I your opinion what do you think was game of the show at e3.  

I say mgs2, dmc, silent hill 2, jax and dexter, doa3, halo, oddworld, rouge squardon 2, luigi manson(even though i didn\'t think it looked that great),  ff 10, and shenmue 2.  What do you guys think?

Well if you mean gameS of show it\'s not a very difficult question. Now if you were referring to a single game then it\'s a very tough call. So I\'ll just divide it up by consoles.

I\'d say it has to be something that was playable on the showfloor because things will get a little crazy if you count all of the games present in video form.

Nintendo: Pikmin (yeah sue me)

Sony: Jak and Daxter: The Presomthing Something

X-Box: Munch\'s Big O (hehe) easily.

PC: Don\'t know. Looking at all the fine PC games just makes me depressed about my PC, I\'d rather avoid that feeling.

DC: Don\'t know. I\'d say Shenmue 2, but the playable stuff was mostly sports games, not my bag.

i wasnt at the show and havent seen everything from the show, but as far as im concerned, its Jax and Daxter

this has got to be the first show ever where MGS2 didnt have much hype behind it, gotta be because of the demo released with ZOE, took away a lot of all the expectation (not saying people are lessa excited, just not as desperate for info)

As far as the Nintendo side of things, I\'d say Raven Blade.

I liked Halo for MS, butI haven\'t looked too much into the PS2 to judge.

Sony: Jak & Daxter or MGS2

MS: Halo or DOA3

Nintnedo: Super Smash Bros. 2 (Now THAT looks fun) or Luigi\'s Mansion

Dreamcast: Shenmue2 or Headhunter

PC: Return to Castle Wolfenstein

Those are my votes.

I\'m voting Jak and Daxter for sony, it looks very impressive, definitely going to be a credit to the PS2 when it\'s finished, also FFX and WO:Fusion justbecause I\'m a huge fan

For the Nintendo, Luigi\'s mansion looked excellent, and thought I\'mm not a fan of the first, only good reviews have come of the showing of SSB2

Xbox had halo.... but not a great deal more that impressed me. Jet Grind radio looks to be shaping up nicely though
Probably the earliest flyswatters were nothing more than some sort of striking surface attached to the end of a long stick.

Headhunter was at e3?!?!!? yay!! I cant wait to see this game running on my tv :)

IMO, the game of the show should have to be playable, thus marking out nearly all of those choices above. Your guess is as good as mine. This is NO blowout like last years ass stomping courtesy of Sega.

HeadHunter WAS at E3... right? I could have sworn I saw some coverage of it on TechLive. Anyhow, if it wasn\'t at E3.. then it should have been, cause from all I\'ve seen and read it\'s going to be one hell of a game. 18 Wheeler Pro Trucker and Propeller Arena looked awesome too.

BTW: Did you see the movie of ToeJam & Earl 3? I really think they could have done a lot more with the Dreamcast\'s hardware, but the game still looks pretty sweet gameplay wise.

my favorite game announced at the show was Tenchu 3, its only 8% complete but IGN got to play it behind doors and said it was shaping up to be nice, more like Tenchu than Tenchu2

Errr... I saw/heard about more than 50 games I\'d buy w/o trying, so I couldn\'t narrow it down in any way. :)

I couldn\'t possibly judge fairly without actually being there and seeing all this stuff side by side

Sue me, I\'m a sucker for Mario and Lugi, so I am personally amazed by Lugi\'s Mansion... Oh yeah, and Jet Grind Set Future. It may not look that great yet, but I\'m positive it will be an excellent game.

My vote goes to Jak and Daxter !   This Game has an amazing potential !
He has the power of both worlds
Girl: What power… beyond my expectations?
AND IT\'S PERSONAL
Demon: No… the legendary Sparda!?
Dante: You\'re right, but I\'m his son Dante!

I\'ve been following the Nintendo stuff closest.  I feel that overall, Luigi will have the biggest impression mainstream.  Personally, however, I am most intrigued by Pikmin.
