This was inspired by Podcast Beyond doing their annual predictions, and I started thinking about what I would say if I were on the Podcast.
1. Persona 5 will release concurrently on PS3 and Vita- Surprisingly, I feel this is the safest prediction of my three. I very much doubt SEGA are going to look at those P4G sales on Vita then continue to bank on previous gen only. That just does not sound like their go.
2. The Order: 1886 will be delayed until either December 2014 or early 2015 - I'm thinking this game will have to be extensively showcased in the second quarter before and during E3 in order for it to be iron clad for this year. The fact we've seen virtually nothing this long after it was announced is probably not a good sign. If it does get delayed, it will absolutely ravage Sony's lineup for the latter half of the year.
3. Playstation Now won't launch on time in the U.S - I share this one with the Beyond guys. Sony are obviously banking a lot on this service so they're going to want it to work as perfectly as possible. If they feel they need to delay it, they will.
EDIT Honorable mention: Sony will officially announce the "indefinite shelving" (read: cancellation) of The Last Guardian.
