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.

    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.

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

    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...

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
