Please to be showing BF3, Karkand totally destroyed to show Frostbite 2's theoretical limits + theater mode. PLEASE TO BE.

Only reason I'm waiting for EA: BF3. >_<
 

Tucah

you speak so well
ME3 will be nice, can't wait to see Insomniac's new project and I pray for a TOR release date.

Mirror's Edge 2 is all I want from this.

Not going to happen. But if it does and they show it off in the middle of BF3, BEST EA E3 CONFERENCE EVER.

Amazing work on this thread, Nirolak, seriously.

Look forward to Mass Effect 3 and maybe the KOTOR game, but EA's line up isn't that exciting for me. Hopefully there will be something new announced.
 
What does E3 Bear think of this?

I'm hoping it'll be their big surprise...I can't think of any other EA game that would be genuinely surprising.

Mad hype for BF3 and IG new game.

BF3 and it's engine capability. Again: I want to see total leveled... level/map, EA/DICE. MAKE IT HAPPEN AND SHUT EVERYONE UP.

Then again: Showing ANT with Mirror's Edge's design would be pretty good. Add in destruction that isn't PhysX and ME2 would be a total OMG.

Dead Space 3

Announce it and blow my mind.


I don't want DS3 for some reason, not for another year, and with a completely different level of graphics. It's too damn soon imo, don't milk my deadspace.

IIRC, last year's conference was pretty boring right? Guess we'll have to suffer through Sims and EA sports to get the BF3 and ME3 demos.

Last years EA conference was very good until they got to the exercise stuff. This years conference looks like it'll be even btter.

Watching it mostly for ME3 and anything new about Origin.
There will be exclusive videos available on Origin following the press conference. BF3, ME3, SWTOR and others.

EA's usually the most consistently solid, so I'm looking forward to this. It'll be better than MS' crap just by default. Expecting more FIFA/Madden/NCAA and I'll be happy with that.
 

Stop It

Perfectly able to grasp the inherent value of the fishing game.
Looking forward to the BF3 stuff (Have the game on pre-order already), and hoping that SSX really is coming to PC.

In fact, with the Origin store launching last week, I hope that EA put a bit of focus on PC, especially as Microsoft decided to ignore the platform, AGAIN.
