    Rock Band 2 is supposed to come out at the end of this year right? So I'm hoping to get a chance to see if they've changed the instruments after the announcement of GH4 and play them of course.

    Here's hoping for Keyboard Hero :D

    I think you mean Keytar Hero! :P

    They need to release Deliverance Hero with washboard, jug, and gut bucket.

    Yeah, from what the monthly sales numbers are saying, if you're not Nintendo, good luck selling a Wii game to even your own mother.

    Hrm I was hoping that 38 Studios would finally spill some details about the MMO they're working on. I'm dying to see what Todd Macfarlane's artwork looks like translated to a game.

    That is interesting, more so because whatever medium his artwork has already tried to translate to, I have never really found it appealing. Hopefully it will this time and into an MMO.

    Considering that part appeal of the game is how linked it is with the original material I'm going to say no, in fact that's probably the attitude they want people to have

    God of War III will reportedly be at E3.

    We should all hope that it will also be at PAX.

    I would love to have a Spore Demo/ Possible Spore giveaway??? at PAX this year. Yes I know Spore doesn't come out until about 3 weeks after PAX, but those 3 weeks are generally used to fix really, really, really minor bugs, and usually one really, really, really big bug. I would be fine with my planets turning pink and green (minor) and having it explode on me when I start the game (major).

    Outside of that, I would like to have some Battlefield: Bad Company there. Its fun. Like, a bunch of fun.

    IGN has a list of games that are confirmed to be at E3. So, I think there is a good chance that
    most of the popular titles on their E3 list may also be at PAX!

    IGN's E3 Confirmed Game List

    Here are the more "popular" titles from IGN's list:


    Spore (PC)
    Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts (X360)

    I have always been excited about spore, but this is the first I have heard anything about Banjo-Kazooie. I couldn't be any more excited. I have been playing those forever, and I can't wait for the next one.

    Fable 2.
    Resident Evil 5.
    And Guild Wars 2 - I know it's ridiculously soon for anything tangible on this one, but just a little bit of teaser info would be nice. :rotate:

    I'm not sure they said GW2 would be released in '08, but they did say they would start open beta. So, knowing ArenaNet and what they usually do at PAX each year, I expect some sort of beta key giveaway. NCSoft gave away beta keys for Tabula Rasa last year (that's why im a subscriber) so it could happen again.

    So ArenaNet/NCSoft better be showing off Guild Wars 2, and Blizzard better be showing off Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3. That will satisfy me.
