I'm not going to try and tread on opinions, but I just don't get why Zelda Wii U is such a darling for so many people. I understand the sheer excitement of finally getting some decent information, but I just couldn't rank it high personally due to the lack of any real gameplay information.

Anyway I'll make a list later, puking guts out bye
 
1. Bloodborne
2. Everybody's Gone to the Rapture
3. No Man's Sky
4. Assassin's Creed Unity
5. The Witcher 3
6. GTAV Remaster
7. Dragon Age Inquistion
8. Destiny (alpha sold me on it)
9. Crackdown
EDIT
10. Uncharted 4
(I guess)

Struggling to think of any others...

1: No mans Sky
Between the gameplay and interviews this remains my most awe inspiring game at E3.Aan infinite amount of planet sized planets is some sort of amazing that I can't even put into words.

2: TC Rainbow Six Siege
This game thoroughly blew me away. I'm not sure if the final product can live up but in it's current form it looks like the next gen tactical mutiplayer game we deserve.

3: The Witcher 3
Continues to impress greatly. SP game of my dreams.

4: Evolve

Nintendo really rocked it this year.
 
1. No Man's sky
2. Zelda U
3. Splatoon
4. Batman: Arkham Knight
5. Splatoon
6. Captain Toad
7. Yoshi's Yarn
8. Halo: Collection
9. Battlefield: Hardline
10. The Division

Notice how all these games are gameplay "ready". No CG, pre-rendered bullshit will make list. That goes for Bloodborne as well.

Despite us having seen Bloodborne being played and all the leaks involving gameplay?

Rightio!

Just like I put Scalebound in my own list. As OP states, this is the "e3" thread, you just make a list with the stuff that made you giddy with excitement, no matter how little we know of it, as long as it has any "e3 presence" it's okay. That's the beauty of it :D

Left out games that didn't have INTENTIONAL gameplay shown (sorry Bloodborne)
 

John Harker

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
I suppose I might be a little bias simply because I was at the show, and I was at the press conferences, and there was a very controlled-way that I saw everything... and cause of the traveling, limited amount of online news to see the things I've missed.

So, I'll throw out some things that kind of made me feel something when I saw them. Probably not a 'hard and fast' order my list.

1. The Legend of Zelda Wii U
2. Tom Clancy's The Division
3. The Witcher 3
4. Bloodborne
5. Assassin's Creed Unity
6. Super Smash Bros For Wii U
7. Sunset Overdrive
8. Dragon Age Inquisition

10. No Man's Sky

Honorary Mentions:
XX. Splatoon
XX. Rise of The Tomb Raider
XX. Yoshi's Wooly World
XX. Rainbow Six: Siege
XX. Far Cry 4

Also shout out to that Dead Rising 3 DLC that I can never get the whole name right off my head haha!

I really wanted From Software's new title to be #1, which was my expectation, but I need to see more of Bloodborne first. At first look, the gore the guns, and deep goth seemed a little... distracting. But if it's half as good as Dark Souls 2 or any of the previous ones, it'll be my GOTY when it comes out anwyay.

I've probably forgotten a couple. Bloodborne would probably be top if we had gotten proper gameplay footage (off-screen doesn't count). Batman wasn't on my list at all until that demo happened at Sony's conference, blew me away. Honourable mentions include ABZU, Ori, Halo Collection...

I also think that for games like Uncharted or Zelda, the fans have already a pretty clear picture in their minds of how the game will play like.
 
  1. The Legend of Zelda for Wii U
  2. Splatoon for Wii U
  3. Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS
  4. Bloodborne for PS4
  5. Destiny for PS4
  6. Xenoblade Chronicles X for Wii U
  7. Yoshi's Woolly World for Wii U
  8. Bayonetta 2 for Wii U
  9. Mario Maker for Wii U
  10. Kirby and the Rainbow Curse for Wii U

Top 3 Explanation:

Zelda: Open-world and beautiful. I don't know if I could ask for any more.
Splatoon: Nintendo's take at the TPS genre. Their first big new IP in a while. Looks fun and unique.
Smash: Smash... what else to say? The Miis look like really cool fighters and Palutena is in. The amiibo functionality also looks cool.

1. Zelda Wii U (not hyrule warriors) (it's been years since I've felt like i'm daydreaming about the gameplay/story possibilities of a short video game clip. I can't wait.)

2. Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS (i can see myself putting 9000 hours in this, especially now that we'll have a portable version)

3. Uncharted 4 (looks incredible.)

4. Splatoon (Interesting new take on a TPS - New IP from nintendo too!)


Just like I put Scalebound in my own list. As OP states, this is the "e3" thread, you just make a list with the stuff that made you giddy with excitement, no matter how little we know of it, as long as it has any "e3 presence" it's okay. That's the beauty of it :D

Yes! It almost feels like the old E3's from like the late 90's. I use to get really excited with gaming news back then.

I will never be able to choose only 10 games and from what I saw so far looks like Zelda U will win.

Anyway a game that is pretty awesome is Evolve. It's really fun and brings something pretty cool to the MP experience.

I thought Sunset Overdrive wasn't that fun, but I was wrong, it's really fun (I mean, this game+Crackdown 3+Spencer will (maybe) make me buy an Xbone!).

Also another game that I will give more chances to is Dragon Age Inquisition. I loved the first one, didn't like the second chapter and it looks like the third will be a good mix between them.
Destiny it's turned better than I thought (even if this game will not bring anything so new).
Bloodborne is just incredible too see.
Arena of Faith is the best moba I've played so far.
Alien isolation is just incredible.

Sorry, I've gone off topic!
