E3 2015 Predictions & Discussion thread

With regards to that fake list, does anyone around here think that an Animal Crossing sequel for the Wii U is a distinct possibility? I have only played the GCN original and lately I've been wondering about what I've been missing. Unfortunately, I don't have a 3DS; otherwise, I would definitely seek out New Leaf.

Yeah. I mean, there's were new ones for Wii, DS, and 3DS. With all this NX talk due next year, I think the time is now to introduce a Wii U entry.
 
I'd welcome a Wii U Animal Crossing. Never played a game in the series before and it looks fun.

I'm hoping we'll see more of Devil's Third as well, including a release date. I was rewatching the E3 2014 trailer and was reminded how awesome it looks. Rough around the edges for sure, but it just looks like cheesy, mindless fun.
 
The Metal Slime one looks better than the 20th Anniversary PS4 imo.

One of my firends just picked up a Metal Slime PS4 and I can attest they are gorgeous.

I'm debating selling off my launch PS4 to pick one up myself. Only thing that has kept me from doing so so far is because I think the Metal Gear console looks even more amazing so I'm waiting to snag that.
 
The 90s are long gone, and SF is no longer a "big" franchise. It probably didn't cost that much as well, hence sony paying for it.

Even with a healthy lead, paying to have big console selling games exclusive is expensive... Has sony that sort of money to throw around?? I don't think that they have in all honesty

SF is no longer a big franchise. What?

LOL, it's Capcom's 2nd best selling franchise of all time.

And while it wasn't as popular as Street Fighter II which had cumulative sales (factoring in various iterations) of 14+ million, Street Fighter IV (again, factoring in iterations) still has 8+ million sales, which is what most gaming companies would consider big.

The outrage from SFV going exclusive was fairly muted (compared to ROTTR, maybe it being on PC was also a factor)
Yeah, being on PC was a big part of it. But also the reason there wasn't as much outrage was because SFV was always revealed as a ps4 console exclusive and Sony's message on the matter was clear. Unlike Tomb Raider, which had no mention of exclusivity when first revealed at E3, preorders opened up at retailers for the ps4 version, then a few months later at gamescom it was announced that it is an exclusive to Xbox platforms with very unclear messaging from microsoft dodging the question as to whether it was permanent or timed.

Also, unlike SF V where the devs had kept on mentioning for years that they were waiting on funding to start development, Tomb Raider was already in development, and the way the exclusivity announcement came, it seemed like a late moneyhat from microsoft to keep the game off of other platforms rather than help with the development of the game.
 
Will Sony have a replacement for the holiday season now that Uncharted and Ratchet are delayed?

They won't have a major first party release, but there will be the Uncharted Collection and plenty of smaller games like Rime, Tearaway Unfolded and No Man's Sky. I think pushing third party games like Battlefront and MGS5 will be Sony's focus this winter.

What will the big show closers be?

MS - maybe a Gears 4 teaser.
Ubisoft - some bullshot nonsense
EA - probably a Mass Effect 4 teaser or gameplay trailer
Nintendo - new 2D Metroid for the 3DS
Sony - Horizon

Will Microsoft have another 3rd Party AAA moneyhat?

I don't think so. I think they're going to focus on first party stuff this E3, with more mentions of RotTR being treated as a first party game, hence its presence.

What will Ubisoft's bullshit fake demo be this year?

Probably a new Tom Clancy game.

Will TLG show up this year?

Nope. It's dead, Jim.
Prove me wrong Sony.

Anything cool at the 3rd party shows?

Mass Effect 4 and Mirror's Edge at EA's conference. Hopefully we'll see some Need for Speed stuff as well.

Nintendo?

What about them? They'll probably have a pretty good show, with Starfox, SMT x Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, etc. No Zelda though - too early to show
NX games
.

Other random nonsense.

Digital games will be the highlight this year.
 
i just hope Sonys Media Talk this year is a bit shorter
The last 2 years it was over 20 minutes long (2013 understandable with the first next gen E3)
But Microsoft only talked 6 minutes about Media at E3 2014.....
Sony's conferences are much longer so that's irrelevant. Point is who can drop the (most) megatons.
 
Heads up to anyone in here who answered my Final Bets quiz a while ago.

Turns out the PC Gaming Show Conference is set to run for 3 hours, which will without a doubt make it the longest of the press conferences.

So I'm gonna have to change the "who will have the longest press conference" question.

EDIT: I might just cancel the question so that people don't have to go back and change anything.
 
General Questions:

Which game will get the longest trailer? Mass Effect 4
Which game will get the longest on-stage demo? Fallout 4
Who will have the longest conference? N/A
Who will appear the longest on stage during any of the conferences/presentations? Philly Spence-ah
Will a on-stage demo suffer from technical difficulties/glitches? All signs point to yes
How many games that has not been officially announced/revealed as of E3 will be announced/revealed (across all conferences/presentations)? 20. Two Zero.
How many times will be the word “content” be said (across all conferences/presentations)? 98 times
How many Japanese games will be featured during the Sony Press Conference? 6
Will Nintendo reveal a game at the end of the Nintendo World Championships? Without a shadow of a doubt, yes.
Will Phil Spencer wear a t-shirt featuring a logo of an old dead franchise during the Microsoft Press Conference? He will wear at least one

Challenge Questions:


Will The Last Guardian appear during the Sony Press Conference?
Yes
Will Zelda Wii U get a trailer? Nope
Will RARE reveal a new game that is NOT Kinect focused? Yes, Banjo Threeie baby

Bonus GameTrailers Question:
Who will win the Final Bets of E3 2015 between Kyle Bosman and Michael Huber? Bosman by a county mile
 
I think I am excited about these games:

Fallout 4, Doom, Dishonored 2, Mass Effect 4, Final Fantasy XV, Final Fantasy XII HD, The Last Guardian, Star Wars Battlefront, Horizon, Animal Crossing U and FIFA 16 as of this moment.
 
Doubtful.

Next years EA Schedule so far is Mirrors Edge 2, Garden Warfare 2 and Battlefield 5.

Titanfall 2 most likely will end up in 2017.

I would have thought it would be out in March to fill that Q1 gap. 2 years of development seems reasonable to me for this kind of game.
 
My wish list;

Dino Crisis 4
Crash Bandicoot 4
Resident Evil 7
Need For Speed: Underground 3
Half Life 3
Dead Space 4
The Last Of Us 2
Dark Souls 3

Dino Crisis 4 would be great. Aslong as it's better than Dino Crisis 3 :D

Although honestly i'd only buy Resi Evil 7 if it was Barry Burton. Only Barry, fighting monsters.

Holy shit can you imagine a prequel starring the S.T.A.R.S members...? Brad Vickers DLC?
 
I have a feeling Square fans will win this time around.
 
Odds of any kind of new Persona 5 info/trailer?

Depends on whether or not Atlus (Japan) gives a shit about E3 to reveal new info before their Persona 4 DAN Bluray special.

I'm sure Atlus USA would love having new P5 info to share, but they're probably under information control by the Japanese branch. As far as Atlus USA is concerned, they're still at Teaser Trailer #2, instead of having the #PV1 that Japan already shared months back.
 
Will Sony have a replacement for the holiday season now that Uncharted and Ratchet are delayed?
Yes, they'll have GT7 and Left 4 Dead 3.

What will the big show closers be?
MS: Gears 4
Sony: Bend new IP
Bathesda: Dishonored 2
Ubisoft: Watch_Dogs 2
EA: That Star Wars game from Visceral
Nintendo: Mario Galaxy 3
Square Enix: Kingdom Hearts 3

Will Microsoft have another 3rd Party AAA moneyhat?
Not in this E3 and not any time soon.

What will Ubisoft's bullshit fake demo be this year?
Their new IP named "Hero" I think.

Will TLG show up this year?
Yes

Anything cool at the 3rd party shows?
Fallout 4, new Hitman game and Mass Effect 4.

Nintendo?
I think we'll see Nintendo announce two new Mario games, new Super Paper Mario and Mario Galaxy 3. The announcements won't mention Wii U because these two games are for NX.

Other random nonsense.
Shenmue 3 will be shown at Sony conference.
 
Odds of any kind of new Persona 5 info/trailer?

  • English version of PV01 uploaded to Atlus USA's channel and played at their booth = Very likely (meaning ESRB intro, English site/text outro).
  • 2015 or 2016 release information = Definitely. If Atlus reconfirms 2015, it means P5 releases in Q4. If not, P5 releases in 2016.
  • New footage/trailer = Unknown. It could go either way at this point. I don't think the P5 Blu-ray that comes out a week after E3 matters, but it depends on whether Atlus Japan wants to reveal anything at E3.
 
Not releasing the games on Wii U? Wii U isn't doing well at all, better save these games for their next console.

No but announcing a game with no platform just means getting asked repeatedly what platform it's coming for. If they're saving those games for NX, they should at least tell us what the NX is before showing us the games.

This.
+ NX could just be an handheld, and they already said countless times nor NX nor mobile will be talked about (even teased) at E3.

You raise a good point, but I feel Nintendo is stupid enough to do exactly like I predicted.

Paper Mario will certainly be a Wii U game (but hopefully it'll be more in line with the first 2 & not the later 2). The next 3D Mario could definitely be saved for the next console.

As for what the NX could be, based on Iwata's comments, it's probably an OS that will cover both the new console & portable.
 
Ninty needs to show some New3ds exclusives. I don't see the point of the system atm.

1 exclusive game 4 month after launch is a joke.
 
I can see cross-platform releases (WiiU + NX), but skipping WiiU? I doubt it.
Again, not Paper Mario. If that's coming, it's most likely just for the Wii U. The next 3D Mario is probably gonna be one or the other, not both.

A Pikmin game (given that the n3DS can handle it from a technical standpoint) with its own line of Amiibos, perhaps? Pikmin 3's Stylus Mode proved that the n3DS could be a great place for a Pikmin game.

I for one, don't expect any NX-related announcements. I expect Nintendo to continue having a great wealth of first-party content for WiiU well till NX launch.

Paper Mario Wii U, Next Mario proper is NX title at launch.

A Pikmin style Dungeon crawler for the N3DS I could get behind.
 
N3DS exclusives are not a wise idea. All it's doing is ostracizing people who don't feel it's worth the upgrade. I'd rather save the $200 and buy 5 games or another console.

Neither do I, hence why I don't think we'll hear about the next 3D Mario this year. They won't talk about the NX until next year. And given their patterns with releasing consoles, the NX likely won't be out until the year after its reveal (2017).
