A few games on there I'm looking forward too. I wish they would say if Fable 2 will be on pc also! Also them deciding not to release The Force Unleashed on pc really burns my backside!
I'm a bit surprised Starcraft 2 didn't make the list. Of course though, Activision and Vivendi both pulled out of the ESA and E3 so that doesn't surprise me somehow.
Probably because of it's long time coming! Kind of like another game that's taking Forever (Duke Nukem)
