Say Hello to Square Enix’s E3 2011 Roster

Square Enix opened up the proverbial floodgates with their E3 lineup and frankly, none of it is much of a surprise. A new Tomb Raider, another Final Fantasy and the hotly talked about Dead Island. The latter being the one I’m most interested in. I was a big fan of the first Dead Rising title and the sun-soaked beach venue of a similar game has me puzzled as to whether I should still play with the lights off or not. Here’s the run down (all dates are North America and subject to change):
