In Pictures: 20 Must-See Games And Components From E3 2010

In Pictures: 20 Must-See Games And Components From E3 2010
By
Call Of Duty: Black Ops

What better way to kick off Microsoft's press conference than with a little first-person shooter action from Treyarch and Activision? Serving as the seventh entry in the Call of Duty franchise, Black Ops blew us away with intense gameplay and awesome visuals.

The E3 demo was so spectacular that we wanted to jump onstage and rip the controller right out of Mark Laima's hands. Who wouldn't, since it was shown on a gigantic gaming screen, after all? We even felt remorse when a fellow soldier was knifed just up ahead in the dark, dusty tunnel.

Yep, we were into it.

This time, the setting isn't the typical World War II 1940s era, but rather the Cold War in the 1960-70s, taking players from Cuba to Vietnam to the bitter-cold Arctic.

Although the game is slated to launch on multiple platforms, the big news from Microsoft was that all add-on content will be released on the Xbox 360 version first through 2012. Content distribution will begin with new downloadable items associated with the game's future release on November 9.

    I just wanted Half Life 3 / Episode 3 this year. Is that too much to ask?

    13 of those are shooters of some kind. I'm not sure what's more pathetic, the development community for being so unoriginal or the consumer market for gorging themselves on them.

    And Kevin, did you even attend E3? Kinect was much more gimmicky than either Wii or Move. And biggest irony of the issue being that claimed the 3DS would not contain the style of titles I just berated above yet on display with no less than Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid, Street Fighter IV and Dead or Alive along with the following titles in development: Assassins Creed, Saints Row, Ninja Gaiden, Splinter Cell, Ghost Recon, Driver, Contra and Bloodrayne.
