    What's the point when gamers are more than willing to drop $60 for the next game in the series (and make these titles the best-sellers year after year)?
    The biggest iOS game being shown is going to be IB Dungeons (again), lol.

    Well actually MC has had an annual release on October from what I've heard, so I wouldn't be surprised if a new game was dropping out on October.

    Still hoping they make a different FPS series though...

    Some new info on Dead Trigger from Madfinger Games should show up. They're doing hands-on demos.

    Yes, but they're going to need more production time to make it truly a big step up from 3. I can almost guarantee it's gonna release in 2013. Nova 3 have a production cycle of 1.5 years, I think we can expect at least that with GL's flagship (paymium) game.

    You can see the full E3 schedule there.

    Seriously, what a killer lineup this year. LEGO LotR?! 7 secret titles. Not to mention, everything on the list looks damn impressive.

    Edit: Is anyone out there looking forward to the Wii U? My childhood was pretty much 100% about the big N, but I feel like the Wii U is going to flop harder than the 3DS did in the US. I just don't see who would want it.

    It'll flop worse than the vita, esp if it keeps the same hardware as I've heard-heck even the itouch 4 gives it a run for its money, but don't quote me on that. The point is, the wii is waaayyy underpowered. Fun at times, but not up to playing anything like bf, lol. It's more of a family console, obviously, but what family plays video games together?? Certainly not mine or anyone I've seen. Only kids and their friends (so obnoxious online) or adults who have the time.

    1) I just did quote you. Come at me bro.
    2) Wii U is stronger than PS3/360 confirmed multiple times. No iOS product is stronger than either. It would be nice if you did research before spitting false facts though :).

    Yeah, it's confirmed as a next-gen console. Do you want one though?

    Didn't know that, but what I meant was that ubisoft itself as a publisher is focusing more on iOS, because the made a new studio to London or somewhere in UK. There was news about it at Gamezebo few weeks back.

    I made it clear that I wasn't sure. The fact is that I read *somewhere* that the wii u would have have no hardware enhancements from the original. Come to think about it doesn't make much sense if it'll be running "hd" games...

    As for the iPod comparison, I was comparing the original wii to the touch 4. And being slighly sarcastic. The original Wii is underpowered, though.

    I'm far more interested in next gen consoles such as the ps4 and such. I tend to think of the Wii as
    more of a fad...but that may just be me :)

    It will be interesting to see of its still riddled with obnoxious iap or not. Paymium, so I guess yes. But I would greatly prefer real racing 2's approach.

    By the way, thanks for correcting me. I'll be sure next time before I salivate incorrect facts :)

    Yeah your right every once in a while they(Ubisoft) personally publishes an iOS game, but you usually see ports of Ubisoft games from game lift like rainbow six and splinter cell. I do hope Ubisoft gets more involved nonetheless.
