   Best Shooter
   Dust 514 – very open world concept from what I can tell, could be interesting.

   Best Action/Adventure
   AC3/GOW:A/TR – not sure which one will interest me more leading up to the releases, but each has unique aspects to them, AC3 might be my favourite though because of the naval aspect.

   Best Multiplayer
   I’m split between ST and Battle Royale, I know more about Royale and I’m drawn to it more because of the characters (still waiting for them to verify Jak/Daaxter, and Ratchet/Clank) although if the ST game is done well it could be fun too.

   Best Indie Game
   Soundshapes – nuf said

   Best Original Game/Most Innovative/Best in Show
   Choosing from your list I’d have to go with a 3 way tie: Watch Dogs (Ubisoft), Beyond: Two Souls (Quantic Dream) and The Last of Us (Naughty Dog), but if I had to I’d go so each has a category:
   Best Original Game – Beyond: Two Souls (Quantic Dream)
   Most Innovative – Watch Dogs (Ubisoft)
   Best in Show – The Last of Us (Naughty Dog)

   Best in show was, in my opinion Halo 4. Not a big fan of the franchise, but it looks like they are actually adding new and fresh gameplay to this game. The AI looks completly amazing too. Most of the other games seem to be adding the same old stuff. I will be keeping my eye out on Halo 4. The game I am mostly excited for is Aliens: Colonial Marines!

   Best Shooter – Far Cry 3

   Best Action/Adventure – Assassin’s Creed III definitely, soo much awesomeness packed into this game, it’s definitely as epic as Red Dead Redemption by now, which is REALLY tough to get to, in my books.

   Best Sport/Racing – Need for Speed – Most Wanted

   Best Motion Controls – Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth

   Best Multiplayer – Honestly can’t choose..FC3, Battle Royal, GoW, Halo 4

   Best RPG – Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance(Haven’t ever played it, but I have read one of the comics, it was strange but something completely out of this world and amazing with all those Disney characters. Also a trailer for this game looked really cool to me too)

   Best MMO – Dust 514

   Best Indie Game – Sound Shapes..?

   Best Original Game – REALLY hard…Watch Dogs – The Last of Us, Beyond: Two Souls….they ALL blew me away, though Watch Dogs might’ve been the most mindblowing one, while Beyond was the one that made my mouth gawp for the graphics, and while The Last of Us was really suspenseful.

   Best Handheld Game – Assassin’s Creed 3: Liberation hands down, I am so close to buying a Vita, and when I do, it’s definitely going to be the epic ACIII:L PSVITA bundle.

   Best Hardware – lol, Wii U wins cause it’s bigger than the other stuff listed

   Most Innovative – Watch Dogs…that game’s whole trailer then gameplay was just mind blowing. o_o

   Best in Show – Assassin’s Creed III hands down, as if everything I saw in the Ubisoft conference wasn’t enough, NAVAL BATTLES!!!

       I’m guessing you are referring to Watch Dogs? Yes I heard about the tablet integration, but not much info on it. Do please write here anything you can tell me briefly. Or were you talking about ACIII having TABLET integration o_o

   I honestly don’t get people’s hype for The Last of Us. I mean, it looks like a cool game, and it come from a respected developer. But as my friend put it: “I don’t want to pay 60 bucks for a movie”

     That is pretty sad, when you are playing the game more than 80% of the time with cutscenes here and there. Oh wait, maybe you just don’t like how reallistic it is and what a fine job they did on it that it looks as good as a movie. In which case, referring it to a movie would be a huge complement as to what an amazing job they have done with the game that it actually is better than most movies out there now-a-days. Oh right, cause it’s not set in some super sci-fy world it is considered a “move” than a game..cause otherwise Halo is just as much as a MOVIE as TLOU is lol…
