E3 2014 is just around the bend, and it looks like this year is gonna be a big one. Y'all got any hopes or predictions? What do you think will be announced?
My predictions:
- SEGA announces Sonic & All-Stars Racing 3, featuring even more product placement characters and even fewer SEGA characters. Segata Sanshiro still notably absent.
- Grand Theft Auto V finally announced for PC, scheduled for a holiday 2016 release (until it gets delayed).
- The Wii Vitality Sensor makes a return, this time for the Wii U. Once again, Nintendo will go completely silent about it for an extended period of time and then cancel it.
- First footage shown of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. It's just battle footage and it looks identical to a battle between the same gen-3 Pokémon in X and Y.
- Sony announces PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Melee. It's still not as good as that one other party fighting franchise.
- In an attempt to get in on the party fighting action, Microsoft announces a partnership with Bandai Namco for their own exclusive entry into the genre, Digimon Rumble Arena 3, featuring a wide selection of Digimon, in addition to fan-favorite crossover characters such as Master Chief and Marcus Fenix.
- Konami reveals that they never had any plans to do anything with Hudson's IPs, and the only reason for the purchase is because they needed to get rid of some money quick.
- Square-Enix shows trailers for Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts III, both behind closed doors, but it's okay because they're just footage that we've already seen edited to show in a different order, with some narration.
- Square-Enix announces a from-the-ground-up remake of Final Fantasy Mystic Quest for PS4 and Xb1, with all new 3D graphics, voice acting, etc. for the sole purpose of trolling Final Fantasy VII fans.
- Nintendo: "Retro Studios is working on a project, and we aren't ready to reveal it yet."
- Another 10 minute long trailer for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, carefully designed to show as many returning voice actors from the franchise as they can, further emphasizing as passive-aggressively as possible that David Hayter isn't in the game.
- Resident Evil 7 is revealed, heralded as a "return to form for the franchise", with a trailer showing stunning footage of cutscenes and QTEs.
- Destiny is completely absent, confusing absolutely everyone.
- 3D Realms attempts to announce a new Duke Nukem game. Hilarity ensues.
-
On a more serious note.
I will say that I wouldn't be surprised if Xbox One and Ps4 versions of GTA5 turn up along side the PC version, at the very least info on the next game from R*, they just extended the trademark for Agent so that may well be what gets shown.
Actual new footage of the Battlefield Hardline, since the leaked footage is 6+ months old and still code named Omaha.
New Castlevania maybe.
Tekken X Street Fighter will either be teased at E3 or at EVO2014 a few weeks later.
Halo 5 footage is a sure thing along with details on the Halo HD collection for XBOne.
Last of Us sequel, won't go down too well though.
More info on Lego Justice League 3 (because Lego Batman 2 was 50% Justice League)
id will possibly show the next DOOM.
Kojima may tease Metal Gear Online 2 along side a new MGS5 trailer.
-
Microsoft announces their new system, XBox Graham's Number. They also announce some of its release titles, including Halo 5, Halo 5 mission pack 1, Halo 5 mission pack 2, and Just Dance Kinect: Halo Edition.
Square-Enix announces that FFXV will be a fantasy based on reality, except most realities have normal looking humans with normal looking hair. They will then show a "tech demo" remake of final fantasies 7, 8, and 9 in super HD for no reason.
EA will release its newest game before it's done, and nobody will be able to play it because it CTD every time you get past the loading screen.
EA Sports will announce that it's re-releasing all of its sports titles but changing the year on the cover of the box so people think they're new games.
Nintendo will show off something cool about Smash 4, then disappoint everyone by showing off something stupid about Smash 4.
-
Steam present their new concept of a gaming console/PC. The clue, it has the same online service Microsoft has tried to introduce with the XBox One, but now everyone is happy with it.
-
The Last Guardian will make a showing with a few new screenshots and how Team ICO is "working hard on it".
Half-Life 3 will be asked about, but not answered.
Majora's Mask remake for 3DS/Wii U.
Kinect2 will be demoed, but fail horribly and be the joke of the conv.
-
Square Enix announces a Final Fantasy VII Remake using all modifications made from this website, followed by an abrupt cease and desist letter sent to the admins.

What was E3 agai-
Just kidding, I know it's this pointless hype generating turdball convention that's a giant money sink for big companies, money that would be much better used employing more people and not letting valuable franchises and IPs rot.
My prediction: It'll be big.
As always.
A big turd.

One day is ahead from the annual E3 event.
I usually watch the Gamespot E3 live coverage (http://www.gamespot.com/e3/microsoft-press-conference-2014/).

Let the games begin!

AC Unity and Far Cry 4 and maybe "The crew" so far from Ubisoft for me...
Of course Witcher 3 and Dragon Age Inquisition.
-
I've been eagerly awaiting The Crew for some time now. They didn't even need to show anything new; just that level of openness is enough for me.
-
Exactly what new gen gaming stands for for me! Open world environments, a vast series of quests and activities and multiplayer features.

Dying Light gameplay right now http://www.twitch.tv/
I forgot to mention Tomb Raider! I'm so excited about the next release!
Also where is Morpheus and Rift?
And why Aisha (Ubisoft) was acting so weird?
I'm buying a ps4 for Grim Fandango remake only!

It's officially official, I need to get a wii u soon. Also Xenoblades, Smash Bros. and new Starfox. No big deal.

http://www.twitch.tv/nintendo Super Smash Bros. Invitational right now!!!

Great show all round for the 3 main consoles.
I'd rate MS a little bit higher than Sony for MS actually focusing entirely on games and giving Kinect only a slight mention which is what we wanted.
Sony however took a leaf out of the Microsoft book on E3 Press Shows and talked about TV and technology, this loses you points when you're talking to an audience that only cares about games, it was also about 2 hours, if they'd cut out some of the mulltiplatform stuff we've known about for weeks it'd be on par with the 90 minute average.
Ninty gets a solid 3rd but most of it is coming at some point next year, you need games NOW Nintendo, not 6 months from now, even Smash Bros 3DS seems to be coming later than previously detailed, October sure as shit ain't summer.
EA and Ubisoft joint lose, EA for SPORTS, SPORTS, SPORTS, now showing enough of Battlefront for anyone to to get hyped for other than 5 seconds of speeder bike footage, oh and more god damn sports games you already played last year and this year they look a tiny bit better and they updated the still outdated team rosters, Ubisoft for having some of the least enthusiastic devs ever and Aisha Tyler being super awkward for the third year running #ladyboners #ladyboners #ladyboners #ladyboners.
Oh, Sony also lose points for failing yet again to prove that The Last Guardian is actually in active development instead of stringing all the SotC and ICO fans along with their pubic hairs.
And since Sega just announced a new Phantasy Star game, that pretty much means that the western release of PSO2 is now not gonna appear 2+ years after it was announced and very quickly delayed a few months before launch.

Alexey Pajitnov talks live now about Tetris! looooool He cannot pronounce 1080p looool What a legend! http://www.gamespot.com/e3/gamespot-stage-1-2014/

About KH 2.5 HD Remix:
Leonhart_S "In a few words... same 'ol shiiiit. Give us ff7 and 8 remake at last!!!!"
Pirikato to leonhart_s "They have been remastered for PC."
I love those replies, are priceless and entertain me a lot!
Also I know I'm gonna get a raid about this but I'm hyped about Dead Rising 3 release on pc :P :P.I was looking forward to stepping on all those zombies with a weird looking vehicle for so long!

DR3 is gonna be a shitty port though, they've said it's being capped at 30fps, they'll give you the option to uncap it be it'll break animations as they won't scale and will speed up.
-
awh! I want to step on those zombies! :cry:

Disclaimer: Neither game actually being made in America except small chunks of Unity.
Ubisoft are just damn lazy, they've got half a million people at about a thousand different studios working on Unity and they can't even spend a little time to work on at least making the customization morph to a female figure, hundreds of games have done it before, many more will do it in the future.
Most games just use a slightly scaled down male skeleton and replace or tweak a small number of animations to give it some femininity by adding a wiggle to the walk animation or sexing up the idle poses.

Disclaimer: Their main market is still american white male teens
They refuse to do it because if they did, shitcreed would not be male power fantasy enough anymore and that will hurt sales with aforementioned idiots.
