Will there be an E3 bingo card OT? If not here's my attempt for Nintendo...

2.) WiLD - another highly ambitious project being created by an industry icon. I need to see more of this. Immediately.

I'm very interested in Wild, but I'm also wondering if they've over-promised. Isn't the map said to be the size of Europe? And I'm sure it will have extensive online stuff integrated. Just seems like they showed it really early on and some of their ambition seems really out there.

Actually, I just realised that all of what I just said can apply to No Man's Sky as well, but for some reason I'm confident in HG achieving their ambitions with that.

I believe in Michel Ancel!

Honestly, the game could be half the size of their ambition, and it doesn't even matter. HUEG open-worlds are overrated. It's about the amount of fun you can condense into that world.
 
So, guys, which are your 3 most anticipated games of the show? Personally i can't wait for:

1. Fallout 4: it has been a while since i visited the wasteland and after watching Mad Max: Fury Road i need some post-apocalyptic action. I can't wait to sunk several hours of my life in this.
2. Scalebound: it's Platinum and it has dragons, nothing can go wrong (i hope). In my dreams this game is something like Devil May Cry x Monster Hunter, a killer formula if you ask me.
3. Project Horizon: yeah, we barely know something about this game, but the concept art is amazing and evocative at so many levels. It reminds me to Destiny (hopefully it's a better game) but with cyber dinosaurs.

1. Suicide Squad - game has been in development for a long time, its reveal is imminent. It will be this year, the only question is when. They said fuck it and dry revealed Arkham Knight and the whole world heard, they don't have to show it at E3, but it would be a good way to promote the movie as well. It's a tough call because they may want to focus on AK's release promotion in June instead of promoting a new game a week before AK comes out.
2. BK Spiritual Successor from MS - mostly hoping it gets a PC port whenever it hits. Love some BK.
3. Mass Effect 4 + pretty much all games from EA.

In truth I think the only good conference this year will be EA. They're due for one.

Oh I'm also sure therre will be a Dark Souls 3 trailer somewhere. B team hasn't been doing nothing.

Wait what?! When has this been known since?
 
I am excited for that game, but also worried that it's just another "RPG" shooter similar to Destiny :(

At least we know Horizon will have a story! Heyooo

Seriously though, who the hell knows what the game will ultimately be.

I'm dying for any bits of info about lore, gameplay whatever.

Hermen Hulst pls

Looking forward to that too. Probably going to show up at Sonys because Mr. Warner Bros and Sony-San seem to be pals.

I just want to see what Ubisoft does with the next Watch_Dogs and Just Dance. I'm also very interested in The Rise of the Tomb Raider. Kingdom Hearts III/FFXV look also very promising. I just hope that the some of them were also announced for Wii U... KH 1+2 Remix HD and a KH3 announcement for Wii U would be just great. The game fits so well with Wii U's audience. It would be great to see at least a little bit of third-party support now that Wii U's first-party catalogue is improving a little bit.

Regarding Nintendo, I just hope they announce a new F-Zero, Mario Strikers, Nintendo Land/Wii Fit DLC, New original IP's, a new 3D Mario (not 3D World-related, please, I want either a new Galaxy or something totally new). A Wii U Pokémon would also be great. Not Pokken, but something even bigger and more complete. That would definitely move a lot of Wii U's and encourage some people that don't have one to make the jump. A new spectacular Wii U Metroid and a Zelda tease (with huge improvements over that gameplay video Aonuma and Miyamoto showed) would be the icing on the cake.

Imagine the killing Squeenix would make on Kingdom Hearts amiibos (Or Infinity figures, as it would probably be)
 
It will be all about VR...but nothing will be available on either console until next year. Much like Kinect, it will look somewhat promising but will fail due to miserable execution and system limitations with the current consoles.

I'd love it if Nintendo just hit us with a new F-zero game.

I'm secretly hoping they're testing the waters with the MK8 dlc tracks.

Infact if F-zero and Motorstorm were announced at E3 (both very unlikely) I'd be mad happy.

I am genuinely excited this year. I happen to look forward to every single press conference, the hype is real.

I really wonder what SE will focus on during their conference.....probably Eidos-heavy event for the Western market.

Bandai Namco will be showing an unannounced AAA at E3 too.....Soul Calibur VI? They even held a character popularity poll (Talim FTW) and said they were plotting "something huge", so it doesn't sound crazy.

Another topic of curiosity are remasters. We could be getting quite a number, but I wonder which ones will materialize and which won't (GIMME FFXII HD)

Oh and Rogue Galaxy should be revisited somehow, make it happen Level 5!!

As most of you hope and belive in GoW4 be shown, I would love to be like bellow.

It would be awesome seen an teaser where this happens:

"World in chaos. Storms, angry sea, heavy wind. You see a rock pathway with some blood on the ground, at the end of this pathway, a house.

The door have more blood into it. A glowing hand opens the door. Everything is dark inside, you can see only some silhouettes from a wooden desk, a bed, and a corpse.

The glowing person comes in. The place gets clear, but only a little around. When it get closer to the body, it's Kratos laying down on the bed, covered by blood, and still is dark enough to don't see his face clearly.

When the hand is about to touch Kratos, someone appears screaming: 'Don't you dear touch my Dad, Athena!'

It's Calliope, Kratos daughter saved by Nordic Gods on the verge of death."

That's what I predicted to be God of War 4 at God of War III Remastered Soon on PS4 topic.

(Might want to Snip some of that post, young Padawan Junior..)

It's already in Hearthstone. there are exclusive packs that you can get only by playing on an iOS or android device. (once you have them though you can use them on any platform, it's just an incentive.)

I think casual don't see a reason to buy Kinect 2 when they already have Kinect 1
That is true as well. Makes me wonder how it would have played out had they made the XBO backwards compatible with 360 games and peripherals instead of making a completely new kinect device.

The lack of games and the 499$ pricetag did hurt Kinect 2 a lot, though.

Wait. Why would Microsoft/Rare create a BK spiritual successor? They own the IP. They can just create a new entry. Anything else would be too weird.
 
I hope to see Shenmue 3 crowdfunding in Kickstarter with backer from PlayStation :p

I kinda wondered about that actually.. Why don't the big 3 use kickstarter as a way to see if there's enough audience for a project. Let's say Sony wants to do Legends of Dragoon 2 but is afraid that it might not sell enough. Why don't they start a kickstarter with a goal that would cover their eventual loss and pay the rest..? Let's say the game would cost 1 million and they kickstart it for 300.000. They would back the rest if the target is achieved. (I have no idea about game prices, this is just an example). Is this possible or is it against kickstarter policies? I mean, some people would donate waaay more then the cost if the game was just in the stoer. I've seen people donate 500-1000 bucks just to have their name as a character..

^ awesome gif by the way XD

1 million? How about 20 million as a starting point?

Also, it draws the biggest publishers into a rabbit hole of 'no way but down the hell's highway.'
 
Oups...as I said i have no clue about costs. No idea what you said meant lol.

If the idea that big budget AAA games can be kickstarted, or even partially funded via donation is an acceptable premise that wouldn't alienate the customers, then in the future, we'll be seeing E3 conferences where every publisher will have a Kickstarter announcement.
