No FF versus 13.
I actually agree. Sure, I don't like Noctis' character design because he looks like goddamn Sasuke Uchiha, but the game itself looks cool.

I was disappointed by Microsoft's...everything. Noone wants the goddamn Kinect, Microsoft!
I find it really odd that people complain that Microsoft wasn't supporting Kinect enough and when they announce a fair amount of titles people complain they showed too much Kinect.

You do realize that they've sold like 11 million units and now need to support the platform right?

That Ubisoft stated no 'Beyond Good and Evil 2' till' the next hardware swap. I was immensely disappointed. Though I'm happy they're still interested in making it, sliver lining.

Valve wasn't there but I knew they weren't going to but Gabe said there's three big surprises from Valve this year and none have been mentioned yet. :D

My biggest disappointment though is I have absolutely no interest in 'Skyrim' or 'Mass Effect 3' even though I can plainly see why people like and want to play them. :/

However, I still have a lot to look forward to still so that's good.

E3 could never live up to my expectations. There is just too many things I want. Off the top of my head:

After the sly announcement I prayed Jak and Daxter was next. But no. Still, Sly = YES
The last guardian a no show
Valve was nowhere to be found
The Battlefield 3 tank gameplay was painful to sit through.
New Fable looks pretty dumb
Mass effect 3 looked sketchy.

Probably more but those are what really stuck with me.

I would have liked to see the new Splinter Cell - you know, the one that better be heading back to Chaos Theory's level of intelligence and stealth before I start fucking shanking people out of rage.

I remain dubious of Hitman: Absolution. A helicopter-chase sequence and retard-o-vision? Hmmm. I know the latter is only on certain difficulty levels, but I doubt that its not impacted on the game's design. The tone also seems to be more Contracts (bleh) than Blood Money (awesome-o), but we shall see.

Was glad to see Far Cry 3 though, and Arkham City gave me a raging stiffy.

I was disappointed in the complete lack of anything new being unveiled. The only new game that I didn't know about that looks like it could be cool is Overstrike.
Pretty much this.

In general, E3 seemed kind of lackluster. The game I was most interested in was Skyrim, but that only got a 30 min Behind closed doors video. Great for the media, sure, but it left the rest of us with some massive blue... um, fingers...

Would have liked to see more playable demos for a lot of games, but there seemed to be almost none this year. Everything was, "Oh, watch this scripted video. Now ask questions that I'll most likely deflect because I don't want to make too many promises."

Best Part of E3 this year is going to be Yahtzee's Massacre next week.

Microsoft and Sony releasing new systems was my biggest letdowns. I'm tired of dx9 being the standard! >.>

Can you provide me the link about what you said was going on with Beyond Good and Evil 2? If, true, I guess there's very little for me to look forward to from Ubisoft for a while.

Thanks for the link AngelicSven. At least 2012 won't devoid awesome titles, even without BG & E 2.

Half life 3.... maybe next year?
About half-life 3 (or episode 3 whatever), wasn't Portal 2 announced during PAX something? There is still hope. Even so, Valve's absence was a pity.

OT: The lack of Persona 5 or Persona HD collections was awful.
