My hopes are for games this fall that I want to play. Cause as of now it's looking pretty barren for me.

We still have 3 weeks to go. Give it a bit more time. I'm sure we'll get plenty of leaks before the event.
Since they've already confirmed the western release of Yakuza Kiwami and Yakuza 6, I'm curious as to what sort of Yakuza announcements could we expect to see at E3. Maybe the exact release date for Yakuza 6? Though, they probably wouldn't wanna talk about that before Kiwami is out, so it wouldn't steal the spotlight form that game.

Might as well get my two pence in..
I absolutely hope we get a Shenmue HD 1 + 2 announced, and hopefully out this year.
As a Switch owner I really hope there's lots of stuff announced. Namely Rocket League and I hope we get surprised by third parties publishing more current gen games than we maybe expect. I just really love this system and want as much choice as possible.
Other than that thought I'm really not all that fussed. I have tons of games I've yet to play like Horizon, still never finished Bloodborne, Zelda is something I play for maybe an hour every couple of days so could take me months to make a dent in... There's too much going on, lol, and not enough time to play all these games.
Hope Mario Odyssey has good hands on impressions, I'm really optimistic. Never been much of a Nintendo fan but the Switch has won me over, I want to see them bring their best modern Mario game just like they've done with MK8 and Zelda, with Arms shaping up to be much better than I ever thought when I saw the initial reveal. Maybe the rumoured Pokemon Stars can be my first ever Pokemon game...
Also, show me some great Spiderman gameplay and maybe, just maybe, an epic TLOU gameplay reveal.. Shit this E3 could be quite good actually!

I realize you said you'd stopped reading my original post, which makes this somewhat redundant for everyone else, but I'm generally looking for a strong story with interesting characters. I'll be quite pleasantly surprised if that's what Splatoon 2 delivers, which is why I'm not predicting it. In fact I'd be completely shocked, which is why it never occurred to me to include it in hopes/dreams. If it happens, though? I'm all over it.
As for Xenoblade 2? I covered that in the rest of my original post. I'll be pleasantly surprised if it does indeed happen in 2017 as planned. I'm certainly watching for it! Sadly I never got to play the original due to NOA letting GameStop screw everyone over with their inane production plan designed to squeeze out as much used revenue as possible. I refuse to support that particular leech on the industry.
Having a compelling Mario/Rabbid RPG that ships in 2017 falls firmly in the hopes/dreams category. I'd love to see it, but I'm expecting the latter half of 2018 presuming it exists.
Cyberpunk gameplay trailer
I think Cyberpunk in general is gonna be an interesting game to follow because it could single handedly decide how CD Projekt is perceived by the general public for the next 4-5 years
As of now, CD Projekt has had one IP and one god tier game. Tomonobu Itagaki also has a god tier game under his belt, and look at where he is now. If Cyberpunk is so-so, that's it, CDPR will have not proven themselves on a new IP and will from that point be known as "those guys that made witcher 3 and own gog", until their next try
If Cyperbunk is a hit, it will probably mark the start of CDPR game launches from then on being huge events on the scale of Bethesda and Rockstar launches. 5+ million day 1 guaranteed.

I want to see details/release dates (if there isn't one yet) for...
Yeah I'd be down for another Splinter Cell, I don't think most people would be though. I liked Blacklist a lot, but I don't think it sold well IIRC.
- Ni No Kuni 2
- Red Dead Redemption 2
- Danganronpa V3
- Cyberpunk

Sorry for going the ignorant route and letting you repeat that stuff lol. Appreciate your patience. Yeah I don't think Splatoon is what you want then. I don't think theres much reason to believe Xenoblade gets delayed though. We had one game that released on time and one that got delayed. Don't understand why everyone expects this one to get delayed as well.
Good on your stance on Gamestop.
I don't really believe the Rabbids game is 2017 either, but why do you make the jump to the latter half of 2018 right away? That's the stuff i don't get. Might be January for all we know.

Predictions:
Microsoft- Halo 3 Anniversary, Crackdown 3, Full Scorpio reveal , Fable Reboot, Sea of Thieves.
Sony- Updates and release quarters for Spider-man and God of War. More details on Last of Us 2. Call of duty and Destiny 2 segments. Sucker Punch's new game announcement. Over all it will be a tamer year for Sony, but lots of 3rd party games will be shown.
Nintendo- Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2, Xenoblade 2,Fire Emblem Warriors, online service details, Zelda DLC, One surprise game for 2017, and one small tease for 2018.

I've owned every prior Nintendo console, so I'm used to lengthy droughts in first-party content. I expect everything that could reasonably be pulled into Switch's first holiday season will be, and that they'll take their time with anything that can't. That's simply my predication based on prior experience, not an assertion of fact.

I would love to see:
Switch:
Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 3 / Elite Beat Agents 2
DJ MAX Portable
Rhythm Fever
Advance Wars
PC:
RDR2
That's all I can think of right now.
I predict none of these are going to happen, and that I'll have to hook up my PS4 again to play cowboy.

Nintendo: A lot of stuff, they're in a state where they had a great start and are expected to keep momentum, E3 will be a crucial event to show what's coming.
Sony: FFVII:R, Spider-Man and Shenmue 3 gameplay and details and I will be a happy man.
Microsoft: Spencer's latest statement about prioritizing first party/exclusive content leaves me curious if this will take form at E3. And of course, more details about Scorpio. I will closely watch this one.
Rockstar: RDR2, feed me.
Square-Enix: Final Fantasy Dissidia console release date, more details about Project Octopath.
Capcom: For the love of everything that's good in this god forsaken world give us more details on REmake 2! D:

Latest prediction: Bandai Namco is going to quietly have one of the strongest line-ups of the show with games like Ace Combat, Ni No Kuni and Project Cars. I'm also thinking there's a decent chance of a new Soul Caliber getting announced since Tekken 7 will have shipped by then. Though that could very well be a TGS game (assuming it exists).

Yep. There is also a high chance for Code Vein, God Eater 3 and a new Tales game. There is a tales festival in Japan early next month, so if they announce something there, maybe we will get localization confirmation at E3.

Prediction: Sony shows off another peripheral for PSVR.
Hope: Nintendo unveils another big, new IP (not the Rabbids crossover).
Dream: I hate to do this, but... TWEWY 2 for Switch.

Since Sega did a Steam port of Bayonetta, with a Steam port of Vanquish coming next month, maybe Sega will port some Yakuza games to Steam?

Safe prediction:
Nintendo: has more third party support than we think. Will show a few titles coming in 2017. Mario Odessy is everything people expect it to be.
Sony: Ps4 price dropped to $199 or $229, Spiderman, and last of us 2 blow peoples minds.
Xbox: Scorpio is truly the next Xbox, not an Xbox one at all. Full BC with Xbone.
Dreams:
Nintendo: online service is surprisingly great. it is simple and just works. Both esports and casual friendly. Cross game chat, party chat, game appointments by the App. Remove free games and give dedicated servers for esport titles. $30/yr
Sony: psp3 or trinity is real. Coming this fall. Focus going forward will be on mobile gaming that connects to TV. Boxes like ps4, Xbone are an antiquated idea. Many games shift to be played on both portable and console.
Xbox: MS goes all out and Xbox 4 ( Scorpio) is really a Windows 10 machine that plays games too. Will be able to play apps and win 10 games available on Windows 10 store.

The dream is to get a successor to the PSP and Vita and also, Bloodborne 2 or a new Soulsborne type game from Fromsoft.
Predictions: Scorpio will be thoroughly unexciting, Sony will probably not be very thrilling either and Nintendo MIGHT give a decent surprise. So all in all, I don't expect this year to be very exciting, just more of what we've already seen and maybe a small Nintendo surprise.
I am very unhyped, I hope that changes though.

God of War
I think this will be the most important game for Sony at this event. The game has changed too much and fans would die to see more details from Kratos's new journey. A cinematic, epic trailer with some gameplay (no boss battle, please!) would be the dream.
Spider-Man
I'm not a big fan of Spider-Man, but this is Insomniac product. It will be great. The first trailer was gorgeous. I hope they will show us a long gameplay footage.
Days Gone
Honestly, I haven't a special feeling about this. Not yet. It has the potential to be a great new IP. I wanna see a different aspect of this game at E3. Killing zombies with lots of diffrent ways was so cool, but not enough. Hope they force us to love DG.
Death Stranding
The most mysterious game of all times! 2 sick trailers and no gameplay. I really have no idea about that. I think Kojima said that it's like Uncharted in terms of gameplay? And ROPE is the main element in the game? God, I really wanna see the gameplay!
Detroit: Become Human
Heavy Rain was one of my best PS3 game. As a big fan of his works, I would love to see a different trailer from a different studio. Although I don't need it. I know I would love the game at the end.
Bloodborne 2
Another masterpiece from Miyazaki. I know, it's beyond dreaming, but let me dream...
Sucker Punch's new IP
I think this will the opening of event. They were in silence for a long time. It's time to reveal what they're cooking. I hope we meet them.
So where the hell are the "Wizards"?
Uncharted: Lost Legacy. Well, we saw enough of that, I think. I don't want to see that what happened to Uncharted 4, happens to Lost Legacy. They showed us the best part of U4!
The Last of Us: Part II is the most anticipated game for me, but I think it isn't necessary for this E3. Sony has tons of bombs for blowing people's mind. I didn't mention some of them. Shenmue III, Dreams, GTS, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Red Dead Redemption 2. They could be there. Besides that, there is no doubt that Days Gone is TLoU reminder. I think a trailer of TLoU: PII would kill Days Gone's hype. So yeah, I think it's better to save Naughty Dog for PSX.

Ahhh, E3, that elusive event that still feels like Christmas coming early to me but which at the same time keeps eluding me in terms of being able to watch most of it live. This year's main cause (apart from the generally terrible time slots for EU folks again)? An unexpected workshop for my wife's academic work that takes place on those exact days in Bristol, meaning I have to travel with her from Germany along with our 1,5 yo daughter to help take care of things.
So my biggest wish is simply to be able to actually watch the press conferences shortly after their broadcast times while not being spoiled by Gaf and the rest of the internet. (Please tell me there will be a spoiler free E3 thread where I can just click on links to the presentation videos and avoid looking for them on Youtube and see spoilers in the process?)

- Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite's further showcased roster disappointing many fans.

What I want/think we'll see:
EA: Battlefront 2 and some other Star Wars game reveal/footage. Maybe a look at Bioware's new game?
Microsoft: Crackdown... I literally can't think of anything else I want to see from them, the Halo reveal won't be Halo 3 Anniversary though, it'l be something else.
Sony: Last of Us 2 Gameplay, Spider-Man Gameplay, New Sucker Punch Game; probably not Infamous.
Ubisoft: Big Assassins Creed Gameplay, 2 Big new IP reveals.
Nintendo: Big gameplay highlight on Mario. Hopefully some more big reveals to tease us for next year.
Bethesda: I have no clue.

I mostly hope for stuff that is overdue.
Cyberpunk 2077 - This should be well into development by now. I fear it will slip out of people's interest if showing material is postponed further.
FF7:RE - Nothing less than a proper trailer and release date for Episode 1 is welcome at this point.
KH3 - A proper trailer at the very least, showing off the revealed worlds + 1 new one.
EDIT:
Also, Elder Scroll VI.

- Monsterhunter finds a way to stay relvant.
- Death stranding blowout
- A new 2d-vania is announced for the switch.
- Sony announces emulation for PS4
- From software teams up with Yoko taro for it's next project.
- Scorpio makes Xbox relevant again somehow. Not hardware related.

We're supposed to hear more about the next title this month IIRC, so possibly some footage of it. However, you might be right about them not wanting anything to overshadow Kiwami's release.
I agree with this, I kinda want Sucker Punch's next title to be a Sly Cooper game even if that is over an new IP.
If it a new IP, I hope they still go with the Sly Cooper formula of making it open world but also making it linear enough that the game doesn't drag itself with unnecessary side content.
