Looking forward to Titanfall 2, Yooka-Laylee, the new Omega Force project, and hopefully Left 4 Dead 3.

I'm keeping my expectations very low for Zelda U.

[Gredler]

Looking forward to seeing friends and getting drunk, and hearing marketing/executives/retailers praise how great titles are based on the trailers playing on the show floor.

I'll never forget standing next to a group of suits looking up at the Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic MMORPG's trailer - obviously looks nothing like the game, and shows no gameplay - and them saying "Wow, that looks like a great title! Put that on the list [insert assistant's name here]"

E3 = best on the internet, going to it is depressing hahah

[TR0N]

Hoping to see more of zelda wii-u even though it's been pushed back until 2017 Other then waiting to see what sony is up to at E3.Still E3 itself is rotting away since more and more developers,having there own press conferences instead of showing at E3.

[Desh]

Maybe Tom Kalinske will get up on stage and announce that a new Sega console is now on sale in stores everywhere. Well except Kay Bee. Because they suck.

This would be the best thing ever!  Well... maybe not since he's in the educational kids videogames business these days and likely would be announcing the Sega Pico 2.

[sirhcman]

I'm hoping Microsoft gives us more information on Crackdown 3! I have been waiting for this release ever since Phil Spencer spilled the beans on it about 3 years ago

[esteban]

I am looking forward to the new XaviX PowerMat titles from Jackie Chan Studios.

[Otaking]

Kicks off in a few hours.

I predict this years E3 will be the year of VR.

[MNKyDeth]

I think VR is way over-hyped at this point already. How many of you have large rooms to run around in with really high ceilings so you don't smash your bulbs out by accident?

I mean, I never used VR yet so I don't really know... But from watching streamers on twitch and various video's of people using VR it seems you need a rather large empty room with high ceilings to get the best out of this type of technology. Once everyone has their "VR rooms" sure, I can see it being something to check out.

We've used it in offices within cubicals for years, so I am not sure space is nearly an issue as kinect was. If you living space is smaller than a cubical I doubt that VR is a affordable option. The PC required to run the software, and the VR equipment itself, are too expensive for me to get for the home even if there were a killer app that made me want to use it outside of testing and experimentation.

I preordered my Playstation VR day one, I have always been fascinated with 3D and VR tech.  I just hope I don't need to buy PS Neo now.

I was actually all ready to buy a PS4 this weekend. However, with he Neo coming out I will wait a few more months before buying one. Might as well get the fanciest one out there. (So far)

[wiseau]

I can't even bring myself to care at this point, any game that looks like it's worth a damn is either delayed to hell and back or never is as good as they promise.

[780racer]

Well I will throw my 2 cents in.

I am excited for Quake, super glad to see that game is coming out. The teaser is very "We made something in a weekend" but DOOM was the same way, it the single player is epic.


Also excited for skyrim.



regarding Nintendo. I will be purchasing WiiU, and hope zelda isn't shit. But at this point, after finally finding out what Star Fox Zero was. I have no f*cking hope for Nintendo. They are just the same f*cking games from 5+ years ago.


Few others could surprise as well. But that is all I have to say ATM.

To be fair star fox zero was done by platinum games and hadn't been a finite do produced game since the N64 I belive. And platinum games has been very hit or miss. I fee they are trying to pump out to many games at one time and do not have the ability to split their man power. That and the whole utilization of the Wii U's game pad felt like it was being forced on platinum to use from Nintendo. If they ha D just made it optional then the game would have been another classic star fox game instead of a compromise of fun over frustrating.
