I must be the only person not that excited about E3 so far

The 3DS looks brilliant and I can see why everyone is Hyped up about it, the games look amazing but most are games we have already played before which is something Nintendo are used to giving us. 3D movies have never appealed to me unless it’s in the Cinema let alone a small screen; I never even use my PSP/iphone to watch movies.

I guess I will have to play a game in 3D to understand the hype or potential but from what I have seen there really is nothing that's jumping out at me however I think Nintendo are doing a great job in selling their new console.

The new Zelda looks like something out of Tim Burton's Willy Wonka

Kinect well :fp: I want to feel like i am playing a game not waving my arms around. The wii was fun for a while but that got boring and I see the PS3 Move heading in the same direction.

Metal Gear Rising for me was a letdown.

The only thing I have seen that has remotely interested me is GT5. And I am sure The Last Guardian will raise my hopes for the remainder of E3.

Maybe I’m set in my ways

Hmm, maybe you're getting a little jaded. Have you considered taking a little time time away from gaming?

You're not the target market any more.

Sorry.

Don't worry Rubix, I'm sure there's plenty of booth babe pictures on the way.

No Rubix, you are excited about E3.

Nah, I've not been that fussed either. Didn't bother watching the Microsoft conference, (no 360,) or the Nintendo conference, (haven't touched my Wii months and my DS in even longer,) and the Sony conference didn't show a whole lot that thrilled me, as I'm not interested in move, or 3D for the time being. The few things that have really caught my eye have been a select few games, Motorostorm, Bulletstorm, Portalstorm 2, Gran Turistorm...

But three of those I've been interested in before E3, and the other, well, I'm sure it would have caught my interest had it been announced elsewhere, too.

Most importantly, where the HELL is Arkham Asylum 2?

I also do not have the E3 fever. I think I have become extremely jaded and apathetic towards gaming in general.

MGS: Rising looks good, but if it turns out to be a Ninja Gaiden slash 'em up and nothing more, then I'll be disappointed. Definitely needs more Snake.
Twisted Metal looks kinda....out-dated (but maybe that's the appeal, I was never into that series really)
GT5 is well, GT5. Looks pretty and I'll buy it eventually but I have no enthusiasm for it at all anymore.
New COD, new Halo, new Gears, new Dead Space, new Red Faction, - just sequel after sequel after sequel, NOTHING NEW!

Honestly, the only games I am remotely excited in the near future are Deus Ex 3 (and that's only because of the nostalgia trip I took back to the 1st game) and Arkham Asylum 2 (wherever/whenever that may be)

On the whole, meh.

Oh and the whole focus on Move and Kinetic etc - no thanks. I'm just simply not at all interested in either.

/old man rant over.

Ditto, not one game shown this week other than maybe MGS Rising has interested me.

The only games I plan to get in the next year are:

Deus Ex 3
Mass Effect 3
FIFA 11 or PES 2011
GT5

Ah well, looks like I'll have plenty of time for other things in my life :)
