E3 2015 - Outrageous Predictions For Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo

Where's that amazing post someone made last year that also made it on reddit? It involved gabe newell descending onto the stage from a helicopter.
 
Sony and Nintendo will announce a joint handheld. Sony will be responsible for basically everything about it but Nintendo will slap their name on it so that people will actually buy it. Also full Vita backwards compatability and an Android OS.
 
You mean Microsoft - the last guardian
You mean "Nintendo - The Last Guardian"

Microsoft - Xbox 360 mini. Discless 360 that adds BC to the One. Also works stand alone. $99

Sony - MGS5 announced as outright exclusive

Nintendo - Another Bayo 2 style funded exclusive announced. Maximo 3.
 
Microsoft announces all upcoming Xbox One games will be playable on Windows 10 with free online services, unlike the console counterparts.

Phil Spencer comes on stage, approaches an Xbox One on a stand, and magically pulls a sledgehammer out of his pocket, destroying the console. He reaches into the rubble and pulls from the rubble a Windows 10 box, then swallows it whole.

Microsoft announces they're entering the clothing business, their flagship product being bottomless bag pocket denim pants. Audience applause is out of control.

Also Last Guardian launches this November.
 
All the conferences will be awful (again), GAF will get super excited over some tech demo (again).

"We have an exciting announcement for all of you hardcore gamers out there. We understand that in the past we may have focused too hard on trying to win mass appeal, but we want you back.
Because of this, we have partnered with the geniuses at From Software to bring you a new game, exclusively for the WII U. Please, sit back and enjoy our new reveal for the fantastic, incredible...

ENCHANTED ARMS 2 "

Then Iwata comes on stage and announces they're now making games exclusively for PS4.

Time to remove the shackles of conservatism and embrace the hype train. My updated predictions for the keynote:

Show opens with a trailer for new Crash. Thunderous applause.
The applause transitions into screams as Jack Tretton, who has been temporarily reinstated as head of SCEA for 2 hours, takes the stage to MC the event.
Announces a PS4 price-drop to $149. All existing PS4 owners are gifted $200 into their PSN accounts as a thank you to launch-window buyers. Can barely hear him over the screams.
The lights dim as a trailer for Horizon, now named 'Emagon' is shown. The graphical fidelity of the dinosaurs causes several attendees to become hysterical. Paramedics take them away and call for backup.
The SEGA logo illuminates the screen. Shenmu 1 & 2 HD collection announced, bundled freely with Shenmu 3, exclusive to PS4.
Kojima takes the stage. MGS5 now PS4 exclusive. MGS 1, 2 and 3 to be remade in the Fox Engine for PS4. As is Snatcher. Norman Reedus and Del Toro join him on stage for a 10 minute gameplay demo of Silent Hills. Tears stream down the faces of the audience the entire time.
Boyes sprints on stage dressed as Santa Claus, complete with Santa’s Sack. ‘I have some more gifts for you” he says, causing uncontrollable trembling in all present.
Suikoden I & II are available for download NOW on PSN, including optional fully orchestrated soundtrack.
Did somebody say Dino Crisis 4? Yes. Adam Boyes did, JUST NOW. He makes an awkward joke about PS4 being the undisputed home of dinosaurs. The reveal trailer shows Regina in a mech-suit fighting a T-Rex, 12 Raptors and a misguided Stegosaurus atop a mountain during a hurricane.
Boyes drops his Santa Sack on the floor and opens it. Shinji Hashimoto jumps out. The audience has been crying for so long that large swaths of people are losing brain function due to low salt-levels.
He doesn’t need to ask people to please be excited; there isn’t a dry seat in the room. New trailer shown for Kingdom Hearts. Mandy Moore is back as Aerith. FFXV world map shown, and 2015 release date revealed. “One more thing.” Audience holds its breath. FFVII HD remaster trailer shown. PS4 exclusive. Many audience members forget to resume breathing. The death count is getting out of control.
Amid the chaos, Chris Metzen takes the stage. PS4 exclusive Starcraft Ghost revealed. Paramedics have to restrain a man from clawing his own eyes out, such is the intensity of the reveal trailer.
Tretton takes the stage, visibly shaken by the carnage before him. But the show must go on. Let’s talk about firmware (it’s a Sony conference). Suspend resume available next week. PSN name changes sorted out, PS2 trophy support.
A turnbuckle and wrestling ropes rise from the stage, and Shu rushes towards it and reaches over with his outstretched hand. Tretton tags him in.
Medieval, Dark Cloud, Syphon Filter, Colony Wars and Wip3out have all been green-lit for PS4 games. The amount of happening in the room is causing cracks to appear in the walls of the theatre.
Kratos appears on screen. He's fighting the Gods of ancient Norse mythology. Trailer concludes with him disembowling Odin with a Dane Axe.
Naughty Dog logo appears. First footage of the Uncharted movie is shown. Wow, they really nailed the casting of Drake. Hang on. No? It couldn’t be? It’s actually photo-realistic 60fps 1080p gameplay footage of Uncharted 4. The stress of seeing UC4 gameplay causes a woman in the front row to go into premature labour. She wasn’t even pregnant when the show began.
Tretton thanks people for attending and watching at home. They still have new gameplay of Bloodbourne, The Order, No Man’s Sky, EGTTR, Rime, Wild, The Witness, Shadow of the Beast and more, but emergency rooms are at breaking point. Too much hype has been spilled this day.
“Oh, just one more thing”
The Last Guardian lives. Chunks of concrete fall from the ceiling, crushing those below. The room can’t handle all of the feels pulsating out of gamers as they bask in the glory of the gameplay trailer. The audience is too transfixed to run. When the June 2015 launch date is revealed the internet as we once knew it is dead. People watching at home scramble to put batteries in CB radios, hoping to pick up military chatter about the PSX event.
Only one attendee remains alive in the theatre. His glasses shattered while watching Sora, Donald and Goofy wage battle with Prince Hans, sparing his eyes from what followed. Scrambling over the corpses in the theatre, he takes refuge under a desk with Jack Tretton.
“Is it over?” he asks Jack tentatively.
“Yes” sighs Jack. “Well, except for one more thing”
The roof explodes, allowing a helicopter to lower someone down onto the stage.
It’s Gaben. Half-life 3 confirmed. Console exclusive on PS4. Available for download on Steam and PS4 RIGHT NOW.

If it eventuates it’d only be a solid 7/10 show because no Mass Effect or Fallout.
 
Microsoft announces that all peripherals that have win 10 support will also be supported on Xbox One including kb/mouse, game pads, driving wheels and VR headsets.

Microsoft announces halo 5 is going F2P.

Rare doesn't show anything.

Nintendo anounces new handheld that plays WiiU games.

Sony anounce thier own Linux based gaming operating system with PSN store integration.
 
Insiders will be overwhelmingly correct for the first time this gen by being quiet because nothing of note happens.
 
Batman of the Future announced by Warner with exclusive thing to Ps4. Maybe not outrageous, but now that the Arkham Trilogy is going to end, i would love to see Rocksteady/WB Montreal work on this next.
 
Sony:
- Announce PS3 hyper slim, now at the size of PS2 slim. Note that noise level is equivalent to jet engine and you could actually grill something on it now. Oil and water proofed. Audiences could sample fresh grilled meat provided at the sides of the room.
- Announce PSV super slim, with a lighter weight obviously. OLED screen comes back and introduce new firmware version 4.0 codenamed 4theniche. Added multi account for Vita and battery life is 10x PSV2000. Memory card 1TB were introduced and included for free with new model.
- Now for PS4 annoucement, Yoshida comes up on the stage and says "PS4 has no games(for this winter)" and goes back backstage.
 
Not sure if these are "outrageous," but I'd say they're pretty unlikely.

Microsoft:
Thatgamecompanys game is on display - Timed Windows 10 (PC/Xbox) exclusive
The power of the cloud is real, it's coming to more games, and people want it

Sony:
There is only one prediction to make here, as other have said - The Last Guardian

Nintendo:
Nintendo leverages their partnership with Sega to bring Shenmue 3 as an exclusive
 
Nintendo, shockingly, will do a conference.

The conference, like most Nintendo E3 showing will be a bit of everything. After the countdown, Miyamoto jumps on stage holding a Wii U gamepad and everyone cheers as he introduces Bill Trinen with a hilarious gut busting joke in broken English! Fantastic, Mr Miyamoto, you're the best! We'll start off with a length demo of Zelda U where Link fights a boss on Epona in the main field, which is a giant bear wearing armoured plating. Miyamoto will tell us that this bear is fought many times over the course of the game, much like the imprisoned, and plays a key role in the story. Then we'll get some usual stuff about sales and growth, highlighting key areas such as Europe and the Americas. After this we'll get some throwaway examples of things coming to the 3DS and Wii U, indie games like Meme Run, Bear Simulator, etc. Next we'll see Fire Emblem if, and they'll show off the new mounted unit, the bear rider. At this point everyone will be asking themselves, "Where's Metroid?" or perhaps, "Is this it?" Boom! Metroid U announced, side scrolling 2.5D Metroid with twin stick controls, the reveal trailer oddly backed by the sound of the Barenaked Ladies. Why? Who knows, really. Finally, before it's all over and after Nintendo shows off a bunch of things bearly anyone cares about, Iwata comes on stage to talk about a legendary IP that Nintendo has reacquired. That's right, Banjo Kazooie is back in the hands of Nintendo! The developer of the first new Banjo game of this generation? Playtonic games! The original Rare people making a new Banjo game gets the crowd of journalists excited and raring for more. Iwata begins to talk us into the end of the conference, Reggie and Miyamoto join him on stage, Miyamoto holding a katana and Reggie a big red button. The crowd is confused, nobody knows whether or not to be excited or confused. Iwata grabs the red button in one hand and the katana in the other. He places the button on the floor in front of him and unsheathes the katana. "Nintendo has had a bad few years with our current hardware, Wii U and 3DS, and I'm sure you have all noticed a theme with what we have shown today. Before we finish this conference today, I would like to announce that this is the last year that Nintendo will be operating as a hardware developer, and as a software developer. I am, however, finding this difficult to accept. As I mentioned before, there was a theme with all our the software we have shown today, did you notice it? If not, I don't think you'll be able, much like me, to bear the future of Nintendo. So, in conclusion, I ask you to join me in wishing a big goodbye to Nintendo." Iwata readies the katana, pointing the blade at his stomach. He thrusts it through his stomach, lets go of the hilt, and slams both hands on the big red button as he slumps onto his knees. Suddenly, loud thumping footsteps are heard, and 50 bears storm the conference hall from an opening under the stage. People are screaming as they run for the doors. Miyamoto and Reggie hold each other crying, "We're sorry!", over and over as journalists discover that the doors have been locked. The bears can smell the fear and it's not long until they begin mauling Ben Kuchera, Jason Schreier, Dan Ryckert, and Patrick Klepek. With his dying breath, just before the bears turn to notice him and the pool of blood developing around the feet of Miyamoto and Reggie, Iwata utters with his dying breath, echoed through the hall's sound system:

"Please understand."
 
My Microsoft Conference Predictions by DryvBy

Phil Spencer gets off the toilet but is still keeps that constipated look on his face. He looks in the mirror and tells himself, "I can do this. Yeah. Piece of cake.". He withdraws a small vile from his pocket and pours some of the cocaine on the counter. He snorts a line just in time for someone to knock on the bathroom door.

"Mr. Spencer, it's time," says a mysterious voice.

Phil puts his jacket on and walks out to be greeted with a shot of vodka. He wipes his mouth on a $3 bill and mentally preps himself. "Do it. Do it. Do iiiiittt!". With the crowds cheering louder than before, Phil walks out on stage with his hands in his pockets and a half-smile. He clears his throat in a grunt and begins.

"It's an exciting time to be apart of the Xbox community this year. With exciting games already announced for this holiday including Rise of the Tomb Raider and Halo 5, we're also excited to announce another furry creature that will be arriving this year exclusively on Xbox One and Xbox 360."

On the screen behind Phil shows an Xbox logo for a few seconds before you hear a gas-powered chainsaw start up. The chainsaw is placed at the top of the X and in a downward motion, the X is cut in two and in the shadows behind a red squirrel walks between the debris.

The crowd erupts! Everyone is cheering and throwing their iPads in the air. Phil now has a single hand out of his pocket and is making a fist extended slightly outward as if he's giving a Powerpoint presentation. After a moment to build the hype, he begins again.

"We're excited to announce that Conker will be appearing exclusively on the Xbox One and Xbox 360 as a special edition avatar for those who pre-order Battletoads." Phil begins clapping and mouths the words "Thank you" to the crowd. The crowd halts it's cheers and you hear a lot of confused expressions. Then there's a sudden burst of dubstep as a montage of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Halo: Master Chief Collection, Battlefield: Hardline, and Sunset Overdrive footage. The audience is even more confused? "This isn't new!", someone in the audience shouts out.

Phil continues to smile and clap by himself. People start walking out. Phil begins with the same emphasis in his voice.

"I guess you guys want to see something new? How about new-old? How about some Battletoads? For the first time that I can remember, here's an exclusive sneak-peak at the development for the new Battletoads game coming exclusively to the Xbox One and Xbox 360 and Xbox original.".

The lights dim and the screen is dark for a a coupe of minutes. The crowd believes there's some technical difficulties in the back. And by the time the mind starts thinking about getting a beer or just going home, the screen lights up the room with a single image.

battletoads-in-battlemaniacs-usa.png


The stage light is lit up to display Phil holding an NES controller and a random stage person. The crowd begins booing. "This is clearly an NES, Phil!!". Phil continues to half-smile and plays the NES, ignoring the boos. Then something strange happens. Phil begins walking away from the area he was standing and the end of the NES controller isn't even plugged in! Phil quits trying. He puts his right hand in his pocket and starts thanking people with his mouth. The other guy puts the controller down and scurrys off the stage.

"Remember this is only coming to the Xbox. This holiday season." Dub step. Again. This time it's all Halo 5 footage. Master Chief is battling a lizard of some sort. Another spartan is using a sledge hammer to tunnel through a wall. There's guns everywhere, even on the sledgehammer. Then the music stops. Master Chief takes off his helmet for an entire 15 seconds. The face revealed is... Conker?!

"Buggers. Where am I, and what am I doing in space?". The crowd is confused. No one even knows what to do. Should they boo? Should they cheer? Phil starts up his mouth again.

"This fall we're excited to announce an exclusive everyone has been begging for since we first bought Rare. You will finally be able to play as your favorite alcoholic squirrel." Phil mouths his thank yous again. The crowd begins cheering again. Was the intro a joke? More cheering and more and more and... "That's right. Conker will be an exclusive character in the exclusive Xbox One title, Halo 5.". He then walks off stage and some more dub step music plays with another montage of Call of Duty and Halo and the word "Exclusive" popping up randomly all over the screen.

Sony reveals that the Last Guardian...was inside us all along. Thousands of people are then rushed to ER's, where surgeons remove Blu-rays from their chest cavities.
 
Will probably be the same as last E3, gameplay from games already announced before the show. There will be new game announcements but they'll be CGI trailers, and maybe some gameplay trailers for early 2016 titles if we're lucky.

I expect MS and Sony to copy Nintendo's approach with the tree house, they'd be dumb not to.

I think EA will have the best show honestly. They didn't show anything last E3, I imagine a good portion of their projects are presentable by now. Battlefront will be their headliner.


All the conferences will be awful (again), GAF will get super excited over some tech demo (again).

ffffff, so true. Most announcements are done throughout the year.
 
Shinji Hashimoto appears on the Sony stage to a crowd of people giving him deathstares in total silence. The GAF contingent had to be held down to avoid a stage invasion. Before he could speak and dig himself further into a hole he is joined by Gio Corsi and the Final Fantasy VII logo appears on the screens behind.

Gio address the crowd, "I hope you enjoyed our trolling we did last December. But today, we announce a full ground up remake of the PS1 classic Final Fantasy VII, with our partners Square Enix and Sony Japan Studios this lifetime PS4 exclusive will take you back to one of the PS1 eras greatest RPG's."

A trailer then plays redeeming Hashimoto and Square Enix.

Before Hashimoto leaves the stage he turns to the crowd "I have one more surprise from Square Enix" The Rise of the Tomb Raider trailer begins to play. "It will launch day and date with the Xbox version" and without further word leaves the stage.
 
Microsoft announces an enhancement to SmartGlass that will allow you to stream X1 games to all devices with the SmartGlass app.

Nintendo announces it's next console: a device that projects holograms from your coffee table and doesn't require a television.
 
Microsoft's conference will have little video clips in between each game anounce like last year, only this time all the interviewed people will be talking about how awesome Phil Spencer is, and at the end of the conference, Phil reveals that he is running for president!

I would pay any amount of money for this.
 

Your portrayal of Phil Spencer seems much more in line with what Don Matrick was during conferences, personally I like Phil's personality and stage presence. I know these are supposed to be joke posts, but this would have made more sense if you brought Matrick back as the head of Xbox so that it would fit together ;)
 
PS4 Price Drop now $249.99 with 1 yeah of PS+

New Ratchet and Clank trilogy announced: Dr. Nefarious is back!

Fallout 4: Boston PS4 / PC exclusive

Some+men+just+want+to+watch+the+world+burn+_503995b2ff1d4cc5063bae750b113927.png
 
The highlight of Sonys PK will be the Order 189. You will play a 189 years old Jesus who will fight against dragon-vampire-humans.
The game will be extremely cinematic and therefore 2 1/2 long.
 
Microsoft announces that they have acquired all of Sega's IP's and studios. And the first big project, Shenmue 3.
 
Nintendo announces the next handheld.

It's a gimpled Wii U architecture and fully compatible with it. The Wii U games run on it and vice versa. Wii U is saved
 
Microsoft announces that they have acquired all of Sega's IP's and studios. And the first big project, Shenmue 3.

As long as we get a PSO ver 1&2 remaster or PSO 2 in the US I don't care who buys SEGA IPs at this point. Someone just make it happen! Added bouns is obviously all of the other long dormant franchises or still produced franchises that are so far from living up to their legacies. There is nothing worse than a new Sonic being announced and knowing in your bones that it won't possibly be any good at all.
