Well yeah, a game that's not coming out until sometime in late 2016 is defnitely not going to get a fullblown gameplay trailer at E3, that's true, something that's coming in the first half of 2016 might though and even if it doesn't we still won't have to wait too long for more since it'll probably be at every event after E3 as well, just like Bloodborne.

Couldn't agree more.
GoW3: R is getting released this Summer right? I'm sure it'll get a mention along with the likes of Journey and all the other Summer jazz. A montage will do.

But that doesn't make sense. We don't know what they're doing this year yet, and the format doesn't change what announcements they might make.
That would be a great E3 for MS.
Poor child.
?
Which part of it do you think is unrealistic? All of it seems very doable except for maybe The Crew 2(which I even put a question mark next to as I'm 50/50 on that). Since you are most likely talking about MS, I'll give my reasoning for expecting all of the above:
H5, Gears, Gears4, TR, Scalebound, Forza 6, Crackdown, QB are a given. They are pretty much guaranteed to be shown in some form at E3.
Battletoads - Phil had a battletoads shirt on a while back and this is a big year for Rare IP's supposedly, so I'm expecting more than one rare IP revived and Ken Lobb said PD wasn't apart of their plans.
Banjo Kazooie - Big year for Rare IPs, Kampfheld hinted at it being shown at E3.
Joe Montana / Alan Wake Remaster - Heavily rumoured and it's pointing towards those rumours being true.
Phantom Dust - Well, MS says it's still in development just by a different studio, if it is we should see it this year aswell considering it was teased last year. If it's not shown, I'd say it's cancelled but there's nothing really pointing to that as of yet other than one version of the game made by an indie studio being cancelled.
Hololens games - We know they opened up a good amount of studios that we know are working on Hololens games, I imagine we'll see a good amount of their games showcased and to show off Hololens.
Unannounced exclusive new IP or 2 for 2016/2017 - We know Lionhead is working on a new IP and have been for quite some time, seems like a good time to show it off.
Obviously not all of those are coming out in 2015 and you would be silly to think so, but I think they all have a very good chance at being shown at E3 this year. Maybe the hololens games will be kept for another conference but we should start seeing some games made for hololens this year I would think.

In my case, I just don't follow them enough to make any predictions beyond the bleedingly obvious (Zelda duh). They also don't do a conventional conference. If they did announce one they'd immediately get a lot of attention because that would likely mean a new hardware announcement.

Black Flag was at Sony, Unity at Microsoft, so Victory at Sony again ?
Last year, Ubisoft showed everything at MS briefing except FC4
I'm expecting Victory at MS just because Sony seem to have everything else
Everything else ?
for now theres only Star Wars, Black ops 3 is been rumoured

I'm curious to see if Microsoft locks down Mass Effect DLC (timed), it's pretty closely tied to the platform already...and I have a feeling EA access is killing it for MS/EA on the X1.

Don't forget Batman: Arkham Knight, and probably next Destiny expansion (Comet, was it?). And I'm probably forgetting something... MGSV?

Its obviously a rumor but there were hints online that Ubi had decided to go back to the PS4 as the lead platform for Assassins Creed.
Highly doubt it. If anything its quite the opposite because we'd have heard some hard numbers from either/both of EA or Microsoft if it was all that impressive. It also looks like EA is tilting back towards Sony at the moment. Microsoft will be heavily promoting Halo 5 this holiday season while Sony's pushing the third parties hard instead. Everybody wants to be seen with the winner and that's very clearly Sony at the moment.
Yes, no more AC at either MS or Sony conference please.
Well Batman coming after E3 in 2 weeks or so
Guess they didnt want to show more gameplayBut its possible that Sony announce the next expansion pack of Destiny, also MGSV
Maybe one of SE's Game like Just Cause 3 or Hitman ? Or maybe Mad Max
And if we are lucky one of Bethesda's Game ^^

AC will be at Microsoft for a year or two more I guess.
Those game still sell 6 million + every year like its nothing so they are not going anywhere.
Well... did we ever actually get numbers for Unity? That game had real bad word of mouth. I wonder if that effected its sales any.

I don't think they will show Crackdown and Phantom Dust. And I think that QB and Alan Wake will be at Gamescon like last year. The other things are very likely.

But I love SoR...
And not really anticipating it, or anything really. Again, only game that I want is a new Wild ARMs...which means I've been constantly disappointed for many..MANY years.
They'd be foolish not to show Crackdown, but I'm not sure on Phantom Dust after all the controversy with the original developer shutting down.

I think this guy is onto something..
I think this guy is on something.
Wasn't it supposed to last year, but was pushed out because MS E3 was too full? It also debuted at E3 I believe back in 2013. I can see it being at E3 then Phil Spencer walks out on the stage "That's not all that's coming from Remedy next year, pre order Quantum Break today and get a free copy of Alan Wake Remastered at launch."
Crackdown will be at E3, it's their showcase for the cloud. I don't see it not being there. It pretty much has to be.
If Phantom Dust is still a thing I think we'll see it at E3, if not because the teaser debuted there, then just to show people that it's still in development. Whether or not it's still in development or not is another story, but I think it is.

can I do a wishful thinking one?
I want a remaster of the Zork series
I want a remaster of the Zork series
Activision I believe owns this and they actually did a remaster way back in 1996
doe Sega and PlayStation -Japanese only
and Zork among the 10 games in the Game Canon in the Library of Congress

Didn't verendus say something about there being 3 sony 1st party games at e3 in another thread. Some of the sony predictions look pretty weak
Chobel
Member
Yeah, he said 3 "notable" first party games that "no one knows about officially yet. Those 3 games may include GT7 and/or GoW4 though.
The best part about this is that it's totally realistic and probably accurate. I'm so fucking excited for Bethesda's conference. Dishonored 2 and Fallout 4, GIMME.
(I'm still holding firm to my 2015 Fallout 4/2016 Dishonored 2 prediction.)
Some people seem to think that there will, or could be, a reveal for FFXVI.
At first I thought that would be pretty premature but if you really think about, it's probably been in development for quite a while now considering that FFXV wasn't initially planned as a mainline game.

He's right, Boyes loves to do that. He announced Grim Fandango as a PS4/Vita exclusive last E3 when that game was always going to be released on PC day one.
Eolz

Thanks for the answer. They are in a difficult situation in that people might expect hardware if they do some traditional conference again yeah, which would be weird since they did an E3 direct only for 2 years.
I can see that happening but...
... a Quakecon beta launch would make more sense though. I'm sure Doom will be their main E3 game though.
I'm ready to bet it won't be released this fall.
PC's aren't consoles. Console debut= First on PS4, but that doesn't mean the PC version hasn't already came out or comes out the same day. I think he slipped up on Grim Fandango since he did it with everything else.
I'm guessing for Sony:
Open with a 5-10 minute Uncharted 4 setpiece demo
Activision stuff:
5-10 minute gameplay demo for Black Ops III
Destiny trailer for the new expansion
Bungie guys come on stage and talk for too long
Sony 1st party:
Uncharted Collection, holiday release
Ratchet and Clank gameplay reveal and release date
Horizon announcement
Media Molecule new IP announcement
Gran Turismo 7 announcement
Until Dawn gameplay and release date
3rd party:

Final Fantasy XV trailer
Metal Gear Solid V trailer

Other stuff:

$50 price drop
Hmm maybe too much stuff.

Slipped up? Do you think he did it by accident?
Saying "console debut exclusively on PS4" (that is the exact wording he uses) about a game that is already on PC is very misleading if said game is supposed to appear on other consoles later on. As far as I can tell it could very well mean the game will be released only on PS4 and no other console.
They always make it very clear when a game will be coming to one console and only one console.
"Console debut exclusively on XXX" should be pretty straightforward for us, at this point.
