E3 is now over, which gives us a pretty thorough view of what’s coming down the pipe between now and the end of the year. Here are the best games (in our opinion) that you’re going to be playing.

Halo Reach: It’s upgraded graphics, space dogfighting and a speedier campaign. If you’re the type of person who likes Halo and wants more of what you like, this is it

This list is in no way complete, but just a small highlight of games we saw and heard at E3. We’ll of course be playing stuff like Gears of War 3, the new Twisted Metal, plus many others.
