    So, just a little discussion thread to keep up rolling towards the days until E3 starts, why are you guys going to watch E3 this year? What has always piqued your interested about E3 each year, and how is this E3 any different or the same? Which company are you most interested in watching for games, and why?

    Share any and all thoughts!
     
    I'm looking forward to see what they have in store for us at E3 related to Black Ops 3. I'm a huge fan of its predecessors, as they seemed to have been pretty great to me, and am excited to get a taste how their newest title will be like. I can't put my finger on what as of right now, but something about the Black Ops line in Call of Duty series always caught my interest better than others (Modern Warfare, for example), and that's one of the reasons behind my fondness of it.
     
    I get excited for video game announcements, and tend to go "ah damn I wish I could buy this" type of mood whenever E3 rolls around lol. Idk, I'm always a fan of it. Although, the only thing on my mind is some of the Nintendo titles especially them WiiU games I'll never get and Square Enix. But really, FF XV and KH III and being a nerd for that how am I not curious on what Square Enix will offer?
     
    ^ really looking to see what Squeenix will be up to.
    Also keeping my eye on EA, Ubi and Sony :)
     
    I'm looking forward to seeing Nintendo, as I always do. I'm curious to find out more about Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. I haven't finished Human Revolution yet, but I'm still excited for that one. I'm also wondering if they'll talk about Tom Clancy's The Division, that game looks really cool and I'm gonna be playing with my cousins a bit. I'm a bit disappointed that Bethesda isn't planning on revealing The Elder Scrolls VI, even though it makes more sense that they're going with Fallout 4. It's just because I've never played any Fallout games :X
     
    Waiting on that release date for Yoshi's Woolly World, Nintendo.
     
    I wanna see Fallout 4 announced! I won't actually be able to watch E3 this year unfortunately, but I will be keeping my eyes on the news feeds to see what gets announced.
     
    Mostly anything of Square Enix, to see if they announce Kingdom Hearts 3D HD (its rumored, or speculated), any more information of KHIII, and FFXV. I know they plan to reveal something later this year, its speculated its gonna be at the Disney Expo. D23 in Japan. But wonder if they will tie us over with something new at E3 for us NA fans.

    Atlus, anything related to Persona 5.

    I want to see if Kojima will show up. Just for his fans and talk about his plans for the future of his company, and what he will work on.

    Also want more information from Nintendo about Zelda, and any new games. lol
     
    Always love knowing what new games are coming. I have been kind of blah with E3 the last few years, but I enjoy watching it and discussing it with people. Nintendo and Bethesda are my big interests. Maybe even Valve if they show up. :)
     
    Things I am looking out for, but hopefully, there are new reveals that I haven't anticipated!

    1. New Details on Pokken, Mystery Dungeon, and possible reveal of a new/substantive pokemon game for Wii U.
    2. Localization of Digimon Cyber Sleuth or other mainseries Digimon game (fingers crossed)
    3. New Details on Star Fox Wii U
    4. New Details on Zelda Wii U
    5. New Details on FE X SMT Wii U
    6. New Details on King Hearts 3
    7. DLC - Smash Bros and Mario Kart
    8. New Details on Persona 5
    9. Worthy news on Oculus Rift. Sure, it's cool, but I'd like to see if there is any information as to how the system plans to be incorporated into any console.
    10. Please no more boring sidescrolling 2.5/2 Dimensional platformers. (Yoshi's Wooly World, every DK game after the n64, Kirby and Rainbow Curse, ect.) Those games are just tedious + boring in their attempts to bring forth new mechanics that overcomplicate something that is boring in hopes it makes it seem interesting...I miss Kirby and Crystal Shards.

    Hate to break it to you, but it's confirmed that neither Zelda U nor KH3 are going to be at this year's E3 (KH3 will instead be at the D23 Expo next month). Also, Yoshi hasn't had a solo game since the DS, fans want DK to return to his 2D platformer roots after the countless non-platformer DK games given to us by Paon, and people actually wanted a sequel to Canvas Curse, just like how they want a sequel to Sunshine and Double Dash. Various indie games such as the Mighty No. 9 also shows that people still want side-scrolling platformers so long as their gimmicks are unique.

    Thanks for the heads up on Zelda and KH3! At least news will be on the way shortly.

    I still disagree that fans want a return to 2D Donkey Kong games since it has already been achieved since the last of the 3 lackluster Paon games in 2007 (which didn't offer a fully fleshed out 3d world by ANY means). The best reviewed and most sold games in North America after Donkey Kong Country in 1994 was Donkey Kong 64 (the only fully fleshed out 3d world in the series) which is saying a lot given that the dwarfed console sales of the n64 vs the Wii would suggest that a large percentage of console owners were willing to shell out money for DK64 than DK Country Returns (Wii).

    But to each his own, generally though, the top selling games barring Mario, don't include side-scrollers. It's difficult to stir interest without character development, plot, and a diverse world in linear side-scrolling games with few customizations or variation RELATIVE to fully flesh-out 3d worlds. Sure, the latest kirby and yoshi games have a cute and amazing aesthetic, but evoke little else. I hope to see series reinvent themselves like the Zelda series shift from sidescroller to 3d worlds as well as the short-lived transformation of DK on the 64.
     
    I want my Fallout 4 Collectors Edition to be announced! DAMN IT BETHESDA TAKE MY MONEY!

    And something from Valve would be nice (Half-Life 3) but if I remember they aren't showing this year
     
    I just enjoy the show and love the suspense (and the subsequent surprises). Also, though E3's been getting better, mishaps are always a joy. I'm not particularly looking forward to anything, but I know I'll come out of it happier than I went in.

    *cough*TheLastGuardian*cough*

    Valve would be all mysterious and hype up their conference and it would end up being more content for Dota.

    At this point, Half-Life 3 definitely needs a completely separate event just for the reveal.

    *cough*TheLastGuardian*cough*

    There are rumors that Last Guardian is finally going to show up at E3. I hope it's true, because after the warm response which The Order 1886 got, Sony is gonna need a killer exclusive to remain on top.
