is, simply put, what makes games fun. You can have incredible graphics,
and awesome content, but if the gameplay isn't fun there is little
point in playing.

Deciding
on a game with the best gameplay of E3 this year was another category
that gave us a few choices. What makes for a fun game? Is it
action-based real-time combat? Character development? Incorporation of
story and lore?
Is it something that would be fun to play solo, as well as with a
group? All of these things weighed heavily on our minds as we reviewed
all the fun games we played at E3.
In the end it came down to robust customization, adrenaline-rushed
combat, and thoughtful environmental design.
The Ten Ton Hammer Best Gameplay of E2 2010 Award goes to none
other than...

DC UNIVERSE ONLINE
(Sony Online Entertainment)
Runner
Up:
TERA
(Bluehole Studio & En Masse Entertainment)
We've been waiting for an
MMOG that plays as well on a controller as it does on a keyboard and
mouse, because until that happens, we won't believe in a console MMOG
(with all apologies to
Final
Fantasy XI).
DCUO
has us believing - finally a smooth, intuitive control scheme for
flying and fighting that's tailored to your preferences, whether you
game primarily with your thumbs or your fingertips. Add important
gameplay tweaks like a revision of the much maligned death penalty (or
lack thereof) and a good or evil choice at the start of the game, and
DC Universe Online
is our pick for best gameplay at E3 2010.
