Top Five Movie Related Games Of E3 2011

 I had the pleasure of attending E3 last week, a beautiful yet confounding place that makes one feel privileged and deprived in equal measure. For those of you in the dark about how E3 works, most of the major new games had demos that were only watchable or playable by the gaming elite, by appointment only. Everyone else wanders over to the Activision Booth to play Modern Warfare 3 or 2K to pounce on Bioshock: Infinite only to find nothing more...

And Muse's Favorite Game of E3 2011 Is...

I got to see a 15-20 minute gameplay demo and play the game itself for a solid 20 minutes and am in love. A big reason I am so ecstatic here is because most of the other games I tried and loved I already knew I would love - this came as a very pleasant surprise, as I think it VASTLY improves upon the original. More on this soon. For now - enjoy the video :)Note: I didn't get to play any of the behind closed doors games, so Uncharted 3, Bioshock: Infinite, Skyrim, and Mass Effect 3 weren't in the running here....
