If Sony are Monday night again though I can stay up since my exams are Friday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday around the conference times and E3 dates.

They'll go the opposite direction of Nintendo. Instead of pre recording, the MS E3 show will be fully improved as it happens.

Updating my posts from last E3 (http://vizioneck.com/forum/index.php?msg=202083), Microsoft will go into E3 with the fewest announced games in Xbox One history.

After launch:
Halo 5
Sunset Overdrive
Quantum Break
Titanfall
Kinect Sports Rivals
D4
Project Spark
Fable Legends

Pre E3 2014:
Halo 5
Sunset Overdrive
Quantum Break
D4
Project Spark
Fable Legends

Pre E3 2015:
Halo 5
Quantum Break
Fable Legends
Crackdown 3
Scalebound
Forza 6
Rise of the Tomb Raider

Pre E3 2016:
Crackdown 3
Scalebound
Recore
Sea of Thieves
Gears of War 4
Halo Wars 2

Pre E3 2017:
Crackdown 3
Sea of Thieves
State of Decay 2

Pre E3 2018 probably:
Crackdown 3
Ori 2
Age of Empires 4 (not sure how to count it since it's a PC game)





Now comparing the amount of Microsoft published games coming out of E3.

E3 2013:
Forza 5
Ryse
Quantum Break
Killer Instinct
Project Spark
Kinect Sports Rivals
D4
Halo 5
Dead Rising 3
Titanfall
Sunset Overdrive
(11)

E3 2014:
Quantum Break
Project Spark
D4
Halo 5
Sunset Overdrive
Fable Legends
Forza Horizon 2
Dance Central Spotlight
Phantom Dust
Crackdown 3
Scalebound
Shape Up
(12)

E3 2015:
Quantum Break
Halo 5
Fable Legends
Crackdown 3
Scalebound
Forza 6
Rise of the Tomb Raider
ReCore
Sea of Thieves
Gears 4
(10)

E3 2016:
Crackdown 3
Scalebound
ReCore
Sea of Thieves
Gears 4
Halo Wars 2
Dead Rising 4
Forza Horizon 3
State of Decay 2
(9)

E3 2017:
Crackdown 3
Sea of Thieves
State of Decay 2
Forza 7
Ori 2
Lucky's Tale 2
(6)

Probably E3 2018:
Crackdown 3 (probably)
Ori 2
Age of Empires 4
*Halo 6
*Forza Horizon 4
*A surprise if we're lucky




Depending on how you count Age of Empires, they've either leveled out or are still dropping. It's undeniable that they've downscaled their publishing efforts so it'll be interesting to see when or if it bumps back up. Could be this year if you believe all the fan talk that they're out buying every game they can.

I know. But fallout 4 was a highly anticipated and popular IP. This is a new IP. And whether people like it or not, announcing a game well ahead of time seems to give very strong results. Look at the division, destiny, for honor, watch dogs, horizon for example
Title: Re: E3 2018 countdown, get hype yo
Post by: the-pi-guy on Apr 17, 2018, 12:39 AM
It seems like there's a definite trend with Bethesda to have shorter periods from announcement to release.  

The Prey reboot was less than a year.  Dishonored 3 was released within months.  Same with Evil Within 2.  Even Evil Within was about a year and a half.  

It seems in the past 2 years, they really want to push games out as soon as they announce them.

Disadvantage: less time to hype.
Advantage: less competition for their own games, less criticism for long development times .

They did hint that they would like a short period between showing the game and releasing. They said they liked how fallout 4 was handled.

One can hope its announced and released this year.

At this point of time I do not have access to booth size data. The floor plans do not differ greatly from those I posted earlier this year.

Post by: Horizon on May 07, 2018, 02:38 PM
These are my thoughts which I posted on another forum:

First party as the driver:

Expect games like the Last Of Us Part 2, Death Stranding, Days Gone, Ghost of Tsushuima and Dreams to feature heavily in this conference. TLOU 2, Death Stranding and Ghost of Tsushima all should have gameplay unveilings which is very excited considering the pedigree of all 3 developers and all 3 games are completely different from each other eschewing the narrative that Sony games are similar. Days Gone will have a trailer as we have seen two gameplay showings but it should have a release date and should be playable on the show floor. Expect early Q1 release date. Dreams will also get a beta to try and convince gamers on its untapped potential. Oh how could I also forget Spider-man, which I expect to receive another trailer.

As for unannounced stuff it is a little trickier as most of their first party has announced their games. Japan Studio are heavily rumoured to be working on a sci-fi RPG whilst Manchester studio should have a new VR game to announce. You cannot also rule out a Fromsoft and Japan Studio collaboration on another project but it won't be Bloodborne 2; sorry folks not happening yet. There are also rumours of Devil May Cry 5 being console exclusive, so well will see about that. Sony could easily hire quality devs as we have seen with Insomniac, Quantic Dream and Kojima Productions.

Whilst 1st party will dominate a lot of this conference you will still see a good amount of third party titles. We will see the new Call of Duty and potentially a trailer for Red Dead Redemption 2. As for other third party I expect to see Kingdom Hearts 3 with a good showing and a game from Ubisoft to show up, probably Watch Dogs 3 since the first two were aligned with Playstation. I don't expect them to lean as heavily as Microsoft on 3rd party as the PS4 is the defacto mulitplatform system as it's the highest selling console by some margin.

As always we will see some new VR games but it is hard to state whether they will have a big impact or be the weaker points of the conference. Hopefully PSN name changes too lol.

All in all I expect a similar conference to last year with one or two announcements but the first gameplay for TLOU PT 2, Death Stranding and GoT will make it noticeably better and will once again highlight that Sony investments into high quality single player games continues to pays dividends.

  • Exclusive looks and deep dives on 4 upcoming Sony World Wide Studios titles
  • Death Stranding
  • Ghosts of Tsushima
  • Spider-Man
  • The Last of Us Part II
  • Highlight on indies
  • 3rd party publishers (as usual)
  • No hardware announcements at E3 2018 (PS5 reference?)
They will be live streaming (as usual), nothing leads me to believe they won't have a traditional conference. They did say more info would come for the actual conference soon.Click to expand...
So don't expect any first party game announcements.

Sounds like they learned from last year. Death stranding gameplay!!!

Not at all!  Gameplay from Death Stranding, Ghost, and TLOU 2 will be enough for me.  The rest is cake.  Yes new announcements are awesome, but we have so many games announced with no gameplay yet.

Those 4 are enough to have a stage show around alongside third part stuff.

I'm now not expecting anything new but they should at least have a show.

TLoU2 + Death Stranding gameplay is enough for me to get extremely excited.

What first party games where you even expecting them to announce? Or better yet, which first party studios where you expecting to announce any games? The only potential candidate is pretty much Japan Studios, everybody else either already announced or recently released their games.

Sony's new Manchester Studio (It's 3 years old, I'm sure it has something), Sony London is pretty much as big as Sony Japan (although with hardly any recent AAA titles), Sony's new Mateo Studio, and Sony Japan is huge.  


Not to mention that it could be a good place to show off 2nd and 3rd party games.

The show will have 3rd party reveals. I think it's just a normal e3 but with us knowing which Sony games will be there. Like mS gamescom 2015.

Sony London's output is complete trash, no matter what they are working on, the core won't care for it. Sony San Mateo doesn't even seem to be making their own games and whatever Manchester Studios is making will be VR exclusive and as such not be considered a big deal by most.

Oh and 3rd party will be there.

Monster Hunter World was revealed at their last E3 show so I'd expect stuff like that.

Also while I'm definitely disappointed by Japan Studios (Knack 2, really?), I'd rather have Sony start their focus on next generation development now, instead of repeating what they apparently did with the PS3, where they kept dev ressources on that system until the last possible moment, which resulted in an absolutely pathetic output of first party games during the first couple years of the PS4's life.

Assuming a holiday 2020 release date for the PS5, we get 3.5 years for Guerrilla Games to work on Horizon 2 before next gen, 3 years for Polyphony Digital and GT, 2.5 years for SSM and Quantic Dream, about 2 years for Insomniac and a good amount of time for Japan Studios to finally make something ambitious (-.-). That should be more or less enough time for those studios to make sure the PS5 doesn't experience similar launch droughts to the PS4. Especially if you consider that a lot of franchises or reboots in the case of God of War are going to continue on PS5, meaning that a lot of the groundwork is already being done for the foreseeable future.

Horizon 2 could be on ps4. Treat it like TLOU, gow:a, or beyond and have it come out half a year before next gen.

They should go the Botw route then and make it a cross gen release.

And yeah, I don't quite understand how people got that whole Direct idea.

Botw gameplay at E3 was awesome and getting short gameplay reveal demos is awesome.

Long spoilery demos aren't that fun. I doubt I'll watch TLOU gameplay since one of my biggest regrets with U4 was watching the extended jeep gameplay.  It's one thing to reveal how a game works, but it's another to just show a linear chunk of a game.

Procedural tech is at least becoming more and more used. Realistically devs will always push the limits and just use better tech to make bigger games, but hopefully the cost can stay static.

I love real time procedural generation and think it's awesome. So many space games can only be made with it.

Procedural dev tools are just things that help devs work faster/more efficiently. Like I'm really surprised a speedtree equivalent for cities hasn't become popular yet.

The OP approached us asking to post this information on ResetEra and we found enough reason to allow it. We'd like to make it clear that this is not an endorsement. The staff cannot verify that all the contents of this leak are accurate. The OP has accepted full responsibility for posting this material and if it turns out to be a hoax they have agreed to take a permanent ban.Click to expand...
Greetings everyone! I am making this post today not as a sole person but as part of a community. For quite some while, we, a Devil May Cry community, have been aware of the existence of a new DMC game. After reading that Hideaki Itsuno plans to unveil his secret project this year, we waited diligently to see what the project was even though we knew full and well what it actually was. We waited through E3, TGS, Paris Games and now we are in late November 2017 with no information about Itsuno's project. We endured through multiple apologies on his part and we do not in any way blame Itsuno for the the current situation. (Original plan was to leak this document after PSX/Capcom Cup but details of this document started to spread like wildfire and it was only a matter of time before it got posted in less savory places without context so we are leaking this earlier than anticipated).
  • Hideaki Itsuno's secret project for Capcom is the sequel to the original Devil May Cry series, the 5th installment. Internally it appears to be called "Devil May Cry V" instead of using the standard numeric system of the previous games (think MGS1-4 to MGSV).
RELEASE DATE AND PRODUCTION
  • The game is slated to release some time in the fiscal calendar year of 2019. That means sometime between April 2018 and March 2019. Original plan was to release it in November 2018 but the date MIGHT have been pushed back to early 2019.
  • Originally DMCV was intended to be announced at PSX but after receiving feedback on their E3 press conference, Sony decided to scale back on PSX and instead scale up E3 2018. DMCV was an unfortunate casualty of this choice and thus it's unlikely that DMCV gets officially revealed in 2017.
  • There will be a demo for the game sometime before release.
  • Game has been in development for 2 years as of today. When it will release it will have been in development for 3 years at least. That is actually the highest time a DMC game has been in full production for. Pre-production started as early as 2015 around the time that DMC4SE finished releasing. There have been no development hiccups and as stated, the development has in fact been progressing smoothly.
  • There is some form of Playstation exclusivity involved. Sony is paying for some of the funding for the game but the extent of it is not known. Could be completely PS4 exclusive, console exclusive or timed exclusive. If the game is announced publicly then it will be at a Sony event, which is why many people thought that it was going to be at PSX.
  • Trailer has been ready for a while now. The initial trailer is 1 minute 50 seconds long (they may add new cuts to trailer to make an extended version since some time has passed from when it was made). It is mostly focused on story, characters and cutscenes. A city like setting is shown in the trailer not that different from Fortuna city in DMC4.
  • The overall game is supposed to be "ambitious" for a DMC title with a broader appeal.
  • Longest cutscene runtime of any DMC game yet.
DEVELOPMENT TEAM
  • Itsuno's team that worked on previous DMC games and Dragon's Dogma is working on DMCV.
  • Yuji Shimomura is returning as the cutscene director for DMCV. He worked on DMC3, DMC4 and Bayonetta cutscenes.
  • Rueben Langdon is reprising his role as Dante.
  • Johnny Young Bosch is reprising his role as Nero.
  • Dan Southworth is reprising his role as Vergil.
  • No word on the actresses who played Trish and Lady if they will be returning,
  • Onyay Pheori is helping with the soundtrack (she did the song for DMC4SE's launch trailer).
CHARACTERS AND STORY (POTENTIALLY BIG SPOILERS!)
  • DMCV picks up the story after DMC4.
  • More than one playable character in the game, Dante is for sure playable and Nero is possibly playable as well. Up to 3 playable characters have been suggested for now.
  • This is the most serious Dante has been (a "new side" of Dante), of course not counting DMC2. Dante still plays with his enemies and has his usual over the top flair but this game is going to be more personal for him.
  • A third character is expected to be playable as well. Said to be "very powerful." May or may not be brand new to the series.
  • No word on whether Vergil is playable or not, he will be returning although specifics on how he is returning from his death in DMC1 are unknown.
  • Trish has a prominent role to play in DMCV but no word on whether she is playable or not.
  • There will be a sequence where Nero and Vergil have a confrontation, confirming their relationship (Nero is in fact Vergil's son as stated in the DMC3142 artbook).
  • Characters switch during key story points in the game.
  • The "Prince of Darkness" is featured as the main antagonist of the story. (Prince of Darkness title normally refers to Mundus so it might indicate his return but that title may have transferred to another character)
  • DMCV might be the end of the "sons of Sparda" storyline.
GAME PLAY/SYSTEMS
  • Hard lock on is standard.
  • Console is targeted for 60 frames per second like the previous DMC games.
  • Level design is more open than previous DMC games but not going into Souls or open world territory of level design. Movement outside of combat has been streamlined to match the open nature of the game. The structure is more open to make the experience more "smooth." Immersion is important to the team with this game.
  • Level design and exploration is more similar to Bayonetta with action set pieces thrown in there but without the QTEs. QTEs in general do not exist in DMCV thus far.
  • There is NO Stamina bar.
  • This is not a Musou game but there will be encounters where you are facing more enemies than you are used to in a DMC game.
  • There is some online integration but definitely no multiplayer PvP.
  • Dodge system is reworked and dodging in general is supposed to be a lot smoother than before (get ready to hear the word "smooth" a lot when related to DMCV).
  • Camera pulls back during big fights. The devs are really proud of the new, more dynamic camera system.
  • Animations are being improved to be less stiff. Big emphasis on cloth physics (maybe Dante's sword might not clip through his jacket now!). Battles are beautifully animated and smooth.
  • Mission and Ranking system similar to previous DMC games and Bayonetta. There will definitely be mission/chapter selects.
  • Bosses being ramped up dramatically in DMCV. One of the boss fights moves between multiple areas of the game.
  • Style system is in for Dante - Enemies will react a bit differently to each style.
  • Style system has been streamlined to be smoother to use for the players (speculated that the style system might be tuned/reworked to make it easier to get into than in DMC4).
  • Certain styles will have advantages on certain enemies similar to DmC/DMC3 (you can use a single style on any enemy just fine).
  • More environment interactivity than any previous DMC game. This is supposed to compliment the combat system, not detract from it.
  • There is some form of dynamic environment destruction/transformation in play but not on the scale of DmC thus far.
  • While this is not an open world game, some inspirations have been taken from Dragon's Dogma.
A LITTLE UPDATE
  • PlayStation 4 first, PC later
  • Unreal Engine 4
  • Third playable character is most likely Vergil

Their 3 most recent non-Souls games:
Monster Hunter Diary: Poka Poka Airou Village - No meta (2015 for 3DS)
Armored Core: Verdict Day - 66  (2013)
Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor-38  (2012)
Yeah but that was the pre souls era. Now they have the resources, quality and fame to produce higher quality games.

To be more precise, he talked about Take-two's lack of plans for E3, at least for what concerns new games. Slatoff confirmed that the publisher, which includes 2K Games and Rockstar Games, isn't planning to show any new games at the show in Los Angeles. This comes just after the company revealed (https://www.dualshockers.com/take-two-strong-results/) that a "highly-anticipated title from one of 2K's biggest franchises" has been delayed to fiscal year 2020, which means between April 1st, 2019 and March 31st, 2020. While no official confirmation has come from Take-Two, this game is widely believed to be Borderlands 3.Click to expand...

Pick your top 2 conferences and bottom 2 conferences based off how you expect E3 to go. Give a reason and then post the new tally.

Xbox -1 cause it seems like another year like last
PC -1 cause their shows rarely have more than a few interesting moments
Devolver +1 cause it's devolver
Nintendo +1 cause they somehow have been great at E3 for 3 years in a row

PC -1, I don't really like their shows anyways.  

EA -1- I don't really like sports games.  Even optimistically this will be among my least favorite.  

Nintendo +1, big games guaranteed.  Show off smash, and I'm sure something else will be shown.  

Bethesda +1, this one has more to do with how pessimistic I am about most of the other shows.

EA -1: They have absolutely terrible conferences, every year.

MS -1: They have been completely mediocre this entire generation and I see no reason why that would change this year.

Sony +1: Even without any big 1st party surprises, Sony looks to have the most exciting showing, Aside from them I don't expect this to be a particularly interesting E3 year.

Square +1: Pretty much the only other conference that even interests me this year, due the possibilities of KH3, FF7R and me still having a soft spot for Square.

How I expect E3 to go for me on a personal level or in general?

Cause for example Microsoft can announce bioshock 4, resident evil 8, halo 6, gears 5, Forza 8, and team fortress 3 all exclusive to them. And I wouldn't give a rat's dog even though that would be an epic showing overall

So is the game scored catering to me or showings in general.

Personal, but you can personally like a show even if it's not a game you'll play. FF7R for example was an awesome announcement imo and I loved it, but I don't care at all about it.

+1 Sony: This one is obvious. Even though we know about most of their upcoming games, we still haven't seen much at all from many, like TLou2, Ghost of tushima and spider-man needs to show us more villains! I do expect some surprises here too as always

+1 Nintendo: They have to announce a lot to make up for the almost complete lack of games so far in 2018. I do expect them to show Smash and announce Pokémon so that's something.

-1 Microsoft: They really don't seem to get what the gaming community wants this gen. I expect that to continue with announcements of their usual forza, halo, gears etc.

-1 Square Enix: Kingdom Hearts III is finally on the horizon but I expect not much else to be shown. FfVII remake still very far off. They take their time, but it hasn't paid off in the past 2 generations.

Bathesda +1: we know one thing coming from bathesda so far which is Rage 2. While I am not hyped a lot for it I do think it will add to their show. A double announcement of Starfield and Doom 5 would be amazing. A new sci-fi RPG from bathesda would cause a huge amount of hype.

Ubisoft +1: I'm extremely excited for beyond good and evil. And since last year's E3 I been wanting to see more and more of it. It's extremely ambitious and interesting. Skull and Bones will be there too and I want more of that as well. I hope they announce something unexpected too.

PC -1: their shows always suck. Simple as that

Square -1: I don't expect to see the avengers project at this E3. And if it did, don't expect it any time soon. These are the Devs who announced KH3 before the gen even fudgy started and it still didn't release. Ohh and another Tomb Raider... Eh... Yay?

Nintendo - definitely a +1 from me. They have a lot of games to show like Metroid, Pokemon and Smash. Fans always love it, and they always bring the fun. Its going to be great.

Ubisoft - another +1 mainly due to how good they were last year. Its always a fun conference to watch, and I'm excited to see what they have in store.

PC - I don't get why this is included, its basically necessary to give this -1. These shows are a snoozefest with not much interesting happening.

EA -1, this was between xbox and EA for me. I think EA just takes it due to their much more boring conference style. I hope xbox have some good things to show, but I think it'll be close between these two.

I wanted to give Devolver a +1 but I think it'll be too short to really merit it, plus it'll be hard topping last years.

Sony I am probably most interested in, but I know what they're bringing already so its not really going to be anything to be hyped or excited about. Just some good new gameplay.

Coolio. You've called them Bathesda a bunch as of late so I was starting to wonder if it had a deeper meaning.

I just hope they care about people without friends and don't make it too multiplayer focused.

Lol I need to pay more attention when typing their name then.

Yeah that's my biggest concern and fear. From what they are saying it seems it will be good playing it alone. But we can't really know at this stage.

And my other concern is they are biting off more than they can chew, they said everything is hand made and there is no procedural generation, which after no man's sky and what happened with Mass effect Andromeda, is a good thing IMO. But it makes me wonder how they are gonna a pull it off. They are limiting the number of world's, but still the area to generate and make is massive.

I'm assuming they'll use "controlled" procedural generation. NMS and Minecraft do everything with procedural generation and must solely rely on their algorithms. With this game they can do a pass with procedural generation and then go in by hand to fix things up and make sure it's really good. Saves time but doesn't really compromise the quality of the game.

Mass Effect Andromeda didn't really use procedural generation. It suffered from good ol fashion asset reuse.

Yeah a good example of procedural generation you are talking about is Horizon.  They used procedural generation to place plants etc. and then went in by hand to fixe and make things better.

+1 Sony:  TLOU Part 2, Death Stranding, and Ghost!! NUFF SAID!!

True, I think most people hear procedural generation and assume they might mean something like NMS.  But that's mostly the fault of those type of games pushing procedural generation a lot.

I do know Naughty Dog hand places most of their foliage.  I watched a video with Jacob Norris where he was talking about them having to hand place foliage.  Plus they build all their levels and shaders within maya and then export to their engine.

E3 2018 finalized floor plans now available | ResetEra (https://www.resetera.com/threads/e3-2018-finalized-floor-plans-now-available.44374/)

I figured a new thread was better than using the old one as that didn't feature finalized plans. I searched but found no other thread on this topic. On May 23, 2018, The ESA/Map Your Show published finalized floor plans for E3 2018. These are interactive and available at https://mp1630k065.mapyourshow.com/7_0/floorplan/?navbarlink=1. Below are South Hall, West Hall and Permanent Meeting Rooms. The Concourse Hall has been omitted as it is of lesser interest, but can of course be viewed via the link above.(https://abload.de/img/mp1630k065_floorplan-t2ue1.png)(https://abload.de/img/mp1630k065_floorplan-bvu9h.png)(https://abload.de/img/mp1630k065_floorplan-peuq6.png) Note that booth 5644 in West Hall is reserved by Nintendo. In earlier booth lists they had booth 5636 as well. Sony had booth 4244 earlier, but current lists do not seem they have it anymore (could be changed of course). Microsoft is represented as Mixer (booth 1023 in South Hall), but they have their own show at the Microsoft Theater across the street from the Los Angeles Convention Center (LACC) as well.https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2018/04/18/xbox-at-e3-2018/ Nintendo had in one version of the booth listings the 411 theater:(https://abload.de/img/theater_08-2015_007qjun2.png) It is not listed under Nintendo anymore but considering the company has used this theater for several consecutive years at E3 I see no reason to believe they won't use it again this year. E3 2018 is scheduled to take place June 12-14 in Los Angeles Convention Center. Connected press conferences of Bethesda, Devolver Digital, Electronic Arts, Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony and Ubisoft start on Saturday, June 9 and continue over the weekend up to the start of the expo on June 12.

Saw this posted in another thread, if you go to Xbox's E3 site, there's now an "add to calendar" button for the conference and it's 1 PM PT-3 PM PT. This means the conference will be about 18 minutes longer than last year which was 1 hour and 42 minutes of which the first 10 minutes was Xbox One X reveal. So all in all, 28-30 more minutes of games (compared to last year) when you combine the 18 minutes of time + the fact that there's no new hardware to be revealed this year. Source: go to http://Https://Xbox.com/e3 and press the "add to calendar" button.

With the evolution of E3, now including fans and extended show hours, we saw an opportunity to create an entirely new show experience reaching E3 attendees and those that are following the show from afar. With that, in collaboration with the Entertainment Software Association, the organizers of E3, we're excited to announce that Xbox will be taking over the Microsoft Theater, a perfectly situated space located in the heart of L.A. Live and across the street from the Los Angeles Convention Center (LACC). The Microsoft Theater will be home to official E3 events like the Xbox E3 2018 Briefing on June 10, 2018 at 1PM PT, various Xbox FanFest activities, hands-on gameplay and demos for all E3 attendees and more. Not only does the Microsoft Theater allow us to centralize our Xbox presence at E3, but it's size enables us to include even more fans and partners in the Xbox E3 2018 Briefing than ever before. In addition to the Microsoft Theater, we'll also continue to have a meaningful presence at the LACC with a new booth completely dedicated to Mixer, where you can play, stream and interact with games and catch the latest E3 news live throughout the entire week.Click to expand...
So Mixer on the show floor, Xbox outside in their own building. That explains the floor plans.

Lol remember when Xbox's biggest ever year in history was with the games Halo 5, Gears UE, Forza, Tomb Raider & Fable Legends.

A decent Halo entry that was a letdown for some, a remaster, a racing game also on PC, a timed exclusive and a game which was cancelled. I'll never believe them saying best ever. I don't get why they keep doing it.

You need to schedule your life around E3. Start planning for 2019 ;)

no clue.

Nintendo spent a couple years at this theater (then called Nokia theater). They did a similar thing and also had demo booths available on the stage after the show
(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b2/E3_2010_Nintendo_Media_Event_-_Legend_of_Zelda_Skyward_Sword_demo_machines_rise_from_the_floor.jpg)

Now Nintendo does digital shows.

Sony had been in the LA Memorial Sports Arena for years. However this arena was demolished in 2016 to be converted to a soccer stadium, so Sony moved back to the Shrine Auditorium. Sony last used this place in 2010.

Microsoft has been at the Galen Center since forever. This is the first time they'll be using a different e3 venue in a long time. The reasoning seems to be that they want to make it more of a fan event and let fans demo the games directly after the show.

Nothing suggests or implies that this is an upgrade to their E3 show from an announcements point of view.

That wasn't biggest ever. It was the best line up in Xbox history. Get your spinning right.

I believe they will have a good E3 and some surprises. They had a few shame E3s in a row now it's bound to have a good one now.

Called Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee. Pokemon yellow remakes, tied into pokemon Go. That seems to be the jist of it. There's some details which may or may not be true, but they're from a separate leaker and details line up:

Weather has been really nice and hot in London in May. Last few days have been awful though, just constant thunderstorms. Sunday evening there was lightning with frequency I've never seen before, literally every couple of seconds for a prolonged period of time. It was mad. Today there's been intermittent lightening and thunder.

It's basically the wettest May ever for us, and therefore the worst. What's most maddening though is that record temperatures are being recorded in Scandinavia

Some developments on Pokemon. The two games this year aren't really main games it seems (the lets go eevee and pikachu). The proper Switch pokemon RPG is coming next year.

Anyways, this years games are being announced in around 6 hours time.

Edit: oh and the lets go games are very unlikely to be a new gen. Next year's games will start gen 8.

Double edit: since this is weird, just confirming the games are made by Game Freak. So they are mainline, whatever they do turn out to be.

Source is here which has a better list of all the theaters! (https://blog.us.playstation.com/2018/05/31/playstation-e3-experience-2018-live-in-theaters-june-11/) Attendees this year will take home an exclusive poster and some other goodies. Want more than just physical swag? We've got you covered -- everyone will also get a digital gift basket chock-full of treats. This year digital goods will be distributed via the Experience PlayStation app (http://www.playstation.com/exp-app), so make sure to download it before you arrive at the theater if you want to redeem them immediately.Sounds great, how do I attend? Tickets are free and will be available at starting on Tuesday, June 5th at 11:00 AM PDT while supplies last. Check back here for the link. I highly recommend setting a reminder, because once the tickets are gone - they're gone. This year tickets for all regions will be available at the same ticketing site. Registering for a ticket will reserve your seat as long as you check in at the theater 30 minutes before show time. If you don't check in by this time your seat will be released to non-ticketed fans (who have queued for a seat) on a first-come first-served basis. Please note: Attendees must be 17 years of age or older to attend this event (18+ in Brazil). A valid form of ID providing age will be required to enter.

In fact, we've heard rumors that Microsoft could announce up to three Gears games, including a traditional sequel, a real-time strategy title in the style of Halo Wars and a battle royale game. Perhaps the franchise will get traction with the larger user base on Windows 10.Click to expand...

We've heard and read rumors about a handful of unannounced games, like sequels to Bloodborne and Horizon Zero Dawn, along with another remake of a PlayStation classic (maybe Syphon Filter) and an upgraded PlayStation VR headset. But with so many games to promote and ship in the next 12 months, and God of War DLC still a question mark, Sony will probably hold most major reveals for future events.Click to expand...

Japan Studio have to announce something. Let's look at the recent statements over the past couple of years:

Japanese PlayStation Developers Tease New Games and Projects, Promise New Info on Mobile Wild Arms

Bloodborne Producer Teruyuki Toriyama, who recently worked on No Heroes Allowed! VR, teased that in 2018 he wants to take on new challenges such as the announcement of an ambitious game and the start of full-scale development of a new project in the concept phase.

LocoRoco Creator Tsutomu Kouno mentioned that there are many painful and sad events nowadays, and we are in a period of change. So he feels that people need more laughter to help overcome such painful times. While the PS4 remaster of LocoRoco and LocoRoco 2 were released in 2017, Kouno-san has not been able to release a completely new game for a while, but in 2018 he would like to announce a new title, and he'll do his best to help heal the world a little.

https://www.dualshockers.com/sony-playstation-japan-new-games-wild-arms/ (https://www.dualshockers.com/sony-playstation-japan-new-games-wild-arms/)

Onto RaySpace - trademarked in 2017 and rumoured to be a Space RPG.

Ruin4r (an insider) said in 2015 that Sony would announce:


Dead don't ride (Days Gone)
TLOU2
Crash Bandicoot
Unnamed Space Project
New God of War
The Last Guardian

All of these have come true just they did not drop in 2015, he also said before the one in 2017 SOTC would get a remake so clearly this guy knows his onions. Everyone assumed the space project was Naughty Dog but it seems it is Japan Studio's new I.P.

Fast forward to 2018 where we got tweets:

Jon Webb‏ @therealjonwebb (https://twitter.com/therealjonwebb)
Great week visiting the team in Tokyo once again, compete with #hanami (https://twitter.com/hashtag/hanami?src=hash)! With so much talent and passion for gaming around the world, even more greatness awaits @PlayStation (https://twitter.com/PlayStation)!

Shawn Layden and Scott Rodhe were also there. The team in Tokyo must refer to Japan Studio as they are owned by Sony and would have stated if it was Death Stranding. Nope this is Japan Studio's moment to shine this year.

Back in 2016 Famitsu got hints of their next project:

Following was Yasuhiro Kitao, who is in charge of advertisement for Sony Interactive Entertainment. Kitao said that he didn't have any images to show, but revealed some text from his tablet, to which Hayashi responded with "Whoa, hahahaha," "Whoa, awesome!," "Crazy, I got the shivers!," and "This is amazing! Amazing, amazing amazing."



Again, no other information other than his reaction was revealed, but going based on the reaction alone, Game Jouhou suggests that it could perhaps be a sequel to a known title or something related to one. Considering they didn't have any images to show, it'll probably be a while until we get a proper announcement for SIE's own mystery title.

Japan Studio's is definitely being announced this year and it will be ambitious and different anything Sony have ever done.

He knew it and I don't think Dead Don't ride ever trademarked too. The guy knows his stuff he told Reddit for E3 2017 to not get too hyped for Sony's as it will only show SOTC and Monster Hunter as big announcements. He also knew Ellie would be much older in TLOU PT 2 too. He knows his onions.

I'm just a lot more pessimistic nowadays with insiders since I've started seeing the other side of the industry.

Since my post I looked it up and yeah now I'm remembering that person specifically. They're even included in this thread. (http://vizioneck.com/forum/index.php?msg=157137)

Henrik is a user on Resetera, who seems obsessed with Sony Japan, that entire thing Horizon posted earlier about Sony Japan, I guarantee you that he got all of that from Henrik, who regularly posts this stuff in the Sony first party thread over there.

I find him annoying because he's writing all his posts not like they're speculation but like he's posting facts.

He basically created that "rumor" about Rayspace being a Sony Japan space JRPG out of nothing.

Its attitudes like this which ruin e3 for me. If you go in expecting things to show up, you're only either satisfied or disappointed and nothing more. The best part of e3 is being shocked and surprised by things.

Leaks make it all worse, for sure.

No you shouldn't. Sony then them selfs said they were focusing on games that they already announced regarding world wide studios. And new announcements from third parties. They wouldn't say that if they had big games to announce.

Just because they announced they are focusing on 4 big games does not mean they won't have at least one announcement. Even in PSX they announced MediEvil remake/remaster and they had couches talking games lol. Expecting one announcement from them is not exactly setting my expectations up. If they didn't have anything to announce they could do the deep dives with youtube videos. Regardless if they don't announce anything it doesn't matter as I am very happy with the 4 games they are focusing on.

Modern Sony is so dumb. They're at their A game with games yet their conferences aren't as fun as earlier in this gen. Remember when they had to have 3 big conferences a year because there was so much to talk about?  :P

Its because they actually used to care about and promote indies. They seem to have completely gotten rid of indie sections in their main conferences. They have side events and stuff like that for indies now instead, but the exposure for them is nowhere near enough.

Couple that with them cutting down on pretty much all talking, and that's a lot of the difference.

Also it seems to me that they're giving third parties less time, pretty much only going with ones they have deals with and even then not giving them much. Like COD used to get 10-15 mins on the MS stage, but Sony gave them 3 minutes last year. And they pretty much don't get any gameplay segments from third parties either, which MS always has a lot of.

All of that is the difference. The less talking is a good change, but the rest of it isn't imo. We don't care about you trimming it down, we're going to watch all of it anyway, just give us lots of gameplay sections and long trailers, and more games!

Also sounds to me like they're going to get worse this e3, with them saying the show is focusing on their 4 big upcoming games. Maybe we'll get even fewer indies and third parties.

Its because they actually used to care about and promote indies. They seem to have completely gotten rid of indie sections in their main conferences. They have side events and stuff like that for indies now instead, but the exposure for them is nowhere near enough.

Couple that with them cutting down on pretty much all talking, and that's a lot of the difference.

Also it seems to me that they're giving third parties less time, pretty much only going with ones they have deals with and even then not giving them much. Like COD used to get 10-15 mins on the MS stage, but Sony gave them 3 minutes last year. And they pretty much don't get any gameplay segments from third parties either, which MS always has a lot of.

All of that is the difference. The less talking is a good change, but the rest of it isn't imo. We don't care about you trimming it down, we're going to watch all of it anyway, just give us lots of gameplay sections and long trailers, and more games!

Also sounds to me like they're going to get worse this e3, with them saying the show is focusing on their 4 big upcoming games. Maybe we'll get even fewer indies and third parties.
Funny how we've come full circle now. People uses to complaint hard about all the indie exposure at Sonys conferences  (remember Indiestation?) and third party multiplats were viewed as wasted time as well since they appear on all platforms anyways.

I still think that way, most indie games I played over the last years turned out to be way overhyped anyways. To me 2016 is still Sonys best conference yet and probably the best conference I've seen to date.

Which indie games did you play? The past few years I've been way more interested in them than AAA games.

Also I do remember indiestation  :'(

Off the top of my head Axiom Verge, Celeste, Golf Story, Stardew Valley and Shovel Knight. Out of those Celeste is the only one that comes close to deserving the praise it's gotten.

Eh I don't give a shame about the people complaining about indiestation and all that. Indies deserve some time in the spotlight, it's too hard for them to get an audience a lot of the time and that can help a lot.

2016 was great, it was still shorter though. But it had some great new announcements and gameplay showings. I think if tthey filled out the other 20 minutes with more games like third parties and/ or an indie section it'd beat 2015 for me.

One thing I really didn't like was their "one last thing" being gameplay for days gone. I got excited for another game to be announced/ shown and it was just that. Left a big sense of disappointment immediately after the conference for me.

Sony conference prediction.

TLOU2 gameplay - it'll be awesome but not too big a change from the first game
Death Stranding gameplay - who has any clue what this will be like ;D
Ghost of Tsushima gameplay - gimme some samurai!
Spiderman trailer - they showed gameplay last year so I'm thinking it'll be a story trailer this year.
COD gameplay - it'll probably be multiplayer but maybe they'll show zombies too, or perhaps even reveal the BR mode fully
Destiny expansion trailer - this is obligatory, right?
Red dead trailer/ gameplay reveal - I really hope its gameplay but I don't think they will show any. If Red Dead is at e3 they'll be at Sony's show
Exclusive announcement - perhaps a game Japan Studio has been working on, or another surprise
Third party announcements - maybe one or two. DMC5 might be here, plus something else.
VR section - it'll show some VR games we already know about that are coming to PS VR, maybe 2 or 3 new smaller games announced here.

Length - 75 mins. I'm hoping they don't cut it short to an hour like last year but I can't see them going straight back to 90.

^oh just so everyone knows, Naughty Dog is using quixel megascans now.  They are listed on their site.  So I'm assuming they are using it for TLOU 2.  So get ready for some super duper realism in the game.

Yes. I know what this is.

I'm guessing that's how they made trailer 2 look so good.

Yeah they must be moving away from their stylized realism look they went for in the uncharted games and TLOU.  Plus it's a lot faster for development as well, because they won't have to go through and hand paint all their textures like before.

There was a facebook post with the Sony e3 teaser video and so many of the comments are just so dumb. Loads of people saying "we already know about all of those games, I'm not going to watch if they're not announcing anything" ... oh yeah sure they're going to put their surprise announcements in this teaser trailer to show you what you're going to be surprised by if you watch the show...

Why are so many people so dumb :'(

Yeah but most of these people are claiming to be proper fans and all that, not just random ignorant people. Also people on facebook are real, I was just mainly complaining about people being dumb, I'm fully aware I should expect it in comment sections.

It's funny because you really don't notice it as much until you go online, because the people you're around most of the time are in a similar position as you I guess. Similar education, age, experiences. When viewing comments online by lots of people you have no connection with it can be a shock!

I'd say it's because being a game fan and being a game industry fan are different things. Millions of people play games all the time and tune in for E3, but a significantly smaller amount of people read about the boring things outside the big announcements.

Plus being on the internet exposes people to different situations. You might think your friend is normal, only to find out they post about how the moonlanding was faked on facebook.

This is a big factor.  
Even people that do read about the announcements, very few of them think about those announcements before they are made.

A couple years ago we hosted a birthday party for a relative during Sony's show. Somehow even if you work at home and plan ahead, stuff still comes up.

Well EAs conferences are usually boring. It's better to just watch the highlights or want you're interested after rather than watching the show live.

My Uni newspaper had an e3 reference in it today, in the satirical horoscope section. It was kind of funny to see.

"This week you plan to spend all your time inside, watching live-streams of game announcements from E3 alone and stuffing your face. A bit like every weekend then"

First Brief Official Details on Shadows Die Twice (and FROM's current projects) | ResetEra (https://www.resetera.com/threads/first-brief-official-details-on-shadows-die-twice-and-froms-current-projects.47879/)

 
Quote
The details come from Sepide Donne at FromSoftware in an interview with Zoomg: https://www.zoomg.ir/2018/6/8/275995/fromsoftware-consept-artist-interview/

 The interview is NOT in English, but here's the key points (thanks to Toolifercle for the details, Google Translate for me cross-checking things).

 -Shadows Die Twice is still soulsborne-esque in ways, buuut with totally different gameplay and theme, but they cannot say anymore right now on the specifics.
 -They say the story is deep and fantastic.
 -They're going to show us the actual gameplay this week. It's fresh and again, totally different from Dark Souls.
 -They are working on 3 projects right now. Shadows Die Twice, a new VR game (which will be announced this week as well), and an unannounced game.
 -The wish to release one game in a year as their target for releasing their games right now.

 It's not much and we'll see two of these games very soon, but as the first 'official' word since reveal for Shadows Die Twice I thought it might be topic worthy.
