New Games Confirmed at E3

Scouring the list of scheduled games for E3 is yielding some interesting titles that should be making an appearance. Right now, there are listings for Kid Icarus Wii, Doom 4, Alan Wake, and Half-Life Episode 3. Kid Icarus, game that hasn't really had a great deal of time in the limelight, with it's prequel comming out in 1986, Kid Icarus is sure to sell for the Wii. We also have a new DOom title, the 4th one in the making. Alan Wake, an Action Thriller title. Alan Wake has been in production since last generation, and is about a writer who's wife goes missing, gets insomnia, and then all hell ensues as he finds out that what he writes in his horror novel is comming true. Half Life 3 should also be a big hit with all of the hardcore fans, but I'm not too sure about newcomers to the series. They'll all just have to pick up the Orange Box and play the prequels. We knew there were already going to be some great titles showing up, like Little Big Planet and Gears of War 2, but these ones definitely bump the excitement up a notch. I hope that Half-Life listing means that they’re releasing it sooner, rather than later. E3 is already looking to be a pretty exciting time for gamers everywhere.
