I need pointers, cause that's a lotta movies to wade through!
What was your top pick (Wether you were at E3, or just viewed movies from E3)?

Dreamfall is the one I'm most looking forward to.
FEAR would be my top FPS that I'm looking forward to, followed by Battlefield 2. The other unreal engine/next gen stuff is going to be a long ways off.
Rise of Legends looked decent enough from the demonstration I saw. I think Winter Assault is the expansion I'm most looking forward to, though. Although I did see some turn based game on the floor that seemed interesting, I don't remember much at all of it.

Game Trailers and Gamespot both have videos of Oblivion, and I'm sure plenty of other sites do too.

I didn't get to see a lot, but the two that knocked my socks off were Heroes of Might and Magic V and Parkan 2.

Rise of Legends: Rise of Nations 2 looked awesome, I was drooling over that game. Hellgate was nice as well.

I downloaded 3GB of trailers this morning, and am sorting through them now. Some that have caught my attention:
~Age of Empires 3 - looks like similar gameplay to the originals (which is a good thing - they were fantastic games) with some refinements and a fantastic engine.
~Commandos: Strike Force - an FPS based on the Commandos series, it looks like a cross between Medal of Honor and a WWII Splinter Cell. If the gameplay can keep up with the potential of the concept, this one could be great.
~UT2K7 - Oh, hell yes. Improved engine, a really solid foundation to build on, and the new Conquest mode sounds fantastic, sort of a Battlefield Unreal sort of thing.
~Hellgate: London - Holy crap, if the gameplay can live up to the kind of action shown in the trailer, this could be an amazing game.
~Gothic 3 - most of the bad press ignores the fact that what is presented is a pre-alpha. I've played enough alphas to know that what you see isn't anything more than a framework around which the final game is built, and the E3 version is even earlier than that. Taking that into account, it looks fantastic - great engine, great animation, and the developer has put out two fantastic games in a row, enough to give me complete confidence that once the framework is filled out, this will be worth the effort.
~Rise of Legends - I never played Rise of Nations, but the whole look and style of this thing makes me think it will be something original.
Biggest disappointment:
~Ghost Recon 3 - from military simulation to Republic Commando - go UbiSoft!

I haven't been through too many of the PC games yet but the gameplay footage of FEAR still has me hyped for that one. The official movie from E3 wasn't that great so grab the 4 gameplay movies if you can off of Gamespot.
Also checkout the MP interview, it has some great game footage in it.

This is a general gaming discussion topic, so I'm moving it there now. If yo7u wish to discuss any of these games individually, this is the forum for that.

Oblivion ruled the show - it received universal praise. Hellgate made more of an impact I expected.
