you no what
nintendo buys exclusivity to fallout 4 and mass effect 4 and everyone is forced to buy a wii u

I believe this really deserves its own thread. It's fascinating how LiveTreehouse was a hit despite not being the first livestream. Maybe people don't care about them, except LiveTreehouse and the traditional livestream of the conferences. But that must be disscused at other point.

That was a damn good reveal. Too bad the game didn't live up to it, at least imo.

Out of recent reveals, Zelda U and Fire Emblem are my favorite. They were extremely classy and well put together.

I think Nintendo, followed my Sony in my mind.

However I think Microsoft might actually have best in show.

Outside of personal preferences, i'd say either Nintendo or MS will "win" E3. I'm expecting Sony to spread their announcements out more than the other two, so while they have a chance of winning for the year overall, E3 doesn't seem likely. All three should have a great showing though ^^

well how about this.  even if nintendo has something cool to show that i should legitimately be excited about (i.e. zelda) nintendo is very likely to destroy all hype for me by framing the announcement in with stupid statements like, "look how the horse isn't running into trees.  so exciting!!" or "and we added features like a metallic sound that tells the players they made a direct hit" or "look how time slows down as we dismount the horse".   next time maybe they tell me all about how the camera can be moved around to let me look around the environment...

nintendo couldn't sell water in a desert these days..

Nintendo, after seeing last year I think they've figured out how to dominate E3 without a press conference.

seriously.

for a site that isn't investing in improvements it amazes me how every so often existing features stop working.

it annoys the hell out of me that on this chart (http://www.vgchartz.com/tools/hw_date.php) the "1m" button stopped working and crashes my browser like a year ago.   ...and then like 3-4 months ago the "3m" button stopped working too.

Ouya will win it. They'll finally be allowed inside instead of only in the parking lot lol

Impossible to say at this point. As others have mentioned, Sony have four major conferences throughout the year where they need to announce new content to get people excited, and Nintendo has regular Directs where they announce new games. In comparison, MS only have E3 and Gamescom, so they can afford to throw everything they have at those two events. That doesn't mean they will have nothing else throughout the year, as their announcements of Forza Horizon 2 and Forza 6 prove, but it is an advantage nonetheless if you are simply comparing E3 shows.

Nintendo are hardest to predict in terms of new games I think, there seem to be less rumours around their upcoming games, unless I have missed them. Maybe a new Metroid, maybe a re-reveal of Fire Emblem X SMT, hopefully some cool new IP like Splatoon.

Microsoft will have a Gears announcement, whether that is a remastered trilogy or the new game in the series. Perhaps both, with a short teaser for the latter. Maybe Battletoads and/or Banjo will be there, and they will have a couple of third party exclusives. The new studios MS created are all apparently making HoloLens games, which is disappointing for me, and I doubt we will see any of them at E3. More info on Scalebound, Crackdown 3 and QB will be welcomed.

Sony are rumoured to have GG's new RPG Horizon, a JRPG from Sony Japan, Media Molecule's new IP, Quantic Dream's new IP, Sony Bend's open world horror game, a new Sly Cooper game, and colloborations with Sega and Level 5 in the works, and a selection of those will no doubt be present among a few surprises. New info on Street Fighter V, God of War IV, Drawn to Death and WILD is also likely.

Looking pretty good overall. I couldn't pick a winner at this stage
