A next-gen game in every sense, Watch Dogs stole the whole show with its surprise announcement, boundless detail, smooth combat and, of course, those jaw-dropping graphics.
ACIII looks better with each demo, with ultra-slick traversal and climbing, crisp graphics, and (holy shit!) naval battles. Game of the Year contender, no doubt.
No zombies in the demo, sure, but The Last of Us is such a welcome departure from Nathan Drake's overly-orchestrated adventures.
Halo 4 looks big, bold, and beautiful. Considering how just about every other shooter on the floor is modern-day themed, it stands out quite well, too. This is 343's moment.
The first Wii U title that seems worthwhile, with gorgeous visuals and a neat implementation of the Wii U controller.
Wasn't THAT on board with Criterion's last effort, but Most Wanted is definitely in their wheelhouse. It's the best Need for Speed game ever, so if this re-imagining has anything along the lines of Razor Callahan, I'm sold. Completely sold.
Tomb Raider just rings truer than Uncharted, and the direction of Lara Croft's latest outing actually does seem edgy and progressive, rather than merely trying to be those two things.
If their presentation was any indication, the humor in this South Park offering is spot-on, and at long last a decent representation of the classic animated series.
