Battlefield 3
Battlefield has a strong pedigree in the world of online first-person shooters. Battlefield, specifically the Caspian Border trailer is beyond impressive. If the gameplay can match the visuals, then Battlfield 3 has a shot at 2011 Game of the Year.
Devil May Cry
A lot of people were really concerned when Ninja Theory’s new Look for the classic Capcom character, Dante, was unveiled last year. While I’m still not a huge fan of the redesign, the gameplay looks as tight as ever. As a huge Devil May Cry fan myself, I’m really excited to see if Devil May Cry will live up to its predecessors.
Guild Wars 2
As someone who has never really been into MMO’s and who has always considered Guild Wars to be the bastard child of World of Warcraft, I was BEYOND impressed by this trailer. NCsoft just won themselves another customer. Guild Wars 2 also has my pick for Best of Show.
Some other tasty bits:
Valve held a massive tournament to showcase their new MOBA title, Dota 2. It is notable for having the largest prize ever awarded at an E-Sports tournament. Valve has shown they are serious about the genre and E-Sports in general with their million-dollar prize.

The Assassin’s Creed: Revelations Trailer, while awesome, doesn’t really show us any new gameplay elements that haven’t been a part of previous installments, it does, however, an interesting dubstep accompaniment.
