Took E3 week off of work. Can´t have work get in the way.
All the booze and fast food. It´s a celebration.

Only if they have the Sunset City song filling my eardrums while it accompanies the announcement trailer.

Nice that M$ E3 show is Europe friendly once more 
Hope they will drop some bombs that we did not now or that will not leak shortly before. It's always way more fun to see the stuff at the show.
Forza Horizon 3 and Gears 4 are obviously going to be the main thing. But I actually hope we get big Gears4 reveals pre show so that they only put in a trailer with some live gameplay, make it last 7 mins tops and move on to new stuff.

Yeah, seems to be the same schedule as always. We Euros can watch the MS conference after work and have to stay up all night to get Sony's.

With EA out of the way, I hope Ubi and Sony do their PC early, just for us poor European people. Sony is always brutal at that time.

After transitioning from Higher Education to Workplace life, I now watch Sony at work on my second monitor because it is indeed rough on Europe. No checking RSS or Facebook before doing that though, don't want anything spoiled.
Maybe M$ wants Europe to see their stuff and Sony wants the same for the US.

...and no COD guys, that's like an extra 6-8 minutes
Of course. In the interest of time.

But we will get some Madden/Fifa stuff (unfortunately) in addition to EAs showing. :-(
The way I see it, if Sony do indeed show us the PS4k this E3, Microsoft have one of two ways to go:
1) Rush that Xbox One+ along
2) Double down on their upcoming titles on Windows 10
Either way, I'm hopeful they have enough new titles to convince me I need an Xbox One (Or, indeed, put all their titles on Windows 10 since the two will inevitably become one). Banjo-Threeie is the dream, but I am looking forward to seeing more of Sea of Thieves, Scalebound, ReCore and Halo Wars 2.
Phantom Dust re-reveal, Alan Wake 2 and a refined Sunset Overdrive sequel would make the sale no question.
Bring back Fusion Frenzy, also.

Crackdown gameplay, Scalebound gameplay, ReCore gameplay, new footage from Inside, a stellar Gears demo and a new trailer for Cuphead that shows the platforming is all I need.
Is Cuphead not entirely a boss rush game?

Apparently they are adding some platforming sections to the game, which would explain the delays.
Ah yes Sea of Thieves. Excited for that. I wonder if we'll ever see another Banjo Game. Nuts'n'Botls did;t go down too well - i loved it but there you go - and i wonder if that put them off it.
Be interesting to see how the new Ratchet does on PS4 especially at the lower price. Hopefully it will sell well - its reviewing well - and encourage them to make more.
Now, how do we get a Fable 4 out of them...?
Will Titanfall 2 take the COD slot?
Ha me too!
It will be a week of videogames!
.... yea......
Depending on how well Yooka Laylee and Crash do, as well as Ratchet & Clank, we will see a bigger Banjo 3. I think we will inevitably see a third true Banjo title at some point, but the scale and scope will be dependant on if the platformer resurgence truly takes off.
What? Where is it?
Totally with you - it feels like 3D platforms are about to make a renaissance but. as you correctly say, it needs something to break through first.
See, Doffen, Microsoft are doing something for Europe.
You can't fool me. Microsoft does it to hit the morning news in US.

Just can't wait ! I should tell my boss I won't be at work on june 13th afternoon (Europe here) !
Really want a Xbox One VR Edition, please MS, make it happen ! Maybe VR is what Banjo-Kazooie needs to innovate the old formula ?
New Xbox One and "Sea of Thieves beta is coming later TODAY, for Xbox Preview Members !". Well, we know that Sea of Thieves will be playable on the showfloor since Rare is doing a contest to be "the first in the world to play the game in May".
Also can't wait for the new Playground Forza, Crackdown 3, Halo Wars 2, Recore and Gears 4. Happy Xbox Player here

Better to announce the new xbox with full oculus rift support at the e3.
If I recall, the Nintendo World Championship is usually on Monday, before their E3 presentation.

Damn....people actually expecting a Banjo announcement when Sea Of Thieves isn't even finished yet? No way in hell is that going to happen. Would love to be wrong though. Same as Alan Wake 2, quite soon after QB's release and i really doubt it. If anything from Remedy it will be QB related. I sure hope so because i want MORE. Plus it seems quite up in the air what's going to happen with AW2 in terms of Remedy and MS having another deal. I sure hope so.
Finally getting a good look at Sea of Thieves should be nice, hopefully it's something to look forward to from Rare, it's been too long. Hopefully finally some damn Recore footage, because it's just getting crazy really. It will be a year since it's announcement and we still have seen exactly zero screenshots and footage. If not at E3 and/or GC, i don't think it'll ever come out.
Phil Spencer recently said Xbox will have a nice E3. Nothing like 'greatest lineup in Xbox history'' like last year. Perhaps he's trying to keep expectations low and realistic or intentionally, so that they can drop a bomb during the show. Who knows.

If they went super old school with Banjo and made the game with a team of 15-20 people like they did the first game, and made it play like the originals but with fairly updated visuals and downloadable rather than full priced, it's totally possible! That's the dream.

Thank you for this, Volotaire, I have it now bookmarked. Much appreciated.
Last year Nintendo announced it's E3 2015 plans on May 13. This year I think their announcement could come as early as April 27/28 in conjunction with their FY 2015 Fiscal Year Earnings Release/News conference/Financial Results Briefing.
As for Microsoft, I'm excited to hear about a potential Xbox One.5. Scalebound and new Forza iterations are also of my interest.
