E3 2016 Hype!

[Legend]

We already have a release date for gears 4.

Yeah, the announcement is literally just the PC port.

Microsoft would do that.

[DerNebel]

Guess I'll make one too.

XBOX

• Cold open with Gears 4 co-op gameplay. Basically a cookie cutter repeat of how they showed Halo 5 last year.
• Phil comes on stage saying how awesome Gears looks, and that he's so proud to be bringing all these amazing games to the fans.
• His shirt has the Cuphead logo.
• Phil gives a quick recap of the past year and how amazing XBOX has done thanks to Halo and backwards compatibility. He uses this moment to announce 100 more BC games are available right now!
• Walks off stage and a trailer for the new Battlefield starts playing. It is Battlefield 5 and set in the future. Trailer shows space n stuff. Seems they're reusing Battlefront laser assets. December release date is announced.
• New trailer starts. It's Watch_Dogs_2 set in San Francisco. Trailer ends and some Ubisoft rep walks out to talk about the game a bit and say more will be shown at their press conference later in the day.
• Out of nowhere a car comes driving out on stage and a Forza logo pops on screen. Turn10 director Dan Greenawalt steps out of the car and makes a lame joke about it. Talks about Forza 6 Apex and how Forza is just so perfect for PC. Then he makes another lame joke about how we want to see something new, so a trailer starts for Forza Horizon 3. This time it's set across all of North America. Releases day and date with PC.
• Scalebound gets a new trailer and it looks pretty great. Release date is announced for November.
• In a strange turn of events, a large crowd of indie devs all emerge on stage together. A trailer for cuphead plays, and a spotlight highlights the developer. This continues in rapid succession getting all the indie games Microsoft needs to advertise. Lots of the devs don't even have their games shown, but Microsoft wants it to look like indies are flocking to them. The crowd is awkwardly shuffled off stage.
• Phil Spencer emerges in the audience as a distraction while that finishes up. His shirt is now a Conker one. Talks about how great indies are, and how they've recently made every XBOX a dev kit. Then goes on to praise Windows 10 and how it's just so awesome for devs and gamers alike. He uses this moment to drop the bombshell. They're releasing the XBOX operating system for free so anyone can turn their powerful PC into an XBOX. It'll play all digital XBOX ONE games and all Windows 10 games, the perfect merger! He also announces a steambox like program where Microsoft will sell select prebuilt PCs with the software already set up.
• Halo Wars 2 trailer showing off PC and XBOX gameplay.
• Sea of Thieves trailer.
• Shadow of Mordor 2 announcement trailer.
• Phil walks back out on stage and thanks everyone for an awesome show. He is now in a Kameo t shirt. However he hypes everyone up and says there's one last thing to announce...
• Gears 4 logo on screen with release date. Shifts to the left as "XBOX and PC" fade from black.
• That's their big ender, go home.

PlayStation

• Cold open with Horizon Zero Dawn. Live gameplay demo showing more of the gameplay loop than just fighting robot dinosaurs. Ends with a new trailer and a release date for November.
• Shawn Layden walks out on stage with a full on beard and an even more casual appearance than PSX. Does the boilerplate introduction.
• Dreams gets a short new trailer, and the beta is announced for August.
• Gran Turismo Sport gets a trailer, and its beta goes live after the show.
• Uncharted 4 gets some DLC announced.
• Someone sneaks on stage and talks about PlayStation Vue and non gaming stuff.
• Call of Duty (announced already) gets a PlayStation specific trailer.
• Battlefront has Deathstar DLC announced.
• Adam Boyes walks on stage and talks about how amazing last E3 was.
• FF7R gets a trailer.
• Shenmue 3 gets a trailer.
• Crash Bandicoot gets a trailer. It's co-developed and trash, but the fans are happy.
• Last guardian gets a live gameplay demo.
• Shuhei Yoshida walks on stage. Talks about the last Guardian and how it's been a long journey. Announces the game is releasing in September.
• Bend's new game is announced, it's a horror game that supports VR.
• This leads into the VR section where a montage of VR games are shown.
• New Prince of Persia is announced.
• New game from Warner Bros is announced.
• New game from famous indie dev is announced.
• FFXV gets a trailer.
• KH3 gets a trailer and release date. March 2017.
• Andrew House walks on stage. He has a very open talk about the balance of offering consumers the best hardware at the cheapest costs. Announces PS4K is stupid and that Sony isn't doing it.
• GOW4 is announced. It's Kratos still in Greece! The fans rejoice!!!
• Show's over.

Nintendo

• Skips E3.

I smell some cynicism, where is that coming from?

Also wasn't Scalebound already pushed out of 2016?

I'd be pretty happy with both shows  

Yeah forgot about scalebound.

Microsoft's show will be so freaking interesting just seeing which direction they go.

I was mostly talking about the "Nintendo skips E3" part and a little bit about your end for MS' show, which seems kinda underwhelming, even though I think it would create some amusing reactions.

I ran out of time for Nintendo.

 Maybe we will finally see footage of Recore and new game announcements.

Yeah, PS4k is real  

[Horizon]

I don't think we will see Sucker Punch's game announced. That will be either PSX 2016 or E3 2017.

I don't think we will see Sucker Punch's game announced. That will be either PSX 2016 or E3 2017.

their game has been in development for 2 years already, they already have an engine ready for PS4, and already have a main character and new story line for that character with delsin.

i could see Sony wanting to hold back their announcement for PGW, to spread out announcements. but i think no way will it be held until E3 2017, unless its a new IP and they are taking their sweet time with it. but i expect the game to be released before E3 2017. 3 years of dev time is the same they took with IFSS, but now they have an engine ready.

Sucker Punch deserve a longer time for development and if it is a new I.P they take longer to make, so they could have been in pre-production for a while, so I expect it to be announced late 2016 or 2017. Plus Sony really do not need them this year. All focus on new reveals should be Bend and Santa Monica at E3, Japan Studio's new game at Tokyo Game show and maybe a new game from Guerilla Cambridge at PGW. Plus Sony need to give time to Horizon,TLG, Gravity Rush 2, GT Sport, Dreams, Ni No Kuni 2 and Detroit Become Human across those 3 conferences plus third party, that is a lot to cover so they should leave Sucker Punch till 2017 for me.
