that X games looks sick, and I'm pretty hyped about the new Mario Kart as well. Bayonetta a little less so; I didn't like the original as a lot of other people did.
Favorites of E3 2013: In Picture Form

Doling out “winners” and “losers” for E3 has always struck me as kind of pointless. It’s like grading the NFL draft the day after it happens – you don’t really know how well these picks will pan out in the end. Last year Assassin’s Creed 3 racked up a metric ton of E3 “Game of Show” awards from industry publications, only to be released to a rather tepid critical and consumer reception. Having a flashy presence at E3 – even with a solid demo - is just as telling as a game that no one notices or even has a subpar showing; it really doesn’t matter.
That being said, it doesn’t mean that we can’t use E3 to gauge the barometer of interest these showings generate. The games that impressed us may not amount to much, but at least they get us talking about the future.
With this in mind, here are my top 5 most interesting showings of E3 2013 in picture form – test your game knowledge and figure out what they are. Will these games end up being any good? Who knows, but there’s no hard in getting a little excited about what the future may hold.
Good luck in identifying these games, and be sure to share the games that piqued your interest too!
*Please note I didn't include any games we've seen a TON of, or that are coming out soon. Only stuff that interests me that I've seen little of, or was newly shown off or announced.
