General E3 Thread

What do you think the odds are that Microsoft will announce Halo coming to Windows 10? Halo 5's forge is coming to W10, and one of the Halo 5 devs said something along the lines of "This is only the beginning". Furthermore, Microsoft has been trying to build up their own W10 PC game store. I imagine adding Halo games would do a lot to convince people to switch to W10. Maybe porting some of the Bungie originals will convince people to get an XB 1 for Halo 5.

I still find it unlikely, but a man can dream.

I wouldn't say its impossible, given how Microsoft seems to really be going for the PC and Xbox One unification thing.

Shenmue 3 probably at E3.

Edit: Possible MS E3 spoilers. Nothing too surprising.

From the looks of that, Microsoft's E3 doesn't look terribly interesting to me, though there's hopefully more to come.

Shenmue 3 will likely just have a trailer.

Floor plans.

Take-Two sure has a lot of space. Seems like they have EA's former location. Red Dead incoming?

I wonder how much Sony space will be dedicated to VR.

Warner should be good this year with Injustice and probably Suicide Squad and Mordor 2.

I still hope Nintendo is making a 1:1 recreation of Hyrule with that space. Though at least they can claim Zelda has the biggest physical presence of any game at this E3.

It's likely going to be a floor space for people to try the game and another section for the livestream.

Take-Two also has Mafia and a Civ game IIRC.

SE's place is probably the most filled space what with all the demos and the computers to play XIV.

The Elder Council. Next TES game or expansion to their MMO?

I get the feeling it'll be a ESO expansion or that card game they mentioned last year. Calling the next game The Elder Council seems weird.

Oh and Watch_Dogs 2 items are being sent out early to people...

Of course, the new game could be coming anyways. It's been long enough, I'd say.

As in promo items? Well, here's hoping for a trailer then. Maybe some gameplay.

It's releasing this fiscal year so they better have something.

The Elder Council? That name alone makes it sound like a content update to ESO, which I hope to god it isn't. I can't believe that MMO is still running. From the moment it was announced, I had the feeling in my bones that this wasn't gonna fucking work at all. You can't have an MMO that is also a true Elder Scrolls game, that is as hard an incompatibility as can exist in gaming. It's a contradiction in terms.

Also, the card game is called Elder Scrolls: Legends.

We're apparently getting a demo for Serious Sam 4 on the show floor at long last.

Nintendo will also have some Pokemon S&M footage. Nintendo's PR is really strange these days with so many statements that they go back on, their youtuber gaming stuff, no comments on scandals etc.

They're a company that knows they've got nothing this year and aren't pretending otherwise.

I can't wait to find Pikachu in Zelda.

Nintendo's PR is the new Zelda puzzle. Decipher it for the full E3 experience.

The 15th has a Pokemon GO Q&A and the 16th is also going to have a Pokemon special, according to Serebii.

Focus Home Interactive lineup. Looking forward to Vampyr.

Edit: Wow their PR sucks. Imagine everyone who didn't take the day off due to just Zelda being announced. On the other hand none of the games are really interesting. At least we'll get a release date for DQVII(hopefully the rumor that Nintendo pushed VIII to 2017 after delaying the NX wasn't true...)?

Nintendo's updated days.

I'm guessing their plans changed last month...

Vampyr does look quite interesting, but I have to wonder what the gameplay's gonna be like if Dontnod is the developer. That dev house has only two releases- Remember Me and Life is Strange, so I can just see the mechanic for feeding on people being this hacked-together gimmick where you need to walk up behind someone and select the "Feed" option from a radial menu or something equally awkward and- euuugh! Makes me shudder just thinking about it.

Or it could be something awesome like a hybrid of Vampire: The Masquerade and Pathologic, but I doubt that's gonna happen.

Ubisoft lineup.

XSEED.

Edit: bad link.

Am I the only one who expected the Nintendo Treehouse live to feature more than just Zelda?
