    What are you most excited about from E3?

    Now that the E3 conference is over with... I wanted to sum up some of the stuff that I thought was either very cool or innovative.

    First off, Microsoft.

    Being a 360 owner I was very excited to see what Microsoft had in store for us this year, and I think they didn't disappoint. Here's a list of what I liked:

    1. Facebook, Twitter comes to XBL. I will say that I'm more excited about Facebook then I am about Twitter (who's going to tweet from their xbox?). The idea of leveraging my already large number of facebook friends and finding out automatically which ones have gamertags would be very cool.

    2. Halo: Reach, and Halo: ODST. First, they showed a cool trailer for Halo:Reach. Its good to know that Bungie is creating another Halo game, and hopefully this one will be just as cool as the trilogy.




    3. LastFM coming to XBL. This is a cool radio service similar to Pandora. I'm glad there'll be an easy way to get some music on my XBox 360 now.

    4. New FFXIII trailer. Am I the only one who thinks this is completely awesome? I think it may be enough to turn me into a Final Fantasy fanboy again. A target of Q1 2010 is being made.



    Second, Nintendo had a few big announcements of their own.

    1. New Mario Galaxy game (Mario Galaxy 2). I LOVED the first one, as I thought it had some really innovative gameplay. The new game is going to be set in the same universe but with 90% new content. Check out this gameplay video:



    2. Metriod: Other M. Metroid is going to retrun to is 2-D roots with a new side scroller for the Wii. Check out the info so far here.

    3. New "The New Super Mario Bros. Wii" This is a new game that is similar to the hit on the DS. Check out more info here.

    There was a ton of other stuff that was announced, and you can check out the full list here on Kotaku:
