Didn't see the new prediction template post, here's my answers for this one:
Will Sony have a replacement for the holiday season now that Uncharted and Ratchet are delayed?
I think there always was some game that was supposed to come out near Uncharted and revealed this E3, but nothing to "replace" it, no.
And no, Ratchet is not a big Holiday game.
What will the big show closers be?
MS: like last year, Phil thanking everyone and a big montage. Big game before that? New Gears.
Sony: Horizon or Uncharted. Possible montage as well.
Nintendo: Metroid or some Smash DLC.
Ubi: whatever their new IP they think is worth it this year.
S-E: is that a conference? FFXV
Bethesda: Fallout 4 teaser, certainly not releasing before 2016
EA: Battlefront big demo, like they did with Battlefield before.
Will Microsoft have another 3rd Party AAA moneyhat?
Don't like the term, but yes. Not a game that was supposed to be multiplat, exclusive from the ground up.
What will Ubisoft's bullshit fake demo be this year?
Won't say since I might know it, but the new IP they might decide to show at the end, as said above.
Will TLG show up this year?
This year, maybe, but certainly not at this E3.
Anything cool at the 3rd party shows?
S-E's western stuff (Deus Ex, Hitman, Tomb Raider, etc) will have great gameplay shown, and we might get some localizations
Bethesda's conference is disappointing, even for first timers standards
Lol Konami is just MGS, apologies and vague explanations
EA is like last year, but with games instead of prototypes
Ubi is even more cringe-worthy than usual. Still filled with plants
Nintendo?
wins again thanks to Treehouse, non disappointing stuff and a good all around show.
Other random nonsense.
Even more indies than usual that the big three will try to use as padding/support
Return of mid-tier devs/franchises
PC conference disappointing by not showing anything cool
Super secret show actually being good
Capcom and Namco somehow appear in every conference trying to show they are better than the other
some stuff behind closed doors leaks.
