These are the 5 games Sony will use to 'win' E3

With the rumors of Microsoft planning to unveil a new console at E3, the spotlight has been placed on Sony to prove that the PlayStation brand is far from dead.

Let’s face it: Sony probably won’t be showing any new hardware next week at E3. The company still needs to sell more gamers on the already-released PlayStation Vita, and we wager that it’ll push the Move one last time. But, most of all, Sony will bring tons of games to the show – a strategy that often results in a company “winning” E3.

Here are the 5 games that we bet will “win” E3 for Sony:

 

5. The Last of Us

Have you seen the latest trailer? We think this might be “Game of E3 2012.”

 

4. Quantic Dream’s new game

If David Cage’s new game is anything like project Kara, we’re in. We can’t wait for this one.

 

3. PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

Although it’s already been announced, Sony has to prove to gamers that this isn’t just a smash bros rip-off. Seeing as Solid Snake might be just one of the many characters included in Battle Royale, we’re anxious to see Sony get a bunch of new, cool characters in this one. Oh yeah, and a Vita version.

 

2. Call of Duty Vita

Since Activision announced that Call of Duty would be making its way to Sony’s new handheld, first-person shooter fans have been curious to see what’ll come of this partnership. If the Vita has proven anything, it’s that it can handle an FPS. We see a scary future where people are playing “Call of Duty Vita” against each other at coffee shops.

 

1. New mystery game

We’ve been hearing rumors. That’s all we can say. Sorry.

    With a surprise reveal of Legend of Dragoon 2, we won't even need an E3 2013.

    Surprises are long lost on the videogames world (even mayor plot points are revealed before playing the actual game) But... here´s me hoping...

    Not going to Lie although I am highly fatigued of the COD series I'm very excited to see what it's going to look like on Vita.

     

    Mystery Game, please be Guerilla Games or Media Molecule's New IP.

    My guesses for the reveal:

    Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Tekken x Street Fighter, Metal Gear Solid 5, Heavenly Sword 3 or Simpson's Hit and Run 2

    Cause the first one was a really fun game at the time...

    Mirror's Edge 2 will make my year.

    And I dunno why #14 would even suggest it, but if Hit and Run 2 is in development that will be brilliant!

    God of War: Ascension will be the biggest and best game they show at E3, how did that get overlooked when assembling the list...

    @15 Just trolling lol. Only my first 3 were kinda serious, the last two were jokes but now that I really think about it, a simpsons hit and run 2 would be amazing!

Maybe FF 7 remake finally? now that we Sony fans have been violated by Square for bringing "FF15" to the WU, we deserve something back.... give us the freaking remake and fcuk fof haahaha !   i bet sony announces the Orbis... thats the only way theyll win!! even more if its going to be released on 2013 as many people say!  Announce it now... show it off next E3 deliver it on november 17 as alwayz xD
