For the first time in a few years, I'm not one of the E3 judges who evaluate the best games of the video game industry for GameCriticsAwards.com. Not to worry. I've filled up my schedule and I won't have to try to see every single big game. But I'm a game fan at heart and I'll be going to the show not just to write about business, but to evaluate the best games from my own point of view. Here are my picks for the "most anticipated" games of the show. This post is much more in tune with my old job of being a game reviewer. But you can expect me to voice my opinion on the best of what I see. It's a good exercise to give readers a flavor for where the innovation is strongest in the $50 billion video game industry, which is finally drawing its share of high-caliber financial investors.
