Sony seem to have learnt their lesson when it comes to announcing to early but we saw Scalebound and Crackdown CG trailers from Microsoft this year which are both 2016, and we know about Gears (16/17). Those games will no doubt be there next year but when it comes to new games to show this can't be a good indication. Nintendo don't generally show games so early and we know none of the game Sony will be releasing in 2016, which seems like a good idea to me.

no

Last year E3(i said E3) was games,this year same,why not next year?in fact now Phil have even more time to build up first party,talk with 3rd developers til next year E3

I highly doubt it, if anything both the Xbox One and PS4 should really be hitting their stride at that point.

Rare, Lionhead (new IP) Lift London, LXP, Leap, Turn 10, Good Science and Twisted Pixel should all be in attendance with new unannounced games, not even mentioning the third/second party and out sourcing Microsoft will do.

I actually expect more new announcements next year, than the previous 2 E3's.

Fans rush to declare them winners when they show CGI trailers for games years out. They'll probably just announce their 2017 games with CGI trailers to pad out their meagre output like they did this year.

At this point, 2015 looks like this:

Another Halo, QB (early 2015?), another Fable, lets also throw in an obvious another Forza. And let's say one of the CGI trio actually makes it out. Let's just say, that is quite underwhelming. Heck, I can predict their lineups years in advanced:

2015: QB, Fable, Forza 6, Halo 5, Gears Collection, Phantom Dust

2016: Gears 4, Forza Horizon 3, Scalebound, Crackdown, new Rare game

2017: Halo 6, New lionhead game, Forza 7,

2018: Gears 5, new Rare game, Horizon 4/new Forza title, Perhaps another Fable.

2019: new console that launches with conclusion ti Gears trilogy, another Forza, with Halo 7 in the pipeline 

Throw in one or two externally developed exclusives ler year, another Halo collection sometime there, anf there you have it. And herein lies the issue with MS

Granted, I might be wrong but MS has given me zero cause to think otherwise and they've yet to start knvesting in their first party so yea, I'm not too optimistic,  especially if their 360 output the last 4 years is anything to go by

No, 2015 will be the best one since they will show Halo 5 gameplay.

Despite all the clamoring for Sony and Microsoft to reveal everything RIGHT NOW, both seem content to take the smarter course and stagger reveals and releases so they come in a regular flow. Really, it kind of annoys me the way people act entitled for exclusives at E3, as these are probably the same people who will complain about games being "downgraded" because they were shown too early or because of the droughts that would occur if everything came at once.

I was pretty sure that Microsoft would go all out this E3 in an effort to win people back all at once, even if that would harm them down the line, but I was pleasantly surprised that they held off, leaving projects for the future. That's the better long-term plan, I think.

Sony obviously does not have to resort to desperate measures. More than that, I really like they way they leave material for Gamescon, TGS, and even the VGAs. I also like the way they release games in the early part of the year, when the competition is much less fierce.

2013 and 2014 both had great games shown, 2015 will probably be the same.

Their recent output is what I was forgetting, I guess I was being optimistic to wanting more for 2015 and hell even 2014, three big games a year and forza seems okay. But yeah your right, E3 2015 by your games list, can't show Halo 6, 5 isn't out yet, fable should be out so a new lionhead (and rare, downloadable) game is okay and can't show forza 7 if the next ones isn't out...
