E3 2015 Predictions & Discussion thread

Why would you want leaks? Why spoil the event?

Some hints are great though, gives people something to talk about.

Really hope we won't witness URLs being registered or trademarks being made before the show kicks off and obviously no videos being uploaded before the show kicks off.
 
A little over a month away and no leaks or hype yet :S
Fallout 4 is both technically. Rare's next game is getting announced and that hasn't leaked yet. The Gears 1 Remake leaked. Horizon (Guerilla's RPG) leaked. We'll be getting a bunch of stuff from Nintendo, who almost never has leaks.

Plus we're seeing the first gameplay from:

Star Wars Battlefront
Mass Effect 4 (Almost Guaranteed)
Halo 5 Campaign
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Fallout 4
Doom (Pretty much guaranteed)
Scalebound (Very Likely)

And if all else fails we're almost guaranteed an amazing new MGS5 song that happens to come coupled with a trailer.
 
So excited for this years E3 and I think it's Bethesdas conference I am excited for the most. I usually don' t have any big expectations going into E3(except when there are new console announcements). Bethesda having a pressconference at e3 for the first time, means they must have some several announcements along with gameplay footage.
Fallout 4 will most likely be there and this game alone will make E3 worth it for me.

Also excited to see more of the following games that most likely will be there:
Star Wars Battlefront
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Doom
Dishonored II
The Division
Mirrors Edge

Everything else is just a bonus:
Maybe a teaser of Star Wars game from Visceral?
New surprise announcement from Ubisoft at the end of their conference? BG&E2 or something else?
New Metroid game for Wii U?
 
There are some Xbox leaks about Gears.
Yeah, but everyone saw it coming. The surprise was that they're only doing the first one.

I really hope nothing else gets leaked, especially whether TLG is going to be there or not.
Already prepared for another soul crushing no show, but it's ok, it's been 5 E3s, one more wouldn't hurt, surely it's going be there next year. I'm sure of it. It's fine, everything is fine.

Yeah, but everyone saw it coming. The surprise was that they're only doing the first one.

Well, we don't even know that yet for sure. They may have just been testing the first game. Please be a collection of the trilogy.

Polygon seemed pretttty sure it's just the first, with multiple sources confirming that. And honestly I don't need the other two, the first had the best MP.

When? You mean the artwork for the game? WHich is just conceptional artwork? Doesn't give us an idea about the game.

All we know is it has robot dinosaurs and is a rpg. That's it.

MD just posted this in The Evil Within OT

So Mikami just tweeted for the first time in nearly 2 years

Between chrome and google translate (lol) I believe it says

I want to challenge you to something different
Eh?

I think it's a new project rather than anything related to TEW. Maybe he's working with Platinum or Grasshopper again? Seems unlikely that Tango would have something ready to show so quickly already.
 
Did anyone else just get Filsamech in the street pass plaza saying essentially 'E3 6/10 9PT'?

Has to be wrong since its a week off. Must be a weird resend from last year. I got it at the nintendo world NYC store.

I got all worked up :(

I have to say, usually I am excited for the 1st party conferences before 3rd parties. This time however if I had to rank them:

1. Bethesda (already mentioned in my previous post)
2. EA (Last year they had a boring E3, this year however will be the opposite I think, with games like Battlefront, Mirrors Edge, Viscerals Star Wars game, ME4, etc.)
3. Ubisoft (their last couple of E3 has been very solid lately, topping off with a surprise announcement at the end. Expecting gameplay from The Division, AC: Victory and Rainbow Six Siege with new announcements. Maybe top it off with BG&E2?
4. Square Enix (excited to see gameplay from Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and the new Tomb Raider game. We might also get a new Hitman announcement.)
5. Nintendo (usually my most anticipated conference at e3. With Zelda being a no-show and they had a good e3 last year, I don't expect much new from Nintendo this year. Maybe a new Metroid. Of course if they announce next to nothing for next year, there will be a lot of speculation).
6. Sony (could be good, but they usually show most of their big stuff before e3, which means not much new to see. We will probably get a teaser for God of War 4).
7. Microsoft (Had a good e3 last year, but since I most likely will not get a Xbox One, it's the least interesting. Gears 4 teaser at the end most likely).

Will watch them all.

How would you guys rank them and will you watch them all?
 
I really hope nothing else gets leaked, especially whether TLG is going to be there or not.
Already prepared for another soul crushing no show, but it's ok, it's been 5 E3s, one more wouldn't hurt, surely it's going be there next year. I'm sure of it. It's fine, everything is fine.

Agreed, after everything that's happened, if it even were to be there I'd want it to be a full on surprise with blown minds when it would be showed on the screen with loads of people in disbelief.
 
I can't decide whether to get a PS4 right before the Sony conference, play a bunch of games on my backlog such as Transistor, Destiny, Diablo 3, Life is Strange, and exponentially increase the hype for E3 that I will already have by then, or get it right after the Sony conference, and extend the hype for what was shown and E3 with upcoming games and the hype of finally getting the PS4 itself. Hmm decisions decisions.

It sounds like you'd be getting one either way, so might as well get it now and get the backlog started.
 
A little over a month away and no leaks or hype yet :S

last year was probably the least satisfying leak of all time. we pretty much knew every blg unannounced blockbuster title by Sony and Microsoft, conferences were so boring cus nothing could surprise you.

OMG MASTERCHIEF COLLECTIOn, yeah we know that already since january
 
It sounds like you'd be getting one either way, so might as well get it now and get the backlog started.

I don't have the money for it until early June. Also, I would like it to still be in that 30 day period in case they announce a design change or 50$ price drop at E3, so I can easily return it for full refund.

Either way, you win. Also Destiny isn't a "backlog" kind of game since it is persistent and growing constantly, albeit at a slow pace.
My prediction for this E3...Guerilla to show off that RPG they've been working on.
Platinum shows us that Scalebound is an actual game.
Nintendo...uhh...Star Fox and maybe a return to form, proper-ass Metroid game.

The chances of them announcing a slim model at E3 are second to none, and I highly doubt there'll be a price drop until the end of the year. You'll be fine buying one before E3.
 
Nintendo will make it big with the announcement of the mobile games, they're making something special.


Microsoft needs to surprise us with more First Party, I'm here for AOE4 and GOW4.

Besides them, I'm interested in WB games, they deliver great ones and we need one for Superman, Rocksteady might step in.

Also I expect NR to announce Injustice 2.

Excited for MIcrosoft and Nintendo, I wonder if they will speak something about NX and what the future holds for WiiU, price drop is coming.

Will watch them all.

How would you guys rank them and will you watch them all?

1. MS. Because Scalebound gameplay. Curious what Rare will show and hoping for Crackdown.
2. Because Bloodborne DLC. Hoping for a stunning Uncharted display and a few cool reveals like Horizon.
3. Square-Enix. Because Hitman and Deus Ex.
4. Nintendo. Because Devil's Third and Star Fox
5. EA. Because Mirror's Edge 2.
6. Bethesda. Because Doom. Don't care for Fallout.
7. Ubi. Hopefully they have some cool surprises, because another AC doesn't get me wet.
 
All those Square Enix predictions recently and yet no one is mentioning that unannounced JRPG.... obviously, pages back there are mentions of it (including mine) but those LTTP, I would think they would have mentioned that one. :P
