Let me know how Crackdown 2 since I might pre-order... you know what, just tell me how everything else is too. Preferably in nicely formatted paragraphs in PDF form with accompanying pictures on expensive stationary so that I may read it comfortable while I lounge on my leather recliner in a red velvet bathrobe, slippers on, hound at my feet, and a cackling fireplace behind me as I sip my brandy and smoke my pipe.
Ok, I have a new game that I think is the highlight of E3: Metal Gear Solid: Rising. Man, that game is going to be awesome. I love the new precision cutting, and the way you can strategically cut the environment (as demonstrated in the video). Raiden's gone from being the biggest wuss in the series (although I didn't think he was THAT bad in MGS2) to being possibly the biggest bada__ in the series (Snake's hard to top though). Other than that, I'm really looking forward to Gears 3, Dead Rising 2, Crackdown 2, Mortal Kombat, and a few of Square's new linup. Oh, did they say anything about Resident Evil Portable? I know they announced a Resident Evil game for the PSP a while back, but I havn't heard anything since.
Resident Evil: Revelations was announced on the 3DS. Apart from that, I don't think I saw anything else RE related.
Yeah, that's completely different. They announced Resident Evil Portable would be coming to the PSP this year during E3 2009.
And heres my recap of the show! Ill talk about each of the games above. Gears 3- not playable by peeps, Epic didnt even have a booth, only a private room COD- Not playable, not even an Activision booth..... Bulletstorm- Was super sick, had to wait an hour to get into this room with six TVs and played for like ten minutes, but this one looks sick 3DS- too fat of a line for me Dead Rising 2- similar to the first one, just more of the same, but thats a good thing Rage- nothing Dead Space 2- Didnt get a chance Crackdown 2- awesome, but it pissed me off because the controls were inverted and you couldnt switch them back Brink- only for the press (which Im not) Mortal Kombat- Longest line of the day, hell no I aint goin through that Ghost Recon- Tiny hidden room, not even sure if you could get in no Arkham Asylum 2 Shank was amazing, Battleblock theater wasnt there but i have played it before (also amazing), and Monday night Combat was fun as hell Some things I played that werent above: Medal of Honor (pretty good, plays like battlefield, plus they were handing out beta invites), Splatterhouse (insane), EA MMA was pretty cool, NFS Hot Pursuit was also tight.... idk what else I played Oh, and I saved the best for last. Favorite game of the show is undoubtedly Marvel vs Capcom 3. I love fighting games, especially MvC, and this one is top ****in notch. If you are the slightest fan of fighting games, you should look into that one. It is the first game that I am considering getting an arcade stick for.
MvC3 is the game I'm most interested in this E3. Have you played Tatsunoko vs. Capcom? As a TvC player myself, looking at the gameplay videos, it looks like they just took the TvC engine and tweaked it a bit. I mean, I could probably pick up a controller and use Ryu just like I would in TvC. Oh, and the extended MvC3 trailer just looks epic.

Thanks for the info, even though I wasn't asking for those. Btw, how do you get into E3? I heard from a friend that it was invite only, but then again, he may be wrong. I've always wanted to go, but I don't think I can get any way to cross the country just to go to E3.
