It's that time of year again folks. Time for rumors, hype, game reveals, and enough marketing buzzwords to choke an elephant.
Presenting....
Let's get things rolling with who is doing what and where. This information shamelessly stolen from
www.e3countdown.com, which is where you should go. But if you're too lazy to click, here is a quick summary.
Note: Stuff is already getting revealed prior to E3. With that comes trailers/teasers. I've built a pseudo "E3 Dashboard" that lists all the current "E3" reveal teasers as well as some basic info, mostly it's just a playlist though. You can find it here:

Eidos, bring Deus Ex 4.
Episode 103 - OFF THE RAILS

"We have years of struggle ahead, mostly within ourselves." - Made in USA
"We have years of struggle ahead, mostly within ourselves." - Made in USA
"I think this is the year for The Last Guardian."
"How many times has that been said in this podcast?"
"Many times."
*Bursts of laughter*
Listen to that podcast.
"We have years of struggle ahead, mostly within ourselves." - Made in USA
Interested to see Battlefront gameplay, but beyond that... eh.
Old PA forum lookalike style for the new forums | My ko-fi donation thing.
I do so love E3 conferences.
/hype
Microsoft could surprise us, but I think it's mostly games we expect, like Halo, and probably Usher singing on stage. :P
Sony is going to have a lot of info on Morpheus and that has me very interested. I'm curious to see how they approach it, and hope it doesn't turn into a second-thought accessory. I think VR headsets have a big advantage with disabled people and I would love to see it become more mainstream.
I fully expect Sony and MS (MS more than Sony) to trumpet their "we're THIS awesome" business horns.
Sony
- PaRappa the Rapper 3
- Sly Cooper 5
- Dark Cloud 3
- Cool Boarders
- Syphon Filter
- Drakan reboot
- Intelligent Qube released as a PS1 Classic?
- Or a new Intelligent Qube?
- Kinetica 2
- Folklore 2
- Legend of Legaia 3
- Don't even mention The Last Guardian
Nintendo
- Super Mario Galaxy 3 and a bunch of other new games for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One
- Pokemon Snap 2 (this one can be on Wii U for reasons)
Microsoft
- Blinx 3 (this is a joke)
- Voodoo Vince 2 (this is also a joke)
- Viva Pinata (NOT A JOKE)
- R.C. Pro-Am reboot (did you know Rare owns this and has been sitting on their fucking hands with it for over 20 years DID YOU KNOW THAT SHIT, what the hell Rare)
- Jet Force Gemini 2
- Crackdown 3
- BRING BACK 1 VS. 100
- Project Gotham Racing 5
EA
- BURNOUT PARADISE 2. PARADISE-"LIKE" NEED FOR SPEED GAMES ARE NOT SUFFICIENT. NOBODY CARES ABOUT NEED FOR SPEED ANYMORE.
- Any sort of new info on Mirror's Edge 2
- Mass Effect Trilogy for PS4/Xbox One. FIX THE TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH ME1.
- Not another fucking Battlefield
- Please not a ten-minute demo of your new fucking Battlefield because you ignored the previous entry on this list
- Star Wars Battlefront? I've never played these but I like Star Wars
- Except I hear they're basically like Battlefield so eh...
- If Battlefront pushes Mirror's Edge 2 completely out of this E3 then fuck EA forever
- A new Road Rash would be cool
- Does EA still have the rights to make Harry Potter games? Make a Quidditch game except make it not shit this time
Ubisoft
- Info on the Assassin's Creed movie. You've got a date and director and star nailed down, I want to hear more about it.
- Please put Michael Fassbender on stage
- All AC Unity and Far Cry 4, all the time, otherwise
- Just come out and apologize for Blood Dragon and say it won't happen again and that there'll actually be substantial DLC for Far Cry 4 this time
- It's probably too soon to announce a new Rayman right? Well, what the hell else is Michel Ancel gonna do, announce another Rayman
- Say that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is happening but don't produce any screens or video of it, just keep stringing people along for a few more years, it's hilarious in a Duke Nukem Forever-like way
- More games like Child of Light and that other UbiArt game that I can't remember the title of at the moment, the World War I one
- Oh hey remember that Rainbow Six game where you basically take out Occupy Wall Street? That sounded novel
Konami
- Dance Dance Revolution next-gen revival
- That's it! Metal Gear and Castlevania are essentially dead to me at this point, Silent Hill is dead to everyone, you're not much use to anyone anymore
All the rest
- Gitaroo-Man 2
- A port of Marvel Heroes to PS4/Xbox One
- It's coming the Monday before but I wanna see so much stuff on Mortal Kombat 10
- A sequel to Kolibri, arguably the finest hummingbird-based shooter available on the 32X
- Mr. Bones 2
- Michael Jackson's Moonwalker HD
- Panzer Dragoon Saga HD Remix
- Ultra Street Fighter IV Xbox One and PS4 port
- Grand Theft Auto V PS4/Xbox One port (yes I know that Rockstar is never at E3, whatever)
- Saints Row Collection for PS4/Xbox One, they all run at 1080p/60fps now (I mainly want this for SR4, SR3 was perfectly fine on PS3 at least)
- Anything on Final Fantasy XV
- Anything on Kingdom Hearts III
- Anything on Star Wars Jedi Power Battles 2, including its existence
- - Fallout 4 but they've said it's not happening so I don't know anymore
And last but certainly not least
Something substantial with Marvel licenses!
That said, it sure would be nice to see some cool new IPs, Beyond Good and Evil 2, Deus Ex 4, Fallout 4, a new team ICO game (whether or not it's Last Guardian, I don't care if it's cancelled or not at this point, I just want that talent back in the game), the "fashionably late Rockstar PC pack" with Red Dead and GTA V, more Project Beast with a surprise PC version as well, and of course, Zelda U.
I can opine with some statistically significant degree of certainty that you may be a nutcase
SHOCKED I say.
You mean, like Battlefield Hardline, which was announced the other day?
I suppose that works. Had no idea they announced a new one already.
I bet they announce a FFXIII trilogy thing at some point. Probably not this year, that's not how Square operates - they love to drag shit out - but who knows?
If they announced a new FF Tactics for Vita, it would make me strongly consider buying one.
I feel like that's untapped potential for them to milk on iOS, Vita, or some shit.
Fuck, now I want to play FFTA.
Sony announces the rumored PS1/2 emulation for PS4
Last Guardian for PS4
A new Dragon's Dogma game
Fallout 4
A new Banjo Kazooie game(especially a new Nuts and Bolts)
Crackdown 3
A new Crash Bandicoot game
GameCube on WiiU VC
Date/price on Project Morpheus
New StarFox
New Metroid
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 3(my wife would FLIP HER SHIT)
Beyond Good and Evil 2
Super Mario Galaxy HD collection
Although I'm a big fan of 8-4 Play and their E3 centric podcasts more than anything else they have to offer, it sucks that Mark MacDonald is not present once again. I'm sure it is a good episode still, but that is nonetheless a huge bummer.
(I'm actually on holiday during E3 so someone best let me know if this happens)

JJ is trying so hard to avoid spilling a secret during the Nintendo section. The E3 podcasts will be awesome.
"We have years of struggle ahead, mostly within ourselves." - Made in USA
Oh boy, I just had an idea.
In one of the latest podcasts he mentioned that he was working on a game which involved translating a lot of "skills".
Maybe they are localizing Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem? Wouldn't be too much of a stretch since they worked on Awakening.
They were kinda forced into a corner, what with a shitload of info about it being leaked.
I think I'm most looking forward to:
Project Beast
Mirror's Edge 2
Batman: Arkham Knight
Uncharted 4
The Order: 1886
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
Final Fantasy XV
The Witcher 3
What I'd love to see:
The Last Guardian
Dragon's Dogma 2
Beyond Good and Evil 2
Syphon Filter
Gravity Rush 2
@UnbreakableVow If Mirror's Edge isn't shown, it'll have nothing to do with Battlefront. Mirror's Edge is being developed by DICE, while Battlefront is being developed by DICE LA (aka EA LA aka Danger Close, the Medal of Honor devs). Two different studios on two different continents :P.
And they haven't had the Harry Potter license for years and I doubt Warner have any interest re-licensing it to anyone.
Yeah, it's from a six month old build too, so there's lot of unfinished assets in the trailer. Not exactly something you want giving people first impressions of your game.
Same thing just happened to Sony actually. Half the Project Beast trailer just leaked yesterday, so that's one of Sony's biggest E3 announcements ruined. No-one knows if they even have another announcement of equal size scheduled for their conference.
I imagine both companies are pretty pissed right now.
Steam: pazython
They'll announce it this year and release it in 2018.
FFX was 13 years ago everyone.... Let that sink in for a little bit...
