For the Pikmin crowd - looks quite innovative

Gears of War has officially been announced for the PC. 5 new SP chapters, more game modes, more MP maps, better graphics, etc. etc. I still haven't even seen this game in person, so it should be quite new and fun when it comes out. Weeee!

Check this Joystiq Preview of Metrod Prime 3: Corruption. I have to admit, I only played Prime a bit but wasn't a big fan of the controls. It felt pretty claustrophobic. Sounds like the Wii controls totally r0X0rs (but the graphics still lack).
Metroid Prime 3 is going to be the best Metroid Prime game yet. It's been burdened with the enormous task of fulfilling Nintendo's promise of providing unsurpassed FPS controls through the Wii Remote and Nunchuck. Surprisingly, Metroid Prime 3 has more than delivered in this near-final E3 build. Not only do the controls work exactly as we'd like them to, Retro Studios has surprised us by fleshing out the Metroid experience with its most ambitious story yet.

I have a couple of GTs sitting around right now, if you'd like to swap for one of them. They're a little bit quicker than the GS.

You know now that you mention it, I think I have the GT (eVGA GT KO) running at 580MHz. Should be enough for Unreal Engine 3 right?

I have that exact card. Do you have an SLI motherboard? If so, you can have this one to run SLI.

I do! That would be very awesome. I have actually never had any SLI ever. Haven't run two video cards since I had a Matrox Productiva G100 and the ol 6MB Orchid Voodoo1.

Re: Little Big Planet above - looks like it is PS3 only at this point and Joystiq loves it!
There's too much to love about LittleBigPlanet, and we're willing to bet that casual players will love playing LittleBigPlanet when it comes out later this year...
It's difficult to truly convey how fun the game really is. No video demonstration, nor write-up can effectively portray the creative potential that's hidden away in LittleBigPlanet.

Then it shall be yours. Actually, I just looked, and it's not the KO edition, but I think that it will still work perfectly. It's the same class, just slightly different clocks, which I believe has been supported for several driver revs. I'll PM you...

Joystiq seems to think Army of Two could be cool. I tend to agree that a game based on 2-player MP action has some potential.

I thought that one looked pretty cool too. Isn't it console only though?
