Many E3 Game Lists Announced
The list of games to be shown at the E3 Expo in Los Angeles next month is rapidly increasing,
and this Eurogamer feature
has a round-up of what's been announced so far. There's always plenty of new titles and surprises, and this
year is no exception. A notable list comes from Sega, and includes
the Sonic Team title Billy Hatcher And The Giant Egg for Gamecube, more spiky hedgehog action with Sonic Heroes for GC/PS2/XBox, as well as Phantasy Star Online Episode III: C.A.R.D Revolution, a
card battle RPG for GC that continues the successful franchise. Another major company showcasing its line-up is Nintendo, who has an
E3 preview page that includes the now two-seater Mario Kart: Double Dash for GC and the eagerly awaited Advance Wars 2 for Gameboy Advance, as well as several Nintendo-bound Final Fantasy titles in association with Square/Enix. More updates as we get them.
Actually, the text is misleading. You can only play the new Mario Kart with 4 players at once. The broadband adapter lets you link your GC to another one, and then play with 8.
As another poster mentioned, the real appeal here is the idea that someone will create an Internet bridge to be able to play on the net, like they did with Halo on the Xbox.
