I would love it if an XCOM sequel was announced for current Gen consoles and PC. XCOM and Dishonored faced off in 2012, would be great if the sequels did the same.

I don't think Dishonored 2 will be all that different. Why would it be? The first was really successful and received great reviews.

My only major prediction is that Fallout 4 will get announced and look cool as shit, and that a whole ton of people will bitch about something trivial within it, and the NV vs F3 argument will be prominent.
This. I believe now is the time!

Zelda U isn't a presentation failure and instead completely wows the masses. The franchise is modernized, becoming a more cinematic driven game but still keeping its really tight gameplay.
Via amiibo, most likely.
That wouldn't surprise me.

Apart from Wind Waker and the weapon bug, haven't the Zelda 3D presentation failures only been due to Wiimote malfunctions until now?
No I don't consider the GA presentation a failure, it was shown way too early and people seemed to forget how game development works.

Bethesda having it's own conference pretty much guarantees your list for them...and it is making me pumped. Mayhaps we get a teaser for a new Wolfenstein also

if that Joe Montana 16 thread is not just total bullshit (big if), I guess Joe Montana 16 for Microsoft's conference is my prediction :v
I don't know if Persona is the type of series that demos well on a stage show. Or most JRPGs, really.

On the other hand, it's the type of game that is trailer gold, so I could see it getting a nice 2 minute trailer. Maybe a tease of the localisation if we're lucky?

Bethesda Conference: "War. War never changes."
I´ll just put my prediction/wishlist on games/stuff I think/hope/interested to see at E3:
1. Metroid U announced with trailer.
2. Fallout 4 announced with a trailer for release this year(I will be happy if it´s just announced.)
3. Zelda U trailer, demo, holiday 2015 release and the actual name. Zelda: Guardians of Hyrule or something
4. The Division actually turns out to be good(also, no downgrade) and will be released this fall.
5. New IPs.
6. Battlefront trailer and onstage demo at EA / Sonys conference, release end of October 2015.
7. VR stuff in general.
8. New Deux Ex game trailer and release window. Maybe this year.
9. Dishonored 2 trailer and release 2016.
10. Rise of theTomb Raider trailer and demo with release date.
11. God of War 4 teaser/trailer. Release 2016.
12. New Gears of War teaser/trailer. Release 2016.
13. Rainbow Six Siege trailer, demo and release this fall.
14. Star Fox trailer, demo and release date, most likely Aug/Sep.
15. Doom 4 trailer, release Spring 2016.
16. Quantum Break trailer and release window.
17. Halo 5 single player gameplay, onstage demo.
18. Titanfall 2 announced with single player mode(because it will sell more copies), coming 2016.
19. No price cut on PS4, won´t happen until at least November 2015. Also no more price cut on Xbox One.
20. Expecting a price cut on Wii U this year, might be at E3.
Didn´t make the list because it never happens. I am at a point where I don´t care if it happens or not anymore:
- Beyond Good and Evil 2
- The Last Guardian
I will be happy with E3 if Zelda U is released this year and/or Fallout 4 is announced. If Zelda is delayed, I kinda expect a "New Super Metroid" game for Wii U and N3DS coming this holiday.
Edit:
Forgot about Nintendo beyond 2015. I don´t think there will be any announcements on new handheld or home console at E3 this year. I fully expect successor to Wii U to be announced at E3 2016. New handheld might be revealed earlier in an another event or at the same time. New handheld might be released fall 2016 or spring 2017. New home console I expect fall 2017 latest, don´t think it will be later than that because of low sales.
Also, very curious if there will be any Nintendo software announcement, as well as how many there will be for 2016 and beyond. I think(?) almost all of their previous announcements for Wii U, will be released this year, right?

I didn't have any prediction for this E3 but after going into the Mario Party review thread I realized how much Nintendo Land (or any Wii Sport game) is better than recent Mario Party games.
Now I want a Nintendo Land 2... this seems an ok prediction. But I remembered that Nintendo said that Wii U could handle two Gamepads so... crazy prediction time !
Nintendo Land 2 announcement with two Gamepads support (comes with a Gamepad for 89$ or without for 29$) and available early december.
+ list of 2016 games compatible with it starting with Zombi 2 U (some are old games which are going to be patched, a few with a bonus 2 Gamepad mode)
+ Wii U update so people can play two different VC games on Gamepads
Boom ^^

Of course we will. We're gamers, and we're on the internet. Expressing disappointment is like breathing.
Magic Mushroom

I won't. I mean, there will be surprises and games missing in action, but the stuff that is almost certain to be there is already good enough for me.I think it's gonna be an excellent E3.
For a second there I thought you were replying to yourself.
My only predictions would be:
Assassin's Creed scripted demo to hide the bugs
Uncharted 4 new set piece, no date
Date for The Division (downgrade)
Zelda U gameplay
Starfox Gameplay
Last Guardian cancelled (well not showing up)
Some more footage of Mirror's Edge
Trailer for Mass Effect 4
Fallout 4
Titanfall 2...now we fixed it!
Halo 5 trailer and demo
Battlefront demo
Splatoon gameplay?
Dishonored 2
Demos for a bunch of games we already know about
Every conference outside of Bethesda and Nintendo will be excruciating to watch
Pie in the sky prediction:
MGR2
Silent Hills shown off, shaping up nicely
Can I just reiterate how The Last Guardian is not coming. Squash that hope now people.

They are normally referred to as "The Big Three" and Nintendo is one of them.

CG trailers, CG trailers everywhere. No gameplay. That is my prediction.

Battlefront coming along well
I just hope they don't punish people with bad endings if you go on the offensive again. Deus Ex doesn't.
I should be able to use powers and stealth kills without worrying about Chaos affecting the ending.
Battlefront coming along well
One of their playtesters said the words "Ship it. Boom. Done." ?
That tweet is showing a lot of cockiness from the DICE of last year who were humbly trying to do their best at such a well love franchise (and after BF4 MP fiasco).
Battlefront coming along well
GIVE IT TO ME!
The playtester in question wants to see the world burn.
