4 dynamic CTD looks like and how much dynamic time it dynamically takes to happen after you first step out of Vault 111. I'd really like to see that one. Also show me when some random NPCs' head inexplicably starts to dislocate from the neck only to end up rotating clockwise on his own axis in an infinite dynamic loop. I'd also like to see what your character can actually do lest resorting on using the Console Commands to get around or eventually pass through some stupid NPCs dynamically blocking your way in a narrow passage.

Now, with this said, I have greatly enjoyed all Bethesda games overall so far (this isn't sarcasm despite what I wrote above). All they need are the usual major community-made fixes to be stable / playable. But once that part is done, their games truly shine (well, generally-speaking; their games aren't perfect, no games are). So as far as the games I've seen at E3 are concerned then yeah, Fallout 4 won in my book.

But I should add that Horizon: Zero Dawn was a very interesting surprise. However, it seems that it is only developed for the PS4 exclusively, which is too bad since I don't own one and don't plan to buy one, but objectively-speaking the game looks original, even though I do feel that there's a certain Tomb Raider vibe to it (from the demonstration shown anyway), but that's not a bad thing for me.

Total War: Warhammer and Battlefront.

I haven't forgiven them for Rome:TW (actually haven't even bought Attila yet), but I am hopeful that being able to break free from historical shackles will allow them to make something great.

Fallout 4 is a no brainer, but Ghost Recon makes me drool.

I was REALLY excited to see SW:B until I learned all the details about the game that it isn't.

Fallout 4, like said above, is the no-brainer.

I hope it is for PC too, I could only find PS4 footage.

No space combat, some vehicles on rails etc.

Also many people probably did not want a Battlefield game in a Star Wars skin which this looks to be from what I have seen.

I did want a Battlefield game in a Star Wars skin, and I don't feel that this is what we're getting. Too much third person focus, no squads (unless you count partners, which I don't), etc.

There is a first person mode and you can it seems ADS, but CoD is first person ADS too, and it's not Battlefield either.

E3? The show where overhyped AAA titles are showcased?

I saw nothing that took my fancy.

Mario Maker for me...I was pretty interested before, and even more so now.

Perhaps No Man Sky

Nothing else was too standout. Just more of the same. Excited for FO4, but really it is still nothing 'new'.

Nothing for me here. Only thing that got me excited in the whole E3 was the announcement for FF7's remake, and I'm a primarily PC gamer.

As far as games that I know I'll actually play very much of then it's down to Dishonored 2.
I probably won't play much of Fallout 4 until some good mods gets released. Doom 4, you can tell it will be very repetitive. No Man's Sky looks sounds great on paper but exploring will likely be long and tedious where it might provide hours to explore just one planet but you'll see the same things plus the cartoony graphics is a bit of a turn off for me.
Some of the other games shown or discussed won't be coming out this year anyway so not too interested until they are closer to being finished. I have big hopes for Cyberpunk 2077 but it could be years off if they don't end up canceling it first.

I'm more interested in playing Eve: Valkyrie on an Oculus Rift than anything else.
