Sony will announce the cancellation of all their realistic cinematic games and their reshuffled focuses.

They will announce plans to acquire more Japanese development teams and sell off unneeded studios such as Sucker Punch, Media Molecule and Guerrilla.

Naughty Dogs entire staff will be working on both Crash and Jak.

Japan Studio will go all in on a high budget Ape Escape remake/reboot, as well as the creation of their own JRPG series.

BELIEVE

Hahah, I'm so glad that won't happen.

- Mario Odyssey really makes it before the end of 2017
- Pikmin 4 reveal
- Platinum new title

- Mario Odyssey trailer and Treehouse demo day 1
- More Arms and Splatoon 2 (though hopefully not too much in the Digital Event considering the big focus already)
- Mario vs Rabbids trailer
- Animal Crossing teaser (not really interested in the series but I'm sure I'll end up playing co-op due to the inevitable split joy-con support)
- Nintendo spends a few moments on their online plans, but nothing detailed
- Zelda BotW story DLC trailer
- Fire Emblem Warriors trailer
- Fire Emblem 2018 won't really be there (teased for reveal later this year after FE Warriors trailer)
- Octopath Traveler won't be there

- Indie montage

Other Predictions:

- Trails of Cold Steel PC trailer

Might edit before E3 but wanted my hopes in before I forgot.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
omg, thank you for reminding me, im not ready

Ha, I should clarify, I wasn't hinting anything, I genuinely don't know. I was just playing along with the "HOPE" part :).

It's been a couple years since I spoke w/Suda directly

I'm most looking forward to Bethesda this year. I'm hoping that one of the two mystery games is NOT Evil Within 2 as people have assumed, but a new BGS game. I doubt it, but it'd be nice after Fallout 4 kind of didn't deliver. I also am really excited to see what post-Morrowind ESO looks like, and The New Colossus.

I'm excited for everything else but I don't really know what I'm looking for so I'm just gonna sit back and see what happens.

Sony understands E3 in a way nobody else does, Nintendo should have some stuff from a handful of interesting developers and Microsoft kind of needs this E3 to land after their quietest year ever.

So, it should be a good one.
 
Good, I'm glad a thread like this exist. I was thinking about this and was going to make a thread if I didn't find one.

I'm looking forward to a lot of things this E3

Any Mass effect Andromeda dlc news - if we don't hear about any dlc at E3, then we know for sure this franchise is actually on ice

EAs new destiny like IP - want to see what they got up their sleeves.

Sonys entire conference - their last two E3 have killed it, and knocked it out the park. If they do it again for a third time. Good Lord.

Borderlands 3 - borderlands 1 and 2 are still goats.

Bethesda two new games - interested is seeing what a Bethesda multiplayer game would be like since they've never made one.

Bethesda fallout 4 VR - I'm interested in seeing how they handle the movement in VR for fallout 4. If it works like what I'm thinking, it would be just the insentive to finally get me to purchase a VR headset.
 
Scorpio starts at $399 and launch mid / late September.

Nothing else matters. Games will come nevertheless

So "nothing else matters" from a games conference, including games to play on your new hardware?!

Deep Down.

This is the year.

Deep down, you know it's not happening.

Colony Wars is what I'm hoping for, is what I'm dreaming about every night and it is what I'm predicting to be revealed every year at E3 and other shows ;)

So I'm going with COLONY WARS and I expect Sony to open this year with the orchestra playing a COLONY WARS track.

Did you know, that COLONY WARS will be 20 years old this year??1

I hear you. So you're saying you want a new G-Police?!

Sony will announce the cancellation of all their realistic cinematic games and their reshuffled focuses.

They will announce plans to acquire more Japanese development teams and sell off unneeded studios such as Sucker Punch, Media Molecule and Guerrilla.

BELIEVE

Wow; the salt here is amazing! FYI all those "unneeded" studios have helped make the PS2, PS3 and PS4 a success. I'm sure getting rid of many of their studios who make excellent games would not have a detrimental effect at all. Despite lamenting the lack of Japanese first-party titles, wishing away a studio like Media Molecule seems incredibly dumb.
 
It won't happen but...

It's 20th anniversary of Klonoa this year. If Bamco announces Klonoa 3 I will throw up.

Hell, I'll take HD remaster of Wiimake+2.

Or just PS1 original working on PS4.
 
I hear you. So you're saying you want a new G-Police?!

No, read my lips: COLONY WARS, C O L O N Y W A R S !!

;) seriously though G-Police would be cool too and its 20th anniversary is also later this year!

Cross posting from the E3 GIF thread, Colony Wars happening is just a matter of time now:

So, I've been sending subliminal and not so subliminal messages to Yosp and other Sony dudes since the days of that semi official Playstation blog called "threespeech.com" to the official Playstation blog through comments and then later on Twitter to nudge Sony into making a new Colony Wars for the PS3 and then later for the PS4 ;) but alas I still haven't succeeded!!1

But now I think I know why...take a look:

1. A range of remasters for Xbox Scorpio at launch. Forza, Halo, Gears given the ultimate remaster treatment. Sure you may be able to play the old disc fine, but this will reworked to be 1080p/60 or 4k/60 (checkerboard?).

Very much on the money, expect Sea of Thieves in there too and 'Forza: Street'.
 
I hope to see fascinating new games. I also hope Scorpio won't be too expensive for me. I predict that I'll enjoy the spectacle of E3.
 
I honestly hope Scorpio blows the doors off of everything we've ever seen before and maybe even impresses some PC gamers with its abilities. I know that recently I've been shying away from my PC (even with a new 1080ti) to just play things on my PS4 for the sake of convenience and heat.

All I want out of this E3 is:

A lengthy KH3 trailer
New FF7 Remake trailer
Devil May Cry 5 announced for PS4
Final Fantasy 15 to PC
Zelda BOTW Story DLC trailer
Dragon Quest 11 NA Release
New GOW4 gameplay
Xenoblade 2 gameplay trailer
Pokemon Stars announced for Switch
 
Here are my hopes, dreams and demands for the Sony conference:

  • Spider-man kicks off the show with gameplay and release date.
  • Shadow drop of Playstation All-Stars Kart Racing (a spiritual successor to CTR, but with all Sony characters with some surprise cameos)—available NOW! Free-to-play model like Killer Instinct.
  • Twisted Metal HD collection (TM1, 2 and Black with online multiplayer and trophies)
  • inFAMOUS HD collection (1 and 2 plus DLC).
  • Shuhei asks Greg Miller to join him on stage—announces the ability to change PSN IDs.
  • PS+ adds PSNow subscription for no extra charge.
  • PS1 and PS2 games become fully BC.
  • Battlefront 2 VR full space battles.
  • Sucker Punch closes the show with their brand new IP.

They'll open big and close big. If Bloodborne 2 or a new game from Sony/FromSoft is happening I can see that being the opener as the orchestra could open with a tune from Bloodborne which would be stupidly awesome. I can see them closing with the reveal of the new Sucker Punch game perhaps, or a gameplay walkthrough on Spider-Man.

Bloodborne 2 will open the conference.

If you open with an orchestra you have to open with something that matches the hype and is well suited for that style. God of War was that game last E3 and Bloodborne will fill the spot this year.
Spider Man theme may sound cool played by an orchestea, but that's not what they're there for.

I'm in it for surprises, mostly.

Only things I am hoping for is some surprise horror games, and The Evil Within 2.

All I want
Microsoft:
$400 Scorpio

If we want to discuss miracles, the only chance Microsoft has at a comeback this gen is a sub $450 Scorpio, 3 new 90+ metacritic system-seller exclusives, and dropping the Xbox Gold fees to free for the rest of the life of the Xbox One as an apology.

To echo the previous few posts, starting Sony's E3 show with the orchestra playing music from Bloodborne II would be hype central.

I'm hoping to see Bloodborne II (as mentioned above), The Last of Us 2, Horizon Zero Dawn DLC, Destiny 2 un-announced new features (third sub-class for each class, official announcement of seasons etc), and my biggest hope/dream... Shenmue I & II HD.
 
Always in for the surprises. Are we getting a glimpse of Bioware's new IP?

Also for first game play of long awaited titles, like Cyberpunk
 
I want Sega to take the Streets of Rage Remake in house like they did with developer of Sonic Mania. Make a proper Streets of Rage 4, 2D all the way. Maybe 4 player co-op.

Otherwise, I want to see middle aged business men tell people when they should clap and get excited.
 
What I want

PlayStation
-Catherine Remastered
-We Happy Few gets a PS4 release (or Mac announced day and date with PC)
-"Nioh 2 is happening"

Switch
-Price drop
-Metroid Prime 4 / Super Metroid 2 (doesn't actually have to be a sequel to either, just in one of those styles)
-Pokemon Stars isn't a 3DS port, it's built from scratch for Switch

I could maybe see it get an early reveal with a CGI trailer or something, but didn't EA recently confirm it had been pushed back to ensure higher quality? Wouldn't be surprised if they pulled the curtain back at E3 next year and left a fairly short reveal-release cycle.
 
- Hopes
New Metroid
New Splinter Cell
New FF that will not take 10 years to release
REmake 2 footage

- Dreams
New Chrono Trigger (I think I would legit cry if this happened)
New Monkey Island

- Predictions
Beside the obvious ones, I predict a new Yoshi based game from Nintendo.
 
An Austin Powers game for Switch - my craziest prediction

Microsoft: I'm interested on how they price Scorpio and their strategy going forward.
Sony: Hopefully a successor to Bloodborne will be announced.
Nintendo: More footage and release date of Xenoblade 2.
EA: Hopefully a gameplay footage of Amy Hennig's Star Wars
Ubisoft: Mario x Rabbids gameplay
Bethesda: ??

Price drop?? They can barely keep them on the shelves. Not happening for over a year
