Last of Us 2 is definitely happening.
I'm exited for good platformers as much as the next guy, but I think Crash Bandicoot is a dead brand. Who's asking for another one outside of the internet?

Yup something is obviously happening with crash. They weren't even allowed to put him in their art book what like a year ago? Whether its a new game,classics or HD remasters crash is doing something
Yessssssss, can't wait
There once was a man from Nantucket
Who saw our marketing schedule and said "Fuck it"
Show all that we know
Makes for great shows
Dreams 2.0, better lock it
Off the top of my head. Eat that, marketing....
Now you have me curious over what this comment was!

This is the first E3 where I could careless for some surprises or bombs.
Final Fantasy XV is being released
Pokémon Sun and Moon is being released a couple months later.
Persona 5 should get a release date at E3 considering Japan's release date was recently announced.
I would love an update on Mass Effect Andromeda.
I'm just at a point where I just want to play the games I've waited so long to play more than I want to be surprised with other stuff.

They put him in the art book but the Activision copyrights are there. It's that they forbade them from using Crash in promotional stuff for the ND 30th Anniversay. He also wasn't in PSABAR.

I'm OK with only 1 or 2 new games counting Sony Bend. I expect to leave E3 with a lot but for MS to buy up most of the marketing deals.
Sony:
NNK2: Reverent Kingdom
More Horizon ZD
Dead Don't Ride
Indies
TLG release date
Suckerpunch Spider-Man
Uncharted 4 DLC
Persona 5
Drawn to Death released during the show
I'm still erect over last year so that's OK.

You shouldn't expect to see the PS4 version of TR in anything except montages at Sony's conference. It'll probably pop up at Square's press conference if they do one this year.
Haven't heard that one before.
Before you start complaining. Prepare yourself to see COD (of course they will show this. IT'll sell systems), Destiny, Watch Dogs 2 and any other 3 parts marketing deal they have.

What do you guys think...Horizon this year or early next?
Arguments for next year
- Shinobi said so
- We've seen very little of the game
- Sony's been delaying all of their major games and seem to prefer Spring for exclusives
Arguments for this year
- They haven't delayed it yet. Hadn't they delayed Uncharted 4 by this point last year? I would think announcing a delay before E3 would make the most sense so E3 doesn't bring any bad news.
- The French ad saying 2016 in the Uncharted 4 box.

free the Crash
I fail to see how they could ever possibly top last year. Last year was basically them bringing the dreams of things that would never happen come true. They would have to reanimate ODB on stage and have him rap with a hologram of parappa as their announcement to be able to top last year.
That being said, I am excited to see what they will be showing. They are firmly in the drivers seat now, and I hope they put the naysayers down by showing them that by being in front it does not mean they are going to stop trying to get better. Frankly gaming and the Playstation brand is the most important (or maybe second most) part of Sony, no way can they sit back on their laurels.

I wouldn't count on the last argument for this year. Some ads for Watch Dogs, when it was going to be November, said something like "2 months is long enough in Los Santos. Come to Chicago." Those came out like 2 weeks before it was delayed. (IIRC)
Any delay can be made at the last minute. Whether Sony will is the question.
My guess is they'll show a trailer w/o a release date and then delay it in August or September.

I know not a lot of people care about it, but I'd have a meltdown on the scale of FF7/Shenmue fans if they announced SOCOM 1/2 HD with online play.

This is intentional. Guerrilla have said that they feel that some mystery in games is lost nowadays with developers showing so much before their release. So they're intentionally withholding info and footage.
I don't think they necessarily prefer Spring, I just think they're one of the publishers that have realized that Fall isn't the end all be all like other publishers treat it. There's no reason to stuff so many major releases into two months of the year. So if they have to delay the game then so be it. I think we're going to start seeing more games spread out through the year instead of everything being so focused on the holidays.
I could see it being delayed. They've never been 100% committed to 2016 in the first place. It's their target, but it's not something they're going to push if it's not ready. Yoshida stated after DRIVECLUB's launch issues that they don't want that to happen again, so delays are okay if they're needed. People complained about Uncharted 4's delays, but given its quality I don't think anyone has an issue with those delays now.
And all of those will be released on a cost of Horizon's delay
holiday Sony will strike again yay!

I agree with you, I guess MS has the Battlefield deal so Sony will have COD.
I don't get why Ubisoft even has a stage show because half their games are going to be on the Microsoft stage and the other half the games are going to be on the Sony stage

I'm also prepared for the massive marketing push from Activision and Ubisoft during the press conference.
Haha quality post. Insult two types of people in one small post. A+

I can guarantee at least 12 copies sold between me and my clan who I am still friends with from when we played. We have been begging for this to happen forever,its insane how Sony continues to give this the cold shoulder.
Do you know if Horizon has been delayed? If it is it's because the game needs more time. Sony has shown they don't mind 3rd parties bearing the load for the Holiday and the consumer has shown they don't mind either.
Personall I don't want Horizon, a new IP to go up against COD, BF1, Destiny, Watch Dogs, Gears 4 etc.
