  • Great last day, already cant wait for next year!
  • This years E3 was somewhat lackluster, nothing overly surprising. A lot of stuff leaked on the internet as usual.
  • Underwhelming E3. the good stuff was good, the bad stuff was....REALLY bad, and most everything else was just meh. Nothing really groundbreaking, save for Watch Dogs.
  • Still excited to see the Unreal Engine 4 demo :S How many more hours is it? 2, 3?

  • Fantastic E3 coverage by the GI crew! There was so much info my head was swimming. You should pat yourselves on the back that you have yet survived another E3. Get some rest..you'll need it for next year. Especially if GTA V will be on in the mix.
  • Sad to see E3 over :( It was a lot of fun sitting with my friends Monday afternoon and watching all the press conferences. Compared to last year, I'd say it's about the same if not a little better in terms of games and surprises. All I know is early 2013 is going to be a CRAZY time for gamers, just look at February alone.

  • E3 this year wasn't completely bad like some people are trying to make it. I just don't get what they were expecting from it.
  • Some great news out of these last four days.

  • What an amazing week!! Some great games & lots of gameplay. Lets do this again next year
  • That wasnt a bad E3 cant wait for 2013 now ;)

  • Lookin forward to Tomb Raider mostly. Curious and hopeful about the L4D prequel. Interested in the castlevanie. The rest I'm less enthused about.

  • No Fallout 4 at E3. BETHESDA, I AM DISAPPOINT!
  • I'm interested in a few of these games. A few I wanted announced didn't get announced...so I'm not happy about that.

  • "Had some pretty news stories."

    I did not find these pretty at all.

  • Great E3.

  • It was fine, it would've been better for some people if Bayonetta was a confirmed character for All-Stars Racing Transformed, and if there was..... Bayonetta 2.

  • Now that its all over I can say that this wasn't the most lively E3.  Not many actual reveals, I believe only Watch Dogs and Splinter Cell: Blacklist (which was even speculated) were true surprises, as even Beyond: Two Souls had a minor tease a few weeks ago.  In fact I'm actually counting off what wasn't shown.  So it was mainly a show about updates, but they certainly were big ones.

    Seeing 7 minute demos of The Last of Us & Assassin's Creed III was amazing, and other appearances certainly didn't disappoint either.  But I believe the lack of big announcements, combined with Sony & Microsoft's blatant evasion of anything next-gen means that this console cycle is really coming to a close.  It is now inevitable that next year's show will bring next-gen into full view, most likely with the systems & demos being paraded without shame.  2013 just might be the last hurrah for the PS3 & 360.

  • Too bad, it gives me a shame to see E3 going away like this.
  • Very very excited for Tomb Raider and The Last of Us
  • I think BlackOps2, Halo4, And Gears of War: Judgement Day look really good.
