E3 2011 Awards: Most Surprising Game
We've awarded the best games accordingly, so now it's time to give a nod to what surprised us the most. It doesn't have to have high production values, amazing visuals and whatnot, it just needed to surprise us in some positive manner. Needless to say, there was plenty of that going around at this year's E3.
The GamingUnion.net E3 2011 Awards were decided by the five members that attended the show. Each person voted for their first, second and third pick and the votes were then tallied up. Therefore, it's a decision felt by the majority and not an individual.
Most Surprising Game: Ninja Gaiden 3
Ninja Gaiden 3, while not a brand new franchise, certainly came out of left field. The demo was functional, the camera worked, the combat was great and the overall experience was just so darn satisfying. It's definitely a game we recommend everyone 17 and above keep an eye on. You can read more about it in this preview written by yours truly.
