I hope Nintendo talks about the NX, even if they said they wouldn't.

It's Zelda U and only Zelda U. Nothing else. Nothing. Don't fo this to yourself.
 
Microsoft making a comeback, Sony shitting the bed, Zelda conference, Konami reveals new gradius pachinko machine, Ubisoft uses 'iconic' at least 10 times, shows no new IPs, runs existing ones into the ground, EA reveals new sports games and new Battlefront content, Activision doubles down on Infinite Warfare and claims you can buy CoD4 remastered for the low price of only 50 dollars, From Software revealed to be working with Scamco on Ace Combat 7, which is actually going to be a not-macross game, and someone says 'Harmony FUCKING Gold.'

Expect PSVR.

Was getting caught part of your plan?
Red Dead 3

Cat's out of the bag so R* might as well.


All thanks to that naive Gaffer.

You're in luck
they won't have Paper Mario

MS will have drake, kanye or some other shitty raper on stage.

Kanye does have a new album coming out this year
lol
called "Turbo Grafx 16" and a game he was showing off at last years E3 so that might not be that far off.

....why do I want this so bad...
 
I'm expecting MS to just show off Gears 4, Scalebound, and Crackdown. I might trade in my X1 if this is true. Not worth it, rather get a PC since Crackdown might just come on there.
 
Bethesda: Doom support, Dishonored 2, next big Fallout 4 expansion, Skyrim HD, Prey 2, and/or MachineGames' next game.

EA: Battlefront DLC, teaser for one of the Star Wars games, Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2, sports games, racing game, and something along the lines of PvZ/Sims for a broader age range.

Ubisoft: Division content, Watch Dogs 2, For Honor, Ghost Recon, something aimed for a broader age range like Rabids, and one big reveal at the end - Splinter Cell?

Sony: PS4k, God of War 4, Sony Bend, small PSVR focus during the conference but bigger focus on the show floor, TLG release date, a remaster/collection, a tease of something farther out from one of their studios, and third party focus that features a WB reveal and Destiny Fall Expansion reveal..

Microsoft: More unified platform talk, possible Xbox 1.5, Gears 4, Crackdown, Rare's pirate game, more of the games announced last year like Recore, Halo 6 teaser?, and third party focus featuring Division content, Battlefield 1, and more.

Take-Two: Mafia 3 possibly at one of the conferences, Borderlands 3 teaser at a press conference?, and their annual titles. I don't expect Rockstar there at all.

Warner Bros: It's about time for Shadow of Mordor 2 and a DC game to be revealed, right? I expect one of them to show up at the Sony conference.

Square: Tomb Raider PS4, new Hitman info, new Deus Ex demo, more JRPG info.
 
....why do I want this so bad...

Because deep down inside, that's what everyone wants. They want to jet through the sky dodging Itano circuses, flying, stomping, shooting down missiles and other players.

They just don't know it yet, blinded as they are for the love of pale comparisons.

Sony show of dreams 2.0

MS brings the heat with gears and DLC Battletoads game that is fucking hard ass balls. COD is 1st on Xbox once again. Titanfall 2 is 1st on Xbox. RDR will be there.

Nintendo.... Zelda .... Zelda.... A WILD NX Conference appears the week before e3

I want GoW4 to be announced already with a trailer that showcases what the title is capable off and how it'll one-up PS4's horsepower. But I think Sony will hold off on that and show it at PSX 2016. We need a confirmation of the title as it's going to be 2.5 years since Cory first unofficially confirmed it during PSX 2014.
 
Dead Rising 4: 2017, Willamette/Frank West, Published by MS on xbox again

Ugh. Somehow they make every game worse than the previous one so this would be interesting to see where they deviate from what made Dead Rising great at one point. Hopefully Capcom moves onto a different IP.

Hmm.

Bethesda:

DISHONORED 2 GAMEPLAY IT LOOKS AMAZING AAAAAAA
Prey 2 shown, too.
Doom DLC?
Hoping for the new games from Machine Games/Tango, but i ain't expecting them to actually be there

Microsoft:

Quantum Break DLC. Horde mode or something (please, that combat system NEEDS this)
New Age of Empires shown. PC exclusive.
Class 4 announced. Looks great.
Crackdown 3 campaign gets shown. PLEASE, I WANT IT
MS goes even further on the unified platform stuff. Announces that a bunch of before XB1 exclusives are coming to PC with cross-buy/cross-play
Battletoads announced. Probably a smaller digital game.

But Dead Rising 2 is actually the best game in the series.

3 looks pretty bad, tho.

I also want to know what Volitions "Agents of Mayhem" is, if i had to guess i would say it's the title for the next Saints Row, which is either a spin off or prequel, not a direct sequel to 4 and not a new IP.

Hate how all the interesting shows are always during night/early morning hours in Finland. I'm not gonna stay up to watch them so I have to decide if I want to spoil myself and just check GAF during work or try to avoid reading anything online during work and watch the shows when I get home.

Also I hope we'll see/hear more of KH3 and/or P5

I'm most excited to see...

  • Ni No Kuni 2 release date and more details
  • Persona 5 release date and more details for the west
  • Horizon: Zero Dawn
  • Danganronpa 3 west release date
  • Surprises and new IPs
  • Dishonored 2 details
  • Any new game Bethesda has to show besides Dishonored 2

My dream list but unlikely...
  • Halo 3 for the PC
  • Red Dead Redemption 2/ Red Dead 3
 
• SEGA will show one noteworthy IP at Sonys press conference. (Rez, Yakuza, a new Shinobi)
• Crash Bandicoot reboot.
• God of War: Fall of Valhalla announced
• Nintendo gives the NX a name.
• Microsoft banks on nostalgia with a Battletoads game announcement.
• Kojima will emerge from a plume of dry ice fog and announce his new title with sparse details.

-- (what i hope to hear) --

• Rime is alive.
• Wild Guns: Reloaded is rad.
• Yooka Laylee is playable and spectacular.
• Startropics reboot.
• Konami's exorcism has expelled the demons from their company, returns to making games people love.
 
But Dead Rising 2 is actually the best game in the series.

3 looks pretty bad, tho.

Dead Rising 2 made a lot of cool improvements. It falls just short of being the best DR out there though. The setting was a hell of a lot worse, the psychos didn't feel as cool and it just felt easier overall.

Still though, it was pretty close. 3 takes the good things from DR2 and turns it into a different game completely. It barely resembles the first one in all the wrong reasons.

• SEGA will show one noteworthy IP at Sonys press conference. (Rez, Yakuza, a new Shinobi)

I don't think any of those games would warrant an E3 showing. Maybe Rez depending on how much time they devote to VR.

They wouldn't have secured battlefield co-marketing if either of those (COD, Titanfall) were true.

Hmm, i can see your point about the setting and the psychos, but the improvements on the gameplay were so good that, for me, it outranks the first one.

Both are amazing games, though.

Zelda is going disappoint everyone more than anything else Nintendo has done in the past 30 years

Microsoft with a soft relaunch of 'Xbox' and the Xbox One brand is pushed towards BC and limited marketing while they focus on the new brand. Still fully supported with titles and perhaps a slim but I can't help thinking they want to move on fast so maybe a price cut on Xbox One, phase it out and it's just replaced with the new Xbox.

State of Decay Big Edition.

Sony announce a new controller.

Sea of Thieves is awesome.
