Last year was all about dropping bombshells, while I expect a few to be at this year' E3, I figure it will focus more on getting people' interest into their games using gameplay footage.

Really looking forward to finally getting a gameplay walkthrough of Mass Effect: Andromeda, they really need one to reassure fans that the game is coming along just fine regardless of people leaving/already left since Mass Effect 3.

Also looking forward to see if Infinite Warfare will drop a bombshell and having much of the campaign features survive into multiplayer, making it a real contender with Battlefield WW1.

 

[Smokey_Run]

Ah crap, I didn't even know there's another expansion coming. Has that been confirmed? I know they had more listed in that leaked roadmap but I thought they scrapped that.

The last Activision investor call.

 

[-Horizon-]

Even if nintendo isn't really there, still hyped for Zelda and Persona 5 and whatever else sony has to show.

 

[Anarky]

Man ever since Nintendo said no NX at E3 my hype has dropped dramatically.

 

[eerik9000]

Given ND's game output (games per gen) since PS3, I doubt they'll show us anything new this year. Hope for new info about their next project in 2017.

Naughty Dog released a new game every other year on PS3. The Last of Us was announced just a month after Uncharted 3 launch and was released 18 months later. Based on that and how early games are announced nowadays, they could definitely announce a new game at E3. That being said, I hope they don't. I don't think they can deliver a new game in late 2017 (as fast as TLOU) after UC4's troubled development and the departure of Amy Hennig and others. Please don't announce games that aren't going to be released before 2018. But who am I kidding, we'll probably get a bunch of games announced from all major publishers that are 2+ years away from release.

 

[Jameson]

Can't wait to see what MS and Sony have up their sleeves!

 

[Stairouais]

Hope we'll somehow get a release date for DQ VII and VIII on 3ds during Square Enix conf.

 

[Sotha_Sil]

This is the E3 of Deus Ex, Mass Effect, and Dishonored 2 for me. Sadly, I don't expect to see CDPR or Obsidian present.

 

[crackhead_bob]

I'm going to be out of the country during E3, so my question is what publishers do I type up on youtube to catch me up the following week.

I'm assuming that Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft are the no brainers. Ubisoft and Electronic Arts as well, but what other publishers hold floor conferences at E3, and are they posted on youtube for later view? And what media outlet is best to go with? Ign, Gamespot, Game Informer?

 

[ChackanKun]

Would love to see some new Shenmue 3 stuff. Even if to be sure the project isnt dead :|

 

[Smoolio]

Is the time set yet for Sony press conference? Has to be the 12th or 13th right, no chance of the 14th yeah?

 

[ckohler]

I also want to know so I can schedule time off. When is the Sony conference?

No confirmed Sony time but from last year it is likely it will be on the 13th (in PT terms).

At the moment the current schedule is looking like this (update):

To be confirmed

Sony: Usually Monday, (June 13) - 18:00 P.M. PT/ 02:00 BST
Square Enix: Will they have one this year?

NO Nintendo (apart from treehouse).

BST = UK Summer Time.

 

[Humdinger]

Here's what I'm interested in seeing:

Microsoft
•Scalebound
•Sea of Thieves
•Don Mattrick Simulator
•NeoGaf Auto-blamer
•New hardware
•Some new big surprise. Come on, wow me, Phil.

Sony
•Persona 5, with release date for the west, plus weird Japanese sh*t
•PSVR and its catalog - it's E3, just before launch; they need to sell it
•Crash Bandicoot reboot (heavily rumored) -- after enjoying Ratchet & Clank so much, I'm up for this
•Horizon Zero Dawn
•Spiderman (Sucker Punch)
•No Man's Sky, even though I'm overdosed on footage already
•Nier: Automata, with weird drunken Japanese developer sh*t
•The Last Guardian (got to be a release date at this point, hopefully not 2017)
•Detroit: Become Human
•New God of War
•WiLD
•Tomb Raider (PS4 holiday exclusive!) - curious if they've done anything with it
•What Remains of Edith Finch
•Star Ocean V
•PS4 Neo. I'm happy with my PS4 and don't see the need to upgrade, but I'd like to hear what their plans are.

Nintendo
•Zelda footage and hands-on gameplay impressions

Other
•Mass Effect: Andromeda -- this is my most anticipated game of 2017, so I'd love to hear/see more about it.

 

[natuKo]

Depend on what they show on God of War 4, they need to change a lot to impress us like the first 3 games since the formula is fatigue now. And I don't know why people are expecting RDR2 at E3. The first RDR was only in a montage and it's not like Rockstar bother with E3 in the past outside of a remaster

EA dropped out of E3, Take Two (publisher of 2K/Rockstar) have stepped in and were quoted to be making a huge show this year. Red Dead, Bully, Mafia 3, Ken Levine's game.

 

[Corpsepyre]

So, how many press conferences do we have this year? Is EA showing up?

 

[GutsOfThor]

I hope we'll see Dynasty Warriors 9 at E3!

Is Sony going to do the movie theater showing again?

 

[est1992]

Hoping Sony announced their press conference soon. I'm really hoping to hear something about that Spider-Man Sucker Punch game, God of War, and whatever WB has planned(they usually show off their games at Sony's conference).

Really? I haven't heard about that. Could be massive if true.

Saw rumors come about regarding Ken Levine's game and the new Red Dead has had countless rumors so I'm hoping it actually shows up. But where are you getting Bully from? I think I recall a trademark getting renewed recently but is that it?

 

[Zukkoyaki]

Fingers crossed for Ken Levine's game. It's been three years since Irrational Games shut down and he formed his team. It feels like it's time to finally see what they've been working on. I do remember hearing that it's a "small-scale open world" akin to something like Deus Ex with alot of options.

I am sorry if this is not right place to post it but I don't know where else should I post it XD

I am making E3 Stream banners this year again I think that design is good enough (i will maybe change few minor things like background pattern) and i am waiting for PlatStation conference time so i can finish that one too. And if you have any suggestions feel free to post them

I don't know who is in charge for official E3 thread but if you want feel free to use these. Just contact me so I can give you finished thing (I will cut them, upload and link properly when all dates are finalized and when I get all stream links).

Any word on Keighley doing a stream this year?

Not yet as far as I know, last year the announcement came on June 2nd.

Are the stream dates and times on these banners correct? I can't find a source for the Sony time for the life of me.

 

[FTF]

I feel like this years E3 is going to be a little disappointing. Announcements of God Of War 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2 aren't interesting enough.

That would be enough for me!

I'm easy to please.

 

[WouldYouKindly]

Honestly just want a crackdown 3 realse date with both games bc the day of e3

 

[Corpsepyre]

That would be enough for me!

I'm easy to please.

Have a feeling they won't announce GoW4 yet.

 

[innervision961]

Guys what if GabeN saves E3 this year with Half Life 3 / Portal 3 / Team Fortress 3 / L4D3 3BOX... Guys?....

 

[troy-X]

All I want is a Crash announcement. Anything will do.

 

[Schryver]

Yeah somehow I think it's still too early unless they just do a crappy teaser. I'm looking forward to a Last Guardian release date the most actually. Other than that I wanna see more PSVR and whatever Bend is working on. Banjo is my dream announcement lol

 

[Hylian7]

So is there any chance of Nintendo announcing anything? There is no conference or Digital Event, and the only playable game will be Zelda. They did say there are unannounced first party 3DS games, and while I expect nothing for Wii U, surely something for 3DS is reasonable.

 

[dex3108]

Sony date is placeholder. Also i am not sure about Ubisoft time. But i will check everything and link it to right streams before E3 and before i post it.

 

[BKSmash]

Welcome to my last 8 years of Banjo dreaming.

And the 8 years prior to that.

I swear I saw when all the artwork for God of War 4 leaked that a few journalists hinted at that they've already played it, but I can't remember who. God of War games usually release in March and I feel like March 2017 is a pretty safe bet for it. Even if Horizon: Zero Dawn's delayed to 2017 like rumored, I think it's more likely to be pushed farther back into May than to move God of War 4.

Hmm, seems a bit unlikely they'll show such a high profile exclusive at E3, and then release it in less than a year.

We should have seen some more of Horizon by this time too. Virtually nothing on TLG as well. It's weird that only E3 is where we get any real news on something. They should space their showings a bit.

He works for Sony by all accounts. Used to drop hints back in the day before Project Beast (Bloodborne) infamously leaked. People realised it was a real thing when they started scouring his post history for hints and noticed all the references he made to beasts and whatnot.

Not to my knowledge. He really dialed down on the hype-mongering after the Project Beast incident. I guess he flew too close to the sun once folks realised that the leak was genuine because of posts he made earlier on.

Great banners again this year dex!

 

[SnowFlakeCake]

Song better announce god of war 4 at E3, you've got to be kidding me if they don't have anything to show after Barlog has been back for near enough 3 years.

Sucker Punch next and GOW4 will make me more than happy, nothing else comes to mind that I care about much.

 

[dex3108]

One question for US people. Currently it is PDT/EDT time in US but many E3 conferences use PT/ET on their conference announcements so what do you want me to use on banners?

Nice work. As I said in the OP, I am not going to have the time to do a proper official thread where I keep the first post updated as new details come out. So I will leave that for someone else to do. How about yourself, as you're obviously able to create sweet graphics for it?

Gotta say, I'm really looking forward to this year's GIFs. I expect to see ones with clips from Deadpool and Captain America Civil War. I'm honestly more excited for the GIFs than the show itself.
