Preliminary E3 list teases two new Capcom games, Alan Wake still missing


The worker bees at IGN have been busy, buzzing about and gathering lists from some of the major E3 presenters of what's going to be on display in July. Of course, we're sure the powers-that-be have scrubbed these lists clean of any potential product spoilers (if you squint just so, you can barely make out Night Trap 2 ... or is that just us?), but we did want to share a few of the things that popped out:

  • Two untitled Capcom projects that weren't shown off at their recent CAPtivate event (Dead Rising 2 perhaps?)

  • Bionic Commando Rearmed: Considering E3's mid-July schedule, and the game's since-lapsed May release target, does this mean Rearmed isn't making a June release either? [Update: A Capcom rep told us the game would definitely be released "post-E3."]

  • Halo Wars is there, but Alan Wake is still missing from Microsoft's lineup. Unless they're still playing it close to the vest, 2009 then? [Update: A Microsoft rep told us, "We're still finalizing our E3 plans, so we can't comment quite yet."]

Of course, the list is still incomplete; we're missing games from Atari, Codemasters, Crave, Disney, Eidos, Konami, LucasArts, MTV, Nintendo, Sega, Sony Online, Square-Enix, Take-Two, Tecmo, THQ, Ubisoft, and Warner Bros. Interactive. So, yeah ... we're missing lists from just about everyone. It ain't far away now though.
