Midway's announced its line-up for E3, and it's one of its strongest ever - with next-gen titles like Unreal Tournament 2007 and Stranglehold rubbing shoulders with the likes of Rise & Fall: Civilizations War.

Next-gen's obviously heavily on the agenda, and fans of American sports will be excited to learn that Blitz: The League is due on Xbox 360, Wii and PSP (currently down for October, although you probably shouldn't read too much into that date yet, Wii fans - E3's a confusing time).

Meanwhile, Unreal Tournament 2007 will be appearing at the show on PS3 and PC, John Woo Presents Stranglehold is down for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC, and Rise & Fall's keeping up the PC end - as is The Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar, due out from Codemasters in the UK.

Other titles on the list include Mortal Kombat: Armageddon (PS2/Xbox), Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run (PS2/Xbox), RUSH (PSP) and Mortal Kombat: Unchained (PSP).

Rounding things out are Happy Feet (PS2/Cube/Wii/GBA/PC/DS), The Ant Bully (PS2/Cube/GBA/PC), The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy (PS2/Cube/GBA), MLB SlugFest 2006 (PS2/Xbox) and NBA Ballers: Rebound (PSP).
