Look, there were interesting-looking games at E3, for sure. Resident Evil 5, Fallout 3, Gears of War 2 -- these titles and others are looking exciting and fun. Some of them even look like they might change or advance the face of gaming in some minor way.
But for all of the intrigue and excitement, a bunch of games on the slate that got some major press at this event just don't do it for Crispy Gamer. So here, in reverse order, are their least compelling games of E3.
"The Dundee-based (the UK) indie games publisher Little Nook and indie games developer Hyper Luminal Games, today announced with great thrill and joy that their heart-tugging narrative-adventure "Pine Hearts", is coming to PC (via Steam) and the Nintendo Switch on May 23rd, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
"The London-based (the UK) indie games publisher PQube and indie games developers Electric Monkeys (Brazil), and Secret Level Studios (the UK), are today very happy and excited to announce that their survival/roguelite "When the Light Dies", is now available for PC via Steam Early Access." - Jonas Ek, TGG.

Someone is trying to get hits on their website. What better way to get hits, other than insulting Little Big Planet.
What now to get about LBP? Its jammed full of awesome, who doesn't like awesome?
Number one and two are LBP and Spore!
I guess CounterStrike and Unreal Tournament are likely bad games since it's user created content that make them going, and going, and going!
Sure 99.9% of the user content is not that good, but when 1,000,000 people get at it, that 0.1% is a lot of great user created stuff.
Both games will make him eat his words.
I think he is right on with LBP. Its a prettied-up, fake 3-d sidescroller. Basically the same as Donkey Kong Country on the Super Nintendo. Whoo ho, you can play co-op and make your own levels. I predict that user created levels will show up in three main forms: dirty picture recreations, advertising for favorite... somethings, and impossible hard just for the hell of it. No, doesn't sound fun to me either. Should be a PSN game if anything.
Weird, I felt Gears 2 looked least compelling. More Winback/Kill.Switch gameplay with purdy visuals. Meh, to each his own.
