I think it's also the case that MS will leave things fuzzy with how certain aspects will work as they don't have a great deal of time, and 'How it does this' aren't things that investors want to hear. Expect announcements and something 'MEGATON', but don't expect concrete details. These will most likely be drip fed between E3 and launch.

Will be the same for Sony unless they really are not doing anything about used games and just say "no DRM, no fee, used games will carry on as they do now".

Absolutely. If anything the waters are only going to get muddier.

Yup. The best thing I can think is that MS and/or Sony will hold a press conference after their presentations and do a Q&A about all the used games/always online etc etc shit, and actually get their message 100% clear.

I am positive they are spending this time creating their iron tight company viewpoints which everyone will regurgitate when asked.

Last Guardian for PS4 or bust.

Ahahaha.

And here we were thinking that Duke Nukem Forever would be the last time we'd be able to make jokes about the length of a development cycle.

Forgot to mention, I hope we see something of Fallout 4 at E3.

One of the Mordor crew is working on it but can't tell us anything other than it will be awesome, although it's still using the Gamebryo engine.

EDIT: Wait, it's using the same engine as Skyrim, that was on Gamebryo yes?

There's really no point spending hugely expensive time explaining nitty gritty.

Yeah that was a sharp rise in excitement followed by a plummet into despair. New generation, new engine Shirley?

Roujin

Some research indicates Skyrim was not on Gamebryo but on Bethesda's own in house developed Creation engine, which cost so much money to produce they are using it on future projects for the foreseeable.

PC version has to be the one then, Skyrim with the hi-res packs and graphics mods looked insane.

MattyJ

Actually that's a point, hopefully they can just scale up like the PC versions. Still won't stop the crazy bugs I imagine.

Well, CoD is going to be on the same engine, they've just made enhancements to it.

Luckily you will be able to catch up with it using the websites version of On Demand!

Which company will make us cringe the most? i think iwata's increasingly cabin crew like direct performances along with with a raft of new sonic games means it could be ninty's year...again.

mk64

I will update the op tomorrow.

I think ninty will HAVE to bring out the big existing Ip. Also eve. Was the last time in house brought anything new to the table?

monkey

I'm sure there'll be wii u announcements for zelda and mario even if they are literally just announcements.

monkey

What I want: -
MS to dispel a lot of the worst rumours about their box and have a lot of good looking games.

Sony to just have a lot of good looking games. Not their shit old IP for a new gen.

Oculus Rift support on a console.

Bold new directions for existing franchises.

What I expect:
The opposite.

Diluted Dante

Are Nintendo just not having a conference there, but will be showing games?

Sasukekun

Ninty aren't doing a conference, they're just doing a separate Nintendo direct programme.

Spock

I saw something, somewhere that showed nintendo having a fair amount of floor space set aside at e3, I can't bloody find the thing now though!

4822 and 5244 - Nintendo of America Inc.

optimark_prime

Nintendo really need to give the Wii U a massive boost.

I expect to see more of The Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2.

It'd be nice to see Kid Icarus, F-Zero, Wave Race and new Mario 3D, Mario Kart, Zelda and Metroid too.

Some original IP would be welcome.

TheDJR

I want Dark Souls 2 to not be shit, that and some kind of indication that Persona 5 may be made in the future.

hylian_elf

I'll be watching/following E3 mainly to see what games Microsoft announce for the XBone. Oh, and hopefully Sony confirm one or other regarding Last Guardian.

This is a really easy to read time converter BTW.

Day Z and Diablo 3 running on PS4. That's the only thing that interests me.
