Well, as for my predictions:
Hm. Well, I think this E3 will be truly great for Sony, but I also think they'll be focusing on PSP just as much as the PS3 (if not even moreso). But they'll also be focusing heavily on the ps3, no doubt about it, and given the titles you've mentioned, plus a few new announcements, the ps3 will have a lot going for it.
On the PSP side of things, I think we'll see:
1. LBP PSP finally shown off, and probably playable. It's being worked on by Sony Cambridge with assistance from Media Molecule, and it should turn out quite well.
2. A few new PSP games announced. They said earlier in the year that the games they had recently announced (LBP PSP, RB PSP, AC PSP, MS PSP, etc.) were less than 50% of things they have lined up for the PSP for the year. Of course, they hadn't announced the new Jak & Daxter at the time, but I think they'll have a few more tricks up their sleeve for E3.
3. PSP-4000/PSP2 will be unveiled. I'm not sure what it'll be, and what it'll include, but it'll be there. It may be an upgrade similar to that of the DSi over the DSL, or it may be a full generational leap akin to the DS over the GBA, but it'll be the biggest hardware change we've yet seen for the PSP.
4. Now this one I'm not so sure about, but I have a feeling it'll happen. Gran Turismo 4 Mobile will return, re-dubbed GT5 Mobile. It'll either be announced as a standard PSP title, or, if they are truly releasing a PSP2, a PSP2 launch title.
Now onto ps3:
1. Trico! Yes, the game we've all been waiting for! It'll finally be unveiled! ...I think. It's been a long time coming, and they have to show it at some point, and this seems like the perfect place. My only doubts stem from the fact that SCEI tends to focus more on TGS than E3, so they may wait to unveil it there. However, E3 is slowly returning to its former glory, and it really is the place to be making any big announcements these days. Plus, I feel that TGS might just be too far away, unless they don't plan to release the game until late 2010 or possibly 2011. I highly doubt that's the case (or rather, I fear it to be the case =( ).
2. We'll see some other new ps3 games, though I'm not sure what. I think it's too soon to show off Starhawk, and David Jaffe confirmed on neogaf that his people won't be showing anything at E3, so that rules out Twisted Metal, but there are a few developers that have been awfully quiet as of late. Sony Liverpool, for example, has released nothing but Wipeout HD for PSN over the past 2.5 years. It's been long rumored that they've been working on a third person action title for a while, and we might see that, or something else from the team. And there are various other teams we may get some info out of. And who knows, we may actually get a teaser for Starhawk.
3. Gran Turismo 5 will finally return to the limelight, and we'll get a release time frame. God of War III will also be there, playable, and we'll also get a release time frame. Same goes for a few of their 2009 titles, like MAG and Heavy Rain.
4. White Knight Chronicles announced for the West, with a rough release date. Hopefully Demon's Souls will be announced for the West too, but I'm finding that more and more unlikely. Though I already imported it, so it doesn't effect me much. We may also see Sony get up on stage with SE and announce that the FFXIII demo will be on the Western release of FFVII: ACC, and thus the demo will be "exclusively on the ps3" haha. Then I'll feel like an ass for having spent way too much on importing the Japanese version, assuming we wouldn't get the demo for awhile. =x
5. A new ps3 SKU or two. Silver ps3 controllers are now up for pre-order at GameStop, set to release on June 24th, and it's quite apparent that the Silver ps3 will finally be making its way out of Japan, and we should see an announcement at E3
PSP:
1. LBP was shown via brief glimpses of footage during the conference, and was playable on the show floor.
2. A few new PSP titles were announced, including MGS: Peace Walker, the return of GT Mobile, and others.
3. The PSP Go! was unveiled.
4. GT Mobile did make a return, and while the PSP Go! isn't a PSP2, GT Mobile is a launch title for the Go!
PS3:
1. Trico! I was correct! And this was the game's official coming out, so to speak. It wasn't a leak of 1.5 year old footage. :P
2. New ps3 games were certainly revealed, FFXIV being the most notable one. Also MGS: Rising, in a way. :P And then there was Mod Nation Racers or whatever it's called.
3. God of War was playable and we got a release month. We also got release windows for Heavy Rain (Q1 2010) and MAG (Fall 2009). However, GT5 did not return to the limelight (outside of the new trailer in the conference), and the focus of attention was instead placed on GT Mobile.
4. WKC was announced for the west via E3, but it had no presence whatsoever at Sony's conference. They have released an official "E3" trailer for the game as well. It was also announced for Q1 2010, not the "rough release date" I had in mind lol. Demon's Souls was also announced for the West, but prior to E3, and courtesy of Atlus rather than Sony. Tthe FFXIII demo seems MIA for NA for the time being.
5. No new PS3 skus were shown. Not even a new color. It turns otu that silver ps3 controller is a GameStop exclusive having something to do with Batman: Akham Asylum.
Overall, I'd say I did rather well. Outside of the FFXIII demo (which I said was a maybe lol), the Demon's Souls announcement, and new ps3 SKUs, I was for the most part spot on with my predictions.
