I have lots of stuff still to write and upload about E3, but I’m exhausted. Nothing tires you out like airports and airplanes.<\/p>\n
A few little tidbits:<\/p>\n
– Empire: Total War<\/em> will probably consume me when it comes out. We only got to see the sea battles in action, but from the rest of the description, this engine will make a lot of things possible that weren’t before.<\/p>\n – Space Siege<\/em> is a surprise. It looks like a relatively light sci-fi RPG, and could be a lot of fun.<\/p>\n – Dragon Age<\/em> is Baldur’s Gate<\/em> 2008. I’m not yet sure if this is a good thing.<\/p>\n – Storm Rise<\/em> is a console RTS with a different approach than Halo Wars<\/em>, which demonstrates just how much room there is to be creative with console controllers once you realize that you need to break out of the mouse\/hotkey module that rules PC RTS.<\/p>\n – Eidos says that the word “skimpy” is no longer used by Tomb Raider<\/em> developers. The cut of Lara’s wetsuit says otherwise.<\/p>\n – Neither Gamecock nor Activision Blizzard are ESA members, so they weren’t at E3. But they were near E3. So come on guys, pick a side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have lots of stuff still to write and upload about E3, but I’m exhausted.
