#93 E3 - 2003

The huge, 3-day E3 video game expo is always interesting. This year, I was a bit disappointed by the lack of innovative thinking. You could easily break down many of the new games at E3 into two categories; games where you run around and shoot people and games where you sneak around and shoot people. Despite my growing distain for these games, I couldn't help but feel a certain excitement around the three big guns. Doom III was not playable, but looked great. Halo 2 was shown in a live demonstration, which also looked spectacular. I wasn't able to see Half Life 2 first hand, because the line took a reported four hours. Check out Robotstreetgang for my rundown of interesting E3 games.
