During my long stay in the English countryside I had plenty of time to ignore it and concentrate on E3 announcements. Seeing as I had all this time I also made a variety of lists and classifications. This post will contain the principal info which is a list of games, their respective platforms and release dates. My successive posts will then describe why gamers should be excited about this list.
I'll apologise in advance if this post doesn't do much for you however it is a necessary evil for what follows. I mean if I just described how great this game would be then you'd be asking yourself so many other questions. Screw the apologies, just the amount of games on this list shows how great a year this could be.

(The quality of the games is speculative and may be erroneous)
As you can see some of the games are missing a few details, however that does not diminish the excitement that there announcements elicit. The PS3 is looking pretty strong with its line-up however many of its exclusive don't come out any time soon. The Xbox 360 is looking solid but most of the big games in the near future are all multi-platform so no worries for both owners.
The next post will discuss individual games in a bit more depth. Please notify me of any oversights.
