The Assassin's Creed Brotherhood multiplayer trailer was voted best of E3. However, I still think the actual multiplayer itself looks weird although I'm willing to give it a shot.
So far, they have only shown the 'wanted' gameplay mode where each player is given a target to assassinate and each player is a target themselves. However, they will be other game modes set in several maps. There seems to be an 8 player limit.

Character selection. I'm only going to use the courteasan.
Despite my doubts, the trailer is really nice. Watch 0:55 =P
At last month's E3, LucasArts unveiled a little snippet of The Force Unleashed 2. No Battlefront 3(sobs) but this will more than make up for that.
Despite flaws, I think Force Unleashed was one of the best Star Wars games ever.
Now, LucasArts will have to top that experience with the sequel.
The demo showcased many new things;
Escape sequences. This a short action sequence that forces you get from point A to point B while overcoming enemies and obstacles in order to escape a threat. This was done to give you the feeling that Starkiller is now a fugitive.
Mind tricks. This will cause enemies to commit suicide or turn on each other.
Force fury. A new ability that increases your power.
Limbs flying. Limbs of enemies will now fly off when severed by your lightsaber.
Also, Boba Fett will be in the game. I can't wait to see both my favourite Star Wars characters(Galen Marek and Boba Fett) dueling.
The multiplayer is developed by DICE of Bad Company 2. However, this will not be a clone of Bad Company 2. The destructibility is off, vehicles play a smaller role(no tanks, choppers or uav) and maps are smaller and more suited for infantry combat. It seems to deliver fast paced combat akin to Modern Warfare 2 but retains all the good parts of BC2.The unlocking system is identical to BC2. Primary weapons now can have three different attachments. As far as I know, you still can't go prone.(WHY?!)
While multiplayer is nice, I want some co-op gameplay like Spec Ops in MW2. Though unlikely, I hope there will be a third game mode.
Trailer and some actual gameplay below.
Love how the tank shots are synchronized with the music in the trailer
The beta is now open for those who pre-order the game.
I'm really excited about Medal Of Honor not so much because of the multiplayer like most people but mainly because of the single player, Hopefully, it will be fully fleshed out unlike Bad Company 2 which was rather bland. Modern Warfare 2 was good but a little short. I wish the Medal Of Honor campaign will not be outshined by the multiplayer or any other game modes.
The story this time around is about the struggles of Tier One operatives involved in behind enemy lines action as well as that of the US Army Rangers in their fight against the Taliban in Afghanistan. There will be plenty of sneaking around and full scale gunfights including some vehicle sequences : similar to recent first person shooters. However, seeing as Medal Of Honor is a prestigious franchise, EA LA put all their effort into research for the game and freed of multiplayer commitments, it could finally be THE Modern Warfare 2 killer. Just saying.
Below are the two trailers that have got me so excited. They don't show much, but trailers hardly do anyway.
This the stage demo of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood at E3. It's a show stopper. Ezio has new moves, a new bed partner(Caterina Sforza) and a new city to explore(Rome). However, we have to deal with the death of Uncle Mario and the destruction of Monteriggioni. Again, I think the multiplayer is a bit weird(for now). Just watch it.
Ubisoft showed off Assassin's Creed Brotherhood at E3 and the single player looks promising. Why be a lone assassin when you can coordinate with others? In the short demo, Ezio utilized the help of fellow assassins to make a very bloody and unassassin-like entrance. Not really sure how it works but seems to be good. There also promises to be more 'epic' moments so that the game will not feel repetitive. Read more here
However, the multiplayer seems really weird, and I don't like it. Trailers below.
^ Weird or not?
*Random Thought*
Robin Hood as an Assassin. He was involved in the Crusade. He fought back against the oppressive authority. He was stealthy although he's more famous for arrows rather than blades.
E3 released a lot of goodies, including a short but very badass gameplay video of Killzone 3. The video shows of the new melee system, where there is no standard animation. Instead, you are given a first person view of how you take down the enemy. Very violent, but very nice. This is a PS3 exclusive. Although I'm a Halo fan, I think this might just top Halo Reach so IN YOUR FACE MICROSOFT
Valve is no longer a Microsoft exclusive! Their games were released on Mac a few months ago and now future games including Portal 2 is gonna be on PS3. In your face PC gamers.
God of War 3, the final installment of the to the God of War series. For me, this is one of the most awesome games out there with its action-packed, gorey combat with plenty of combos and not forgetting its epic storyline.
What I would expect is all new weapons, magic powers and more brutal combos. One of the new weapons you can already see in the demo play, a pair of metal gauntlets 'Cestus'. Hopefully there will be more weapons that have yet to be unveiled. =)
The awesome Cestus
I would like to see all new enviroments and settings in this one since the game takes place in Mount Olympus, home of the gods.There should be also plenty of boss fights against the gods with the help of your titan allies which would be AWESOME!!!
Of course, there is the matter of the storyline...I think the story will be good as it is the final installment. I would also like to think that the ending of this epic game will be, what else, epic.
CANT WAIT TO GET THIS GAME!!!
The demo is already out for download on Playstation Network. Demo play from E3 below.
