Maybe not a ton of games at E3 this year but there's still been a load of videos, screenshots, previews etc to pour over. Any games (don't have to be newly announced) that you think have slipped through the net on GRcade/got buried in a 50 page thread and you'd like to highlight. They can be retail games, downloadable games or even just a feature or game mode which may improve that genre.

Try and not just post the name of the game. Provide a video/youtube link or link to a preview along with a short description of the game and platforms. I'll kick it off with:-

Happy Town
XBLA
15 v 15 Fat Princess style game

Oh come on. That's not hidden at all: it was one of Nintendo's biggest announcements. That's like sticking Watch Dogs in here.

To be fair, it wasn't at their conference.

If people didn't watch the GTTV thing straight after, they probably wouldn't even know about it. :lol:

That's true and I also didn't know what Watch Dogs was until I looked it up after seeing a lot of posts about it.

Yes Staydead, and then it spread through all the news sites. It's not a hidden game

But it's now on every news site out there, billed as one of Nintendo's key games. It's huge news and not hidden in any sense whatsoever.

EDIT: Skippy knows what's happenin'

Demon's Score

It's basically an on-rails shooter that plays like Ouendan, coming to iOS and Android. Sounds pretty good to me.

EDIT: Found a video, looks too easy though..

I remember Snapshot from years back, looking forward to finally play it. Guess it's not coming out on the PC as an indie game any more then? :(

I'm hoping Half Life 3 was so well hidden no one noticed and it's just about to get released.

Dishonoured, I have never even heard of this game before someone mentioned it. Looks promising, I loved thief.
