E3 2016: Hopes, Dreams & Fears

Last edited by Pattybean on Mon May 02, 2016 8:38 am, edited 1 time in total.

A month and a half to go to what could be a memorable E3. What are your hopes and dreams for the gaming revealathon in LA?

When is E3 2016? E3 takes place June 14-16, 2016, at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

Here's mine:

*Shadow Complex 2 - one of my favourite games last gen and hopefully the re-release is a sign of things to come.

*Destiny dlc and sequel - love destiny despite its rough patch.

*Zelda U - fresh new ideas and amazing demo show a potential OoT beater.

*Red Dead Redemption - built for next gen and improvement on everything that made the previous game so good.

*Nintendo NX - Nintendo calls everyone's bluff drops new console details at E3. Brand new Mario game blows everyone away. Strongest line up for any console launch ever. Nintendo conference ends as Reggie drops the mic and exits stage left leaving the headless bodies of the press after blowing their minds.

*Last guardian - demo on show floor is poorly received with people stating it's all style over substance.

*Journey 2 - brand new adventure and just as if not more captivating than the original.

*Playstation VR - doesn't suck and has its wii sports type game that showcases what can be achieved.

*Borderlands 3 - no lessons learned from last game just with prettier graphics. Randy Pitchford commits Seppuku to appease the crowd for the shameless cash grab borderlands became and the foolhardy squandering of the Aliens license but it's no enough and gearbox is closed the next day.

That's all I can think of. Over to you!

* New Sucker Punch game
* God of War IV
* Destiny major expansion
* Destiny 2
* Final Fantasy XIV expansion
* Matterfall gameplay
* Lots and lots of indie games
* Gran Turismo Sport gameplay
* Nier 2 release date
* The Last Guardian release date
* Valkeria Chronicles sequel announced for the West
* Yakuza 0 release date
* Housemarque and Eugene Jarvis' game announced and gameplay shown

OutRun 3 and WipEout 4 will be announced later in the year, likewise F-Zero NX.

OP needs more :toot:

- The Last of Us 2 teased.

- New Zelda titled, ace demo shown and revealed its unifying the split timelines.

- A reason to buy a Morpheus.

- Horizon Zero Dawn to look fantastic and an early 2017 release.

- That Ubisoft sword combat game to be talked about more and given a release date for this year.

- Some new adventure games to be excited about.

- Generally good conferences and for people to stop talking about E3 like it's becoming irrelevant

I don't have any hopes or dreams. On paper this sounds like a real shitty E3. Hope I'm somehow wrong.

I feel this way also. Before Nintendo's announcement last week I was super strawberry floating excited about it, but now I barely care.

Amsterdam: 1666 - Talked about in interviews, more or less confirmed for the PS4/X1 but still unsure of exact release year.
Battlefield 5 - A horror-thriller shooter set amidst the worst long-term conditions soldiers have ever endured.
Criterion's new racing game - trailer, gameplay etc.
Horizon: Zero Dawn - Ditches the shitty subtitle and looks great. New gameplay shows off exploration and other aspects, Chrimbo/2017 release period confirmed.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance - Release dated, trailed, amaze balls.
Warhammer: Vermintide - Console version shown off, release dated.
Warhammer 40k FPS for PC and consoles revealed.
Zelda U - Real gameplay shown and demoed, timeline positioning hinted at in Treehouse interviews, graphics look better than ever.

Heres mine:

Sony show off enhanced versions of older ps4 games on neo

Shenmue 1 and 2 remasters announced

A new rockstar game is announced exclusively for ps4

An open world game based in london

Zelda u looking awesome

The nx being revealed

A last of us sequel

Half life 3

A proper 3d mario adventure like mario 64, but bigger

Arcade ports from sega from sega rally to scud race

For at least one press conference to show as many surprises as sony did last year

Nice ones, but you don't want a neo nick?

The more i play some of these games like dark souls 3, the more i feel they just don't run very well and i want better graphics with a better framerate.

Would love a pgr sequel, but driveclub has filled that gap.

Are these separate because you know O3 and WO4 are coming?!!

They're separate as they wouldn't be E3 announcements. But I really want them.

I do think microsoft will bring out a slim xbox one that will be focused on its link to pc gaming.

Rare - what are they up to? Surely a banjo kazooie sequel is on the cards?

Polyphony continue to disappoint and i would hate it if they just released a cut down gran turismo and called it sport as opposed to prologue.

My fear would probably be the last guardian being delayed yet again, but tbh i cannot see a 2016 release anyway and would prefer it be amazing as it will be the final game of its kind.

Come on Sega, the year of the Dreamcast 2 is upon is at last.
Steal that Nintendo thunder since there's no NX.

What about: Nintendo have secretly bought Sega, and the NX is actually the MegaNES (FamiGenesis in Japan).

Wouldn't it be the MegaFamicom in Japan? I thought the Genesis name was only in the US.

Oh gooseberry fool, you're right, my bad.

Thanks for ruining my joke Laga

I'm looking forward to PSVR and hope we can see some decent games for it.
PS4k get a release this year.
I'd like news of a new Xbox One as well as I'd likely pick it up for Halo Wars 2.

I just want Zelda to turn up and blow everything away.

Sea of Thieves which I guess we'll see more of at E3.
