Pretty much what it says in the title; these are some of the best games shown on E3 that I wanna keep a close eye on.
The order is based solely on the content shown at E3 and may not be indicative at my final opinion of the games... at all.

Impactful combat, apparently good AI companion, non-regenerating health, stealth options, scarce resources and an overall survival-ish atmosphere make this my favourite E3 2012 game.
It's XCOM (the strategy game!) and Firaxis. Enough said.
The lead designer from the original Deus Ex and Viktor Antonov team up for this game developed by the studio that brought us Arx Fatalis. I'm looking forward to employ some proper old-school stealth and also some of that nice first person melee combat that Arkane seems to like so much. I really hope the game lives up to my expectations of it.
The demo shown was way too action oriented for what I want from a Tomb Raider game (which is lots of climbing, exploration and environmental puzzles), but it was still good, so I'm very much looking forward to this one.
Perhaps the biggest surprise I've seen on this E3. I had heard that Divinity was going back to its roots, but I never expected to see something that cool, namely the way the combat plays out and how tactics are actually important. The co-op stuff also looks pretty cool and well... there's loot, lots of loot xD
I never saw this one coming and I had no idea what I was about to watch when I loaded up the video here on GB. I've a lot of questions about what this game really plays like in the grand scheme of things, but let's just say that I'm very curious about it. And I guess that yeah, it looks gorgeous.
The third person GTA games have never interested me, but for whatever reason, this one looks pretty cool. It might just be cause it reminds me of the "Infernal Affairs" movie trilogy, but the hell, I'm ready for it ^^
Probably the best looking game on this E3 alongside Watch Dogs, judging from the little I was able to see. The gameplay doesn't look all that exciting (or new!), but it still looks like a breath of fresh air in the Star Wars universe. It may not be the Republic Commando sequel I'm still craving for, but it's probably the closest I'll ever get at this point...
Not much was shown (at least that I was able to see), but it's Aliens, so I'm biased here. Anyway, all I really want from this game is a marine campaign that's as good as the one seen on AvP2-- if they accomplish that, then this will be an amazing game. If not... it's probably best to stay clear of me around that period :P
The single player demo (couldn't care less about the co-op for this one, to be honest) seems to show something of a huge improvement over that of Far Cry 2-- Far Cry 3 seems to have a lot more crazy stuff going on and for me personally that should always be an integral part of any Far Cry experience.
