Top 10: E3 2012 game trailers and demos
Our favourite video treats from this year's E3
9. Lego LOTR
Impossibly cute, cuddly, heart-warming and funny – everything you could want from a Lego game. But again any middle-earth purists will be shrieking in rage .. calm down it’s only a book! One big questions remains unanswered though here, are Lego hobbits really smaller than Lego men?
10. Assassin’s Creed 3: Liberation (PS Vita)
The new Assassin’s Creed games are set around the time of the American Revolution and both retain the free-running gameplay of their predecessors. While the both are set to be strong releases for Ubisoft, we’re particularly intrigued by the Vita game. The home and portable console games have parallel plots, with the Vita title following the adventures of Aveline, who begins her struggle against the Templars in New Orleans. It promises to be refreshing change from the revisionist history of many titles, touching on themes including poverty, freedom and slavery.
And just one more …
11. Far Cry 3
It seems to give away a little too much about the Far Cry 3 plot, but then reveals this is just one plot strand, from one island, in a whole archipelago. If Far Cry 3 combines the lush island setting and gameplay of the first game with the story breadth of the second, then this could be game of the year.
