5. Evil Genius (PC)-Have you ever wanted to become an evil villain who planned to destroy the
world? Well, Elixir Studios has the game for you. Evil Genius is a game where you play a diabolical villain who plans on destroying
the world. But first, you need to hire some henchman and plant traps around your fortress to stop those "do-gooders" from
stopping your plans. You can even own hotels near your base, to keep the same "do-gooders" from catching-up to your base.
This game will even allow you to capture and then boast to those "do-gooders". At the rate this game is going, it may be one
of the most entertaining games this year.
4. Fable (XBOX)-Created by Peter Molyneux appears to be shaping up pretty nicely. In this game,
every decision that you make will effect what happens in this game. Every person you talk to, every blow your character receives,
will effect what happens in the game. There' s even a real-time weather system, in which the weather changes and shows effects
of the weather on the landscape. This game just might be one of the greatest games of all time.
3. The Movies (Gamecube,PC, PS2, XBOX)-Another game from Peter Molyneux, The Movies will allow
you run your own movie studio. You can choose to make movies, run your studio, deal with your actors (or actresses) or all
of the previously mentioned gameplay choices. There are a lot of different actors, directors, sets, and costumes
to choose from in this game. If you're good enough, you can put your movies online for other people to see and critique
(at least on the PC version). The Movies appears to be one of the most creative games to come out this year.
2. Nintendo DS-When this was first announced, Nintendo left everyone in the dark on what this
system was going to be like. However, when Nintendo finally showed off this at E3, I was impressed. The Nintendo DS features
two screens, two shoulder buttons, four other buttons (Y,X,A,B), a built-in microphone, a battery life of 10 hours, wireless
capibilities, the ability to play GBA games, N64-esque graphics and touch screen. With these different functions, game
developers, now can make unique and new gameplaying expreciences that have never been explored. And with a strong line-up
of games featuring: Animal Crossing DS, Metroid Prime: Hunters, and WarioWare DS, the Nintendo DS is looking to
be one of the greatest game devices ever.
1. The Legend of Zelda (Gamecube): This game came out of no-where, and suprised everyone. The
only information about this game was shown in a trailer that last at least a minute, but that is the only thing that it needed.
The Legend of Zelda features Link in his teen years. He will have to battle a massive army, why, I don't know. The graphics
in this game are stunning. Link, this time, is able to fight his enemies while riding his horse. It may not be the most revolutionary
game of E3, but this game just may be the game that Ocarina of Time wanted to become. The suprising part is that many consider
the Ocarina of Time to be the GREATEST GAME OF ALL-TIME! For this, The Legend of Zelda is on the top of my
list.
Note: Here are some other stuff from E3 that looked interesting: Starfox (Gamecube), Animal Crossing DS
(Nintendo DS), Jak 3 (PS2), WarioWare DS (Nintendo DS).
