E3 2011: Day One: My Highlights

Day one of E3 2011 has come and gone. Here are some of my highlights.

Halo

Microsoft announced the long anticapted Halo 4, plus a remake of the original game Halo Anniversery. looks like I'll finally be picking this up.





Assassin's Creed Revelations

Despite Ubisoft's press conference being a complete and utter joke, they did manage to show off a awasome trailer and demo for Assassin's Creed Revelations. That's some impressive looking CGI.





Uncharted 3

The best game of the day was, of course, Uncharted 3, which looks amazing as ever.



Star Trek

A new game based on the recent Star Trek movie was announced. What? A Star Trek game that's not a lame top down shooter?



Sony Vita

The biggest hightlight of the day for me, and my most anticipated thing of the entire show, was Sony's new handheld. The Sony Vita{which is still a lame name} will cost $249 for the Wi Fi verison and $300 for the 3G version. The Vita will have a touch screen, a rear touch pad, front and rear cameras, basically everything but the kitchen sink. Sony did do some demos of the games, most notably Uncharted Portable, which looks pretty good.
