E3 wap up for the particularly busy

E3 is done.

So here's the show in one big list, distilled to bullet points for the fan on the go:

• Fable 2: It's done! Now on with the swashbuclking fantasy fun.

• Guitar Hero World Tour: Just like Rock Band, only Guitar Hero.
   
• Lips: Karaoke Revolution + light-up wireless microphone = love.
   
• Rock Band 2: A more accurate title might be I 1.1. Wireless drums, new song modes, more songs. Same classic Rock Band.

• DC Universe: With no launch date in site, it will be ahrd to wait for this MMO based on the DC comics universe.
   
• inFamous: From the guys who brough the world Sly Cooper, a new take on the superhero. Think Allen Moore + Grand Theft Auto.

• Resident Evil 5: Does it ever really get boring to shoot zombies? No, no it does not.
   
• SimCity Creator: Finally,ma  SimCity game we can play on the console. And, look mom!, curvey roads!
   
• Free Realms: The coolest massively multiplayer online game in years is targeted at kids. So what, I want to deleiver the mail in world, own a cat and be a ninja. Don't you?
   
• de Blob: Like Katamari Damacy in reverse, you must roll across a white city to paint it with color.
   
• Viva Pinata: An Xbox classic brings its cute charm to the DS. Or maybe the girl demoing the game was just cute and charming.
   
• Spore: After years of waiting, the excitement has faded. But Spore will be fun.
•  
• Mirror's Edge: Not since Super Mario Bros. has running and jumping looked like so much fun.
   
• Hasbro Family Game Night: Tired of looking for your Yahtzee dice? Your Battleship pegs? Your Connect 4 checkers. On the Wii, clean up is a snap.

• Monster Lab: Kill things and make their parts into robots. Kids will love it.
   
• Battlefield Pacific: WWII Pacific history + an arcade game = fun and educational.

• Flower: Lava lamp + falling in love + back rub = a truly wonderful game about playing the wind in a flower's dream.
   
• Fat Princess: Cute, politically incorrect and bloody multiplayer causal chaos.
   
• Pain: Amusement Park: Fling people out of a catapult and see how much damage you can cause him, and the world. Really, really stupid. And that why it's fun.
   
• SOCOM: Confrontation: Online only play let's you live life as a grunt on the ground in hostile territory.
   
• Ion Audio Rock Band drum kit:  For $300, you too can pay Rock Band on a pre-line set of electronic drums.
   
• Castlevania: Judgement: Castlevania + Soul Caliber = Fighting for Castlevania fans.
   
• Rock Band Revolution: Rock Band - vocals + Guitar Hero World Tour = An odd offering that does offer a fancy drum kit you can use with other games.
