Forums - Gaming Discussion - Prediction E3 2014 for Sony and Microsoft.

This years E3 will be pivotal for both Sony and Microsoft as they will look win consumers over with exclusive games, strong 3rd party support, and exclusive content.  Going into this years E3 Microsoft has the most to prove, while Sony is looking to solidify their lead over the competition.  Before I go into the predictions themselves, here are a few key factors to consider:

-Microsoft still has several unannounced 1st party studios.

-The Playstation 4 is currently outselling the Xbox One in all territories.

-Microsoft will be preparing to launch the Xbox One in new territories.

-Both Playstation and Xbox have had some Executives come and go. Jack Trenton left Playstation, Don Mattric & Marc Whitten both left Xbox, and Phil Spencer is the new head of Xbox.

Now, finally, I think that both Microsoft and Sony are going to have stellar E3 showings, the winner will likely come down not just to what is shown, but how it is shown, and how good the games end up being.

**Notes:

-I don't have any insider information, everything you see above is pure speculation on my part.

-for thoes wondering about LXP, and the other "unanounced studio" I mentioned for Microsoft's conference, Microsoft anounced last E3 that they had started 5 new 1st party studios.  LXP stands for Leap Experience Pioneers, and is a name of one of thier unanounced studios that was leaked.

-Also, while it is possible that Sony will show the delayed exclusive Deep Down at E3, I personally don't think that they will as it curently does not have a planned western release, and did not show up at last year's E3.

I still believe UC4 is coming this year. DClub TOrder are nice but UC4 is the holiday Juggernaut, no amount of marketing hype whatever will make those two even half of what Uncharted is.

Sony migth show more then they normally would, they will want to counter any positive reaction to MS stuff they can.

GT7 teaser, Meadia Molecule game and God of War (ps) 4 would be a great salvo.



Sony will have at least 2 new game announcements as well as some big plus games coming within the year I expect. They'll probably have a multiplat announcement at their conference (Mad Max, FF15, and KH3 last year). Before those probably some gameplay from stuff we haven't seen it from or haven't seen it from for awhile.

I want only one game reveal from the big three.

Sony - Legend of Dragoon 2
Nintendo - Metroid Prime 4
Microsoft - Banjo 3

Give me these games and it will be the greatest E3 ever.

Order of likelihood greatest to least is Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony on that one.

Sony
-Will Reveal several games coming within the next year: New RPG(possibly WRPG), Crash Bandicoot's return, Exclusive Multiplayer Action Game
-World Reveal of some 3rd Party Game that will pretend to be exclusive for the show, Resident Evil 7
-Older Games Detailed: The Order 1886 new trailer/info, Uncharted PS4 detailed and dated for holiday, Destiny, DriveClub, The Last of Us Remastered
-New Features Detailed: Morpheus VR further explained/hint at pricing. DriveClub demonstrated with VR. Playstation NOW fully revealed and slated to release sometime around conference, allows games to be easily demoed from any system.
-Brief Spin of Vita Situation: Show off Freedom Wars, Soul Sacrifice Delta, Gravity Rush 2, Murasaki Baby Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines. Reveal FF Type-0 coming to Vita as well as some other huge 3rd Party title (Another AC or MH). A plethora of indie titles re-affirmed. All probably perfectly packaged in a single montage.

Microsoft
-Will Show Several NEW games. At least 2, most likely slated for this year.
-Re Affirming older stuff: Quantum Break info/gameplay, Sunset Overdrive release 2014, Halo 2 Anniversary Holiday 2014

-Real of 3rd Party Multiplats: COD, BF, AC, Batman, The Witcher 3, KH3, FFXV, Elder Scrolls Online
-Will reveal a VR initiative to rival Morpheus. Used in junction with Kinect.
-I fully expect some theatrics to detract from their show's weak points
-Speech about how they have changed their stances and pursuing indie and 3rd party vigorously.
