Early E3 predictions

Every year those of us who follow the games industry closely begin to speculate on what will be announced at E3. Some announcements are a sure thing for this year such as Nintendo finally nailing down a date for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. One would be hasty to rule out a chance of Nintendo announcing new hardware.

Speaking of new hardware, Nintendo's 3DS is sure to have a long line of game announcements from a slew of third-party publishers. We're likely to hear from Sony and their new "Next Generation Portable" handheld. I wouldn't be surprised if we heard about third-party games for it too. Hopefully they'll give the poor thing a name.

I'm really hoping we'll see more Kinect games at E3. I knew when I bought the device that it might not get much support. I pretty much relegated it to a cash-grab; A 32X for the modern era. I've had my fill of Kinect Adventures and Dance Central. I want to play hard core Kinect games. With Child of Eden being delayed to summer, I essentially own a one-hundred fifty dollar webcam.

Well that's all I've got for now. Just wanted to write it down. I'll have a real E3 prediction feature later this year.

Wow, it's been a while.

Hello world! I have returned to this long forgotten dominion! After thorough deliberation I have come to the realization that if I write ANYTHING, even if it sucks, it is still however infinitesimally better than nothing. Therefore, in an attempt to better myself, and perhaps at some point the world of video games enthusiast press, I present to you:

SALMAGUNDI GAMER - THE RETURN!
