If there was any chance of F-Zero coming back they would give a more optimistic non-answer when asked about it. Even Metroid gets a "we're looking to cater to both styles of Metroid"
F-Zero gets a "oh, well the controller...uh....innovation.....uh.............yep"
I want to believe but I....I just can't

I just base my expectations on what the companies are saying going in. Like Microsoft last year, they hyped it up really huge going into it and then their big announcements were a remaster collection we already knew about (that also turned out broken) and three 2016 games debuted in pre-rendered trailer form (one of which was cancelled 7 months later). Even though their show may've been a better overall show than Sony or Nintendo's, Microsoft's was the only conference I came out disappointed by.
The Vita marketing strategy? Brilliant idea!
Mobile Suit Gooch
Grundle: The Awakening
So there's not much to look forward to from Sony's end, huh?
Well they'll probably show Wattam, which is Keita Takahashi's new game.
Ahh! Thought perhaps you lost another bet of some kind. Carry on then Mr. Three star sir.
I was thinking of something like this. I would not be surprised if this happened. I just have a feeling F-Zero is coming. It'll be coupled with one of those patented Gaf meltdowns as well.
I would probably cry. I'm not even exaggerating, I would shed actual tears of rage and frustration.
If Fallout 4 is scheduled for this year, there is no way they miss Black Friday.
Yup. I have a feeling that if it's coming this year (which I think it will), you can bet on it releasing in the last week of October.

Well, we're gonna get some announcements from Nintendo. F-Zero could be one of them.
I'm personally banking on Animal Crossing and Metroid.

Animal crossing would be great with the tablet controller. So many possible uses.
Crafting and designing of patterns and furniture
having your fish-tank with all the stuff you caught
typewriter for messages and dialogue
browsing tom nooks catalogue
minigame-stuff
And if it Will not happen at TGS it Will happen at PSX.
Assuming NX is gonna launch with a 3D Mario (Source: My ass) I don't think they'd need another big hitter for launch like Metroid, they'd be better served putting it out now, and getting a quick turnaround for a Metroid Prime 5 on NX (See also: My ass)
I'm impressed - no real leaks so far or did I miss something?
Gears of War remaster was leaked.

We've still got well over a month yet, give it time.
I hope nothing leaks though. Fuck leaks. I want to know about that stuff in the moment.
I think that's too bad for you then, because they definitely will and they would be stupid not to I think.
Expect VR and AR two be two big technological trends in consumer electronics going forward. SCE and Sony seems to have done a great job with their VR HMD and some of the game concepts / demos they have definitely look pretty promising.And again, I think it doesn't really matter. They can just show a pre-recorded gameplay segment from a VR game as well.
But a live demo is obviously always more convincing. Motion controls are just fine to me. I didn't see any issues with the Skyward Sword live gameplay demo at E3 2011/2010 in terms of presentability (though there was a significant calibration issue at their E3 2010 Skyward Sword live gameplay demonstration
).There will be VR games with regular controller and VR games with motion controls. And games that will be compatible with a multitude of input methods I think.
Personally, I'm happy that motion controls are emerging again. Games with great 1:1 motion controls can be really awesome, intense and satisfying if done right. (no waggling)
Wii Sports Resort, Red Steel 2 and Skyward Sword for example were awesome thanks to their great motion controls in my humble opinion.
I still want to get a PS Move as well at some point and purchase some PS3 Move games.
And maybe I should consider Razer Hydra for PC as well. I disagree. E3 is the most publicized event of the year within the video game industry. E3 2015 will be the E3 before the launch of Project Morpheus (by E3 2016, Morpheus should already have launched). So, E3 2015 is going to be a significant spotlight for Morpheus I think. It's the event where they need to convince people that VR is going to be a significant 'medium' for video games and where they need to show people how amazing Morpheus is.

Well, technically we could argue that Horizon 'leaked.' =P
And no one would be remotely surprised at Uncharted Collection announcement for this E3.
TLG Prediction :
It'll show either this year or next year, but it'll be released within the same calendar year of reveal.

By the way, I was wondering, is the Project Morpheus VR HMD designed and manufactured solely by Sony Computer Entertainment internally (at SCEA R&D 'Magic Lab')?
Or did they get help from their parent company / other branches; from Sony's expertise in optics, design and electronics?
Exactly. ^.^ This is what I'm trying to say as well.

Agreed on the first part but I'll say within the same financial year, like Bloodborne.

Richard Marks, in various interviews, did bring up cross-division stuff like optics, etc as part of their core competencies in developing the Morpheus.
Though we don't really know how deep the rabbit hole goes. I mean, SCEI technically has their own design & hardware team that's separate from the the Electronics business division of Sony.

A lot of people are predicting Nintendo Vs. Capcom, which I find very interesting. Do people think it would play like Marvel Vs. Capcom?
The hype train got me thinking about Playstation All-Stars 2, and just how much they could fix it. Part of me wants to make a roster. I think I will...

E3 Hololens With Cortana

Or rather like Tatsunoko vs Capcom.
Can't see that happening this gen now that Smash has DLC, and that the WiiU might be replaced as soon as the end of next year.
They will probably be present as well on the show floor.

So this E3 will be a gimmick show again? Show me the games for my console and not some gimmicks that will be abandoned after a year.
Yes i think that morpheus and hololens are gimmicks.

So much this. If the pressers this year are largely about VR or the like, I'm going to be extremely disappointed. I want to see games, games and more games. Not a neat but likely extremely niche (IMO), peripheral.

Gotta say, your Sony predictions are probably spot on save for a few things. I'll be happy with it + whatever indie montages they throw at us.
Good job!
In 2016, yes.

If this list happened it would be amazing. And save a few points I think it's very likely. Maybe take out GT5 and TLG and add in Ratchet and Clank for an October 2015 release and i'd say this is probably a safe bet.
Front Mission 4 & 5 HD would be incredible for me at least

Aren't there rumors that Blizzard will announce a new D3 expansion at Blizzcon?

Not a chance. They're still releasing updates and features like the treasure gnomes etc.
Diablo cycle is looking.

Ratchet and Clank has to be there.
