Mattes said the game, which will take more than 10 hours and less than 50 to beat, will be playable at E3.

If it is playable at E3 (which is in July), it should be playable at PAX. It may even be a more polished or longer
demo! Ubisoft is known to be a PAX regular so i am sure they will be there this year.

ctishman

Futhamuckin' Beyond Good and Evil 2.

Coldbrew

Honestly, since ArenaNet is based nearby in Bellevue, and always seem to do something big each year, I'm hoping for something new on Guild Wars 2, such as a beta announcement. But maybe it's just wishful thinking.

Other then that, I wouldn't mind seeing some Starcraft II, and of course Penny Arcade Adventures: Episode 2, since the first one was so great.

ASimPerson

Spore?

Raiden333

The main thing I care about seeing is Rainslick Precipice episode 2.

The_Reflection

even though it will be out two weeks later, The Force Unleashed. And probably whatever that secret nintendo game out for Christmas will be (i'm guessing Kid Icarus)

MasterHelios

Force unleashed seconded.
Also, maybe Fallout 3. That could be fun.
And Resistance 2, or Killzone 2.

I somehow doubt it would be ready in time, but if it is then HELL YES.

parabola

Spore. With the creature creater available in 20 days and it being released about a week after PAX I hope some playable version of it is there.

TNTrooper

I think I need to win another Warhammer Online beta key to actually get into the beta.

Coldbrew

I'm sure some bit of Spore will be shown at PAX, it's only a week before release so they probably won't mind showing some new things. That would be epic.
Resistance 2 would be cool to see, it's one of the few Playstation exclusive series' that's any good.

As far as a possible new something from Nintendo, I would hope for something like a new Starfox or F-Zero, or maybe (finally) the next gen Wii, even though something like that would probably be held for E3, still...

s7arbuck

spore
gears 2
force uncleahed
fable 2
duke nukem?
viva pinata
skate 2
pop
final fantasy XIII
fracture?
starcraft 2
halo wars
(new ip from bungie entered her)
(i love rock band to death, i ahve EVERY song song downloaded) but guitar hero 4? the drums look kinda cool, "pax ticket=36 dollars, buying a drink as you wait in line for rock band for 1 hour so your friends can jump in last second=5 dollars, playing on stage foo fighters as your friend fails bass on medium=priceless"
prototype
the MMOFPS from the creaters of crackdown
too human (lol)
mercenaries 2
bioshock 2?
lego batman
afro samurai
mirror's edge

I would have listed Spore and Star Wars: Force Unleashed but I was thinking that August is the 9th month of the year.

Woops.o_O

majin23x

My biggest ones are SC2 and hopefully Blizz will have something there for WotLK.

Also, for analog games:
Monsterpocalypse
WoW minis
DnD 4e.

Guitar Hero 3 wasn't playable last year, so I'm guessing GH4 won't be playable.

vrempire

Wish that I can see Resident Evil at the PAX08.
The scariness still haunt me hehe

collinc

Duke Nukem Forever. I expect a playable demo....

Coldbrew

I would be surprised to even hear a word about that game at PAX08, but anything on it would be great, for sure.

Something on Crysis 2 would be cool though, or Prey 2.

Riggz13

I hope to see a follow up to the best demo I played at PAX last year. John Deere: Harvest in the Heartland

strangemusic

I'm crossing my fingers for Fallout 3 more than anything, but OTRSPOD EP2 is going to be highly cherished.

Oh, and to hell with co-operative music reproduction gaming coming out of the ears of all developers! If I see another unnecessary plastic drum kit, I'm going to cry.

MR.T

So would the point of a 2 girls 1 cup game be to not vomit? o_O

Liger

I am sooooo looking forward to Fable 2. Not sure how I feel about the pet dog yet. I hear you can get him to jump off cliffs.

MasterHelios

Then it would be the hardest game ever made.

But it would be cool to see a vomit-sensor peripheral. Think of the possibilities!

OHHH! You could use the Wii Balance Board to measure the amount of substance you produce!!

Patent pending, patent pending, patent pending...

Coldbrew

I'm now hoping to see some Guitar Hero: Metallica, since that was just announced. Metallica's songs are just so fun to play. XD
They should have a "demo" setup on some little stage right next to Guitar Hero: World Tour (IV)
That would be sweet

I'm betting that might not happen. I know that PA and Harmonix have been tight, hence how they got Rock Band before it was out. So I would doubt that Guitar Hero will be there. And unless I see Activision on the list of sponsors or on the list of people on the expo floor, I'm going to stick with that assumption.

TwiztidK

Bioshock PS3, Fallout 3 & WipeOut HD would be insane.

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.

Since Konami is making rock revolution they should just add beatmania and keyboardmania attachments onto that.

Are you going to be a downloadable character in the game? You are the CCST Wheelman after all.

Qs23

dang it... I hoped saying it would have made it true.

Moe Fwacky

We'd better get on the horn with Midway.
