Weekend Confirmed 115 - E3 2012 predictions, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, Dragon's Dogma
by Garnett Lee, Jun 01, 2012 6:00pm PDTE3 predictions! You love 'em! You hate 'em! You hate loving them? Whatever the case, The two Jeffs, and Insomniac's James Stevenson join Garnett to offer up plenty of forum fodder in anticipation of the big event next week. The crew tackles the big three--Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo--in the order of their respective press conferences. Does Xbox as a living room entertainment gateway give anyone goose bumps? Can Sony shake the Vita bottle hard enough to make a genie finally appear? Can Nintendo successfully answer "What would Mario do?" Of course, there's also time to talk some about the design plans for refining Diablo 3, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, and Dragon's Dogma before wrapping it up with Finishing Moves.

I don't care about Pikmin, but it looks good for what it is.
I DO love me some 2D Mario, so seeing a new NSMB game AND Paper Mario was great IMO.
Scribblenauts is the game I would be most excited for, but I'll want to see how it evolves as far as gameplay mechanics. If it's just a big-screen version of Scribblenauts or Scribblenauts 2, that would be disappointing.
Really disappointed that they didn't go into more detail with the online network, cause what I've seen so far from the Nintendo Direct conference doesn't have me convinced.
They also conveniently forgot to mention that the controller takes 2.5 hours to charge and runs out of batteries in 3 hours at full brightness.

You can play while it's charging, thank god, but it may as well be wired. It would be cheaper too.
