Unexpected? It was pretty much already announced three different times.

I hate that they're doing this sh*t AGAIN this year, though. Dead Space 3, new Gears, Skyrim: Dawnguard reveal, new DC fighter from NetherRealm, Star Wars 1313, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, Shin Megami Tensei 4. Everything is getting blown way ahead yet again. Super f*cking annoying. Looks like another E3 where sh*t all happens we haven't already heard of. Nintendo is the only one with anything still under wraps.

Well duh, a new Gears was inevitable... But really? An announcement? This soon? The Gears of War trilogy wrapped up perfectly this gen. I was expecting another title for next generation. A prequel most likely. Maybe Microsoft has something up their sleeve for E3, after all.

I'm looking forward the most to the Wii U and I'm not even that excited about the Wii U, in fact I'm pretty disappointed that it's only a souped up version of current gen I was hoping something more along the lines of 360.5/PS3.5 instead of the .1 upgrade we're getting. Still I love Nintendo games and I'll have a blast with the console no matter how much third party support it gets.

As far as the other consoles, I'm just tired of current gen, all we're getting is sequels of stuff we've already played. It would really take something revolutionary/new/shocking to keep me interested but I don't see it happening sadly.

Again, it was already announced, just not the specifics. Someone at Epic, maybe Mark Rein, said they were working on a "new gears experience" before 3 even came out. There was some speculation it was a Kinect game and some speculation that People Can Fly was behind it.

Gears of War Exile, I knew about, but that has been canceled for a while already. The People Can Fly project, I just found out about recently. Weren't they working on Bulletstorm 2 which they put on hold for a more important project? Which now seems to be Gears. I just found it wierd that they're announcing another Gears game just months after GoW 3 released. Almost like overkill, but too early to judge.

There was never talk about Bulletstorm 2. Rein said they liked the project and thought it was quality, but the game sold like sh*t.

IGN said something about People Can Fly getting pulled from Bulletstorm 2, here. I guess development never really started then, or they started to work on it and moved on to Gears. Could be either one, according to IGN anyway.

And I'm also really loving the direction the new Tomb Raider is going in.

Stop reading IGN. It's the asshole of videogame websites.
