The DeanBeat: 17 of the most anticipated games of E3 2017

I was sad to hear that Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption 2 was postponed until 2018 and that it isn’t likely to be at The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in a public way. But that doesn’t mean it’s not going to be a spectacular E3. In fact, this year’s show will be oozing with greatness.

Most of the major game publishers and platform owners have big games to show. Even without the surprises and new intellectual properties that are sure to debut, I think that the game industry has a lot titles deserving of our attention. Here’s my list of the most-anticipated games of E3 2017.
