I only expect a new trailer, and more gameplay at Gamescom or PSX.
The game is still far from releasing, and they'll probably have other things to market for the end of the year (uncharted collection).

Hmm yeah, I forgot about the possible Uncharted collection. If they do announce the collection, they'll probably show gameplay of that and a trailer for U4.
Yeah I can see from a consumer point yeah. I guess to me if I see a game I want I buy it

Before the consoles launched all the rumors suggested that it was going to be timed exclusive to the Xbox One.
Before the consoles launched or were announced there wasn't a single game that wasn't exclusive to the Xbox One.

I can't even imagine something so stupidly impossible. Bethesda would gain nothing from that.
Even last year some people thought MS smothered the industry with their bottomless war chest.

GopherD stated Sony has " hats full of money " for the holidays in one thread and then " hookers and blow " for the " winter " in another thread ( switch those 2 maybe ).
Could that be a hint at a GTA: Vice City remake? All GTA's have hookers, but Vice City was a parody of Scarface mostly which was centered around cocaine.
Can't tell you how happy I would be if that ended up being true. Or, it could of been a joke lol.
If over the holidays I am able to turn on my PS4 and choose between Disgaea 5, No Mans Sky and Ratchet and Clank, that alone would make me happy. Anything else is icing. So this E3 will be quite interesting. It should be used to solidify the 2015 lineup and most of the release dates and then set the stage for 2016.

That's certainly true. I remember it was rumored that they landed FIFA as an exclusive.
We'll see what happens. The big exclusives that have happened so far make sense. Street Fighter because Ono had said they'd been having funding issues. And Tomb Raider because of marketing tie-ins against Uncharted (which doesn't matter now) and for additional funding. Bethesda doesn't need money or additional marketing from anyone after Skyrim.

Maybe one of the two GTA clones being announced ths year; Saints Row 4 or Mafia 3, or maybe a Scarface: The World is Yours remake.

Todd Howard would not do that
the most he has done was to let Xbox get DLC first
so I expect that again.. DLC a few weeks early
he does not care about install base
http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Todd_Howard
He also said that developers should ignore demographics and installed base, and follow their passions, saying "if install base really mattered, we'd all make board games, because there are a lot of tables."

This.
Or something like Dead Island 2, which debuted at their conference last year.
Doesn't stop them from taking a huge chunk of every sold Skyrim mod on Steam
Wouldn't surprise me if Bethesda accepted an offer from MS.

It won't surprise you, but it's highly unlikely.

That'd be kinda awkward, considering an Xbox one beta is already a preorder incentive.

They usually do partner up with MS, but that's for marketing and timed exclusive DLC.
The PS4 beta just gets you into it earlier than the Xbox One and PC. It's not an exclusive beta. Sony rarely has those.
I'd say unlikelier things have happened, I mean it might not be a Bethesda game but I'm fully expecting at least one (timed) third party exclusive for MS this year again.
This Year, E3 could has maybe their best appearances of all time
Possible Games, which are not so unlikely
Bethesda - Fallout 4, Next Dishonored, Doom
Ubisoft - The Division, R6 Siege, AC Victory
EA - Star Wars BF, Mirrors Edge, Mass Effect 4
Square Enix - Hitman, Tomb Raider, Just Cause 3, FF XV
Microsoft - New IP, Quantum Break, New Gears of War
Sony - Guerilla Games RPG, TLG, Uncharted 4
This E3 - It could be very big..

I doubt it as Phil said they are only focussing on Ips they own going towards the future. Then again who knows

I think he only said it to please the fans (like he always does), he is a master PR guy.

The return of NFS as well. I think EA is going to make a lot of noise about it since they gave it an additional year of development. There'd been a new NFS every year since 2002. So it was a big deal when they decided to give Ghost an extra year of development.
Maybe, but how does that plz any fan. Not like he said they are making new ips or anything like that he just said they are focussing on Ips they own. If anything I would see it as bad because you won't get games like SO anymore

It's only 140 characters. One can only say so much on Twitter.
He also said that he'd make up for the loss of SFV and that he "loves the idea of game franchise bartering".

I dont keep up with xbox news but im p sure there was a tweet or something like a week ago that xbox will have a new exclusive ip at e3
Lord of Castamere
Member
Well yeah that's my point, money hatting a game that's already announced a beta for the other console doesn't seem likely. If the beta was exclusive then maybe I could see it.
Chobel

He said they have new IP this year, and he said they're focusing in first party, he didn't specify only IPs they own.
Nightengale
Member
IP they own doesn't discount new IPs.
It just means moving forward, they'll do less stuff like Ryse/Sunset Overdrive/Alan Wake/original Gears deal, where the devs own the IP, instead of the publisher.
And instead stuff like Ori, Quantum Break, where they own the IP, franchise, the complete package of what they're funding.

Well yeah that's a giving none of the big 3 will go a E3 without announcing a new Ip
This is what I'm getting at . MS been these since OG Xbox Publisher and fund but don't own, maybe Phil doesn't like to deals that way.

Nintendo at E3 2013, I recall announced no new IP. =P

Still think Microsoft will pick up CD Projects Cyberpunk 2077 game whenever that gets re-revealed as a actual game.
Maybe that gets announced at E3 while the Witcher 3 hype is still fresh.

Well, with games becoming so expensive these days, and if you have limited investment opportunities to begin with, investing in properties with limited monetisation and long-term risk of being available on competitive platforms may not always be a good deal.
I mean, at the end of the day, it just means that they're not able to sign deals with developers known for their aggressive independence/desire to own IP, like Respawn, Bungie, Insomniac, Epic, etc.
But there's still a relatively large availability of devs out there who's willing to let publishers own the IP.
God I hope not, I loved that teaser.
lighthouse777

no he did not say ONLY
there will be 3rd party games
promising fans a greater focus on first-party titles
but he also said
And to be clear we will have 3rd party deals
I wasn't talking about tweet from last week is something he said a couple month ago. I'll try to find a link
I don't think there's going to be much of a departure from the type of games they've greenlighted in the past, what Rare's doing might be interesting though (if it's more than Battletoads).
Where is Deus:Ex, why it's not on your list, did they say it wont be at E3?
And since when TLG is "not so unlikely" ?

I'm actually of the opposite opinion.
I think, based on the tepid reaction to their triple-CGi decker last year, the fact that one of them is undergoing development troubles (PD), and the fact that their primary competition added another conference on their slate (PSX), I feel that MS is going to be slightly more conservative this year, but in a good way.
My expectations : gameplay for every game announced prior, (Forza, Halo 5, TR, Crackdown, Scalebound), one new digital IP, one fall retail game announcement, one new AAA IP, one 'one last thing' moment, and other smaller announcements here and there.
I feel that they're going to be most focused on 2015/16, with maybe one teensy hint of 2017, but for only one game at best, unlike last year's "here's 3 games you have to wait 2 years for."
Some insider of somekind (I have no idea) posted to not expect it anytime soon.
