Countdown to E3 2013 Has Begun

Actually, we've been sort of  counting down since the last one, but now we're really counting down because it's less than three weeks away.

On June 11, gamenerds will flock to the Los Angeles Convention Center like Tatooine sand-flies to a Hutt's butthole.  We have it on good authority that announcements will be made and people will be excited about digital entertainment. Mark these words: Games. Will. Happen. No really though, what's the buzz?

PlayStation 4: After Microsofts's big reveal last week, everyone and their n00b-slaying grandma is holding their breath for anything better than Microsoft's game-light Xbox One. Sure it looks badass and all, and we're sure the perks outweigh the bummers, but it just doesn't seem as gametastic as we want it to be. PS4,on the other hand, no one's even seen that thing. It could be a brain-implant with Dual Shock controller for all we know. Playstation will show us the goods on June 10th...on the eve of E3.

Nintendo: Is the fact that they don't seem to have any big news the big news in and of itself? We're psyched for Super Smash Brothers and all, but this might not be Nintendo's year. Wii U will have more new games and stuff, but everything will probably overshadowed by the other two systems.

Batman: Arkham Origins: An Arkham universe prequel!? Yeah. We've seen the trailer and hopefully we'll get to see in a few weeks how utterly amazing gameplay will be . Given how addicted we were to Arkham City and Asylum, we can only assume we won't see the light of day for weeks after it comes out.
