| TornadoCreator said: I've seen a few people doing this on various sites and I decided to follow suit a little. Here are 12 predictions I'm making. Some of which are pretty solid, some are outlandish, but I think they're all possible. ---------------------------------------- #1 - Capcom will declare section 9 bankruptsy before the end of the year, and will sell the rights to various franchises. Nintendo will buy Mega Man. Umm no. Why would they? #2 - The Playstation Vita will become a sleeper hit in the handheld market due to a combination of decent games, remakes, and PS4 intergration making it desirable to more people. It'll top 12 million units by the end of the year. Number is too high, but the Vita will carve itself out a nice niche as a remote play/indie machine. #3 - Microsoft will announce that they're discontinuing the Xbox 360, they will also name a date for switching off Xbox Live for 360s. Both will be announced before the end of the year. Not a chance. #4 - Square Enix will tentatively announce or at least heavily hint at a remake for Final Fantasy VII. No details, no date, no gameplay will be shown. Too early. #5 - The Last Guardian will re-appear and it'll be announced that it's coming to PS4 rather than PS3, there will be a massive fan outcry. No release date will be given though. I expect it at E3, but I expect it at every E3. #6 - Titanfall will release with moderate success, but will have server issues as most online games do and people will act like it's a massive betrayal. All but a small dedicated fanbase will fall away after 6 months or so and by the end of the year no-one will care about it. Heh this would be funny if true. #7 - Nintendo will announce an attachement that will allow you to play 3DS games on the Wii U. No point in this. #8 - Valve will fail to release Half-Life 3 for yet another year. Obvious. #9 - Wii U will break 10 million sales by the end of the year. Third party games will still suffer though, selling statistically less than on other consoles. Yeah maybe. #10 - The Playstation 3 will remain relevant, even outselling the Xbox One globally in 2014. It will outsell the 360, but not the XBO. #11 - Brazil will change it's import laws, though not as much as people want. This will open up Brazil as a new market for consoles. Nope. #12 - World Of Warcraft will announce record levels of people unsubscribing and will have the lowest number of players since Burning Crusade. I don't even know the current sub numbers. ---------------------------------------- So, what do you guys think? Are my predictions decent? Stupid? Inspired? Do you agree? Disagree? etc. |
Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
