Well there is only about 2 weeks til the biggest event of the year

Calling E3 the biggest event of the year might be a slight overstatement...

Anyway, I'm personally looking forward to the Project Café reveal, along with the Ace Attorney/Professor Layton crossover.

 

[Matt07]

I'm looking forward to seeing Project Café, and crossing my fingers for a sign of a Chrono Trigger/Cross sequel lol.

 

[Divinokage]

Smash game number 4, I'm hoping! =P

 

[MysteryRevengerson]

I expect Nintendo to do even BETTER than last year's E3, which is where they tore up eeeeeeeveryone. They had a big game for practically every series last year, and with Project cafe, the PERFECT game to show it off with would be Smash. If Smash is a launch title, you can bet I will save every last dollar I earn and save it for this console.

Other games I expect to see are some great 3DS titles, that kirby game on the Wii, and Pikmin 3. Also a new Ice Climbers would be nice.

 

[F8AL]

I'm looking forward to hearing/learning more about Project Cafe, what 3DS games are being planned and what Activision/Infinity Ward and co. are doing for MW3.

Oh, and Bioshock: Infinite as well.

 

[LivewiresXe]

Mass Effect 3 info, maan. Though I REALLY am starting to wish ME1 would come out for PS3 at some point.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

Here's whats going to happen:

- Nintendo is going to own yet again with another console, some games to show off, etc.
- A lot of 3DS crap to show off. (Iknow the 3ds sucks right now, but it'll get better. It just needs games)
-Maybe a few Wii things... Pikmin 3.... omg it should be a launch title for Cafe...


- Sony will show some things (No idea what, though)
- Overall meh compared to the other two (But it's not really their fault, the ps3 can last a few more years)
-NGP...yay?

_Microsoft will show info on a new console
-Hype
-Idkwhatelse I don't care for Microsoft.

All in all, I see Nintendo winning again >.>

 

[Fuelbi]

I guess Cafe and MW3 I guess :/ w/e

 

[TLMSheikant]

Im hyped for me3, the new AC, skyward sword, Xenoblade and TReboot. And hoping for info on whether fire emblem 3 remake is coming to NA or not. Oh and hoping for smash 4 on the cafe

 

[GunmasterLombardi]

Sly 4, Uncharted 3, NGP, Twisted Metal, Battlefield 3, Ratchet and Clank All 4 One, PSP HD Remakes, Sorcery, etc. for Sony.

I pray to God for a Crash Bandicoot revival.

 

[finalark]

I've read that Nintendo's ENTIRE line up will be western developed. That, Cafe and hopefully some PSO2 stuff will make E3 awesome for me.

 

[Youko]

_Microsoft will show info on a new console

I agreed with a good amount of what you said, but there is pretty much no chance of this happening. But then again, you said you "don't care about Microsoft," so the comment isn't that surprising.

Microsoft poured almost a half a BILLION dollars into Kinect and there are hardly any games for it. This is the year where they try to back up those "Guinness record-breaking sales" with some actual content. This is absolutely the wrong time for information on a new console, when just one year ago, they told people to put $150 down for their fancy new camera.


Anyway, this is the first E3 where I'll be personally invested in each conference, as I own each system. Clearly, Project Cafe has the most intrigue going for it, plus all the games that Nintendo will trying to be pushing for 3DS. Also, I wonder what we'll be calling the NGP after the show is over. And I wonder how Microsoft is going to make people care about Kinect...because some of the early leaks don't look too good on that front.

 

[Fuelbi]

I just realized

I need to see more Gears 3 this E3

Seriously

 

[Mic_128]

Really sad that Valve's not showing anything this year. Still hoping they'll have Gabe pop up randomly in Sony's conference and talk about something (like the Steam/Portal 2 PC->PS3 compatability)

backwards compatibility? I mean the kinect works on a normal PC so I don't see how it wouldn't work on the Xbox3.

really looking forward to well, anything from valve.
The whole project cafe thing better be good because the wii was really a downer.

 

[Pluvia]

Mass Effect 3 and Gears 3.

I had 100% honestly never heard of the Café until I read the posts in this thread and Googled it.

 

[Abel1994]

Project Cafe with a new sMASH

 

[Ignatius]

Same, I was really hoping for some more DotA 2 info.

 

[Fuelbi]

What makes you guys so sure they'll make another smash?

Even sakurai said he wasnt planning on more smash

Although I guess someone else can make it, which I guess will be good if I doesn't turn out as bad a barwl

 

[Luigitoilet]

Apparently Sony's conference is slated to be five hours long. I dunno if I can take that many dancing game demonstrations

 

[Fuelbi]

I dunno if I can take that many giant enemy crabs

 

[Dastrn]

nintendo will steal the show

 

[Fuelbi]

I'm looking forward for that Butler fellow to give another speech

The one he gave at last years E3 was the only good part of Sonys conference

 

[Deleted member]

because thats literally what happened with brawl

 

[finalark]

They better devote a good chunk of that to Twisted Metal and Last Guardian.

 

[Grizzmeister]

I’m looking forward to the Project Café reveal as well as:

1) Smash game with HD graphics and better on-line mode
2) Star Fox game that’s similar to the N64 version in single player and multiplayer finally gets on-line
3) New F-Zero game that takes full advantage of the Café’s power
4) There are rumors of sequels to 1080 Snowboarding and Wave Race on one disc. I hope Nintendo tells us something about this as I think it’s a brilliant way to show off how powerful Project Café really is.

 

[GreenKirby]

Kirby Wii
And the confirmination of localizing Last Story and Pandora's Box

Cafe is already obvious.

 

[The Real Gamer]

I'm looking forward to seeing Project Café, and crossing my fingers for a sign of a Chrono Trigger/Cross sequel lol.

Chrono Trigger sequel on the 3DS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!

But I'm really looking forward to the Project Cafe details.

 

[mystery_dungeon]

All I ask is a good balance of win from Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft. It's only fair after all.

Chrono Trigger sequel on the 3DS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!

But I'm really looking forward to the Project Cafe details.

So you want port of Chrono Cross?

 

[LivewiresXe]

I'd take that too, lol. Anything to get some interest back in the series.

 

[The Real Gamer]

So you want port of Chrono Cross?

Chrono Cross ain't got nothin on the original, son.

Hell even a Chrono Trigger remake with 3D graphics and a few extras here and there would make me happy.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

They remade CT on DS, so I doubt it.

Chrono Cross, FFVI, FFV, etc on 3ds.. please.

Also is kingdom hearts 3D a remake of kh1? KH1 is the only one I like, lol.

 

[The Real Gamer]

IK it's never gonna happen but a guy can dream can't he?

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

Nice pun [the use of the word Dream, lol]

 

[Fuelbi]

I think my friend told me that it's a complete different game.

It's like the next big step after KH2 and it isn't one of those ****ty side games

 

[cutter]

It's still a fantasy for now, but I just want Capcom to announce Darkstalkers 4 already. They recently had a poll on Capcom Europe that asked what old series should be rebooted, and Darkstalkers was noticeably missing from the poll. Could that mean DS4 is secretly in the works?

Oh, and I guess it would be nice to hear some more about SF x Tekken.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

Kingdom Hearts (amazing) > KH2 (cool) > Crapppppp

they should've made kh3 and ended the series. Milking sucks.

 

[Spire]

Literally above everything else, even Zelda, I want a new F-Zero. Be it on the 3DS (awesome) or Project Café (awesome), or both (super awesome), I will be completely happy if they announce a new one.

Other things I'm looking forward to:
• more on Skyward Sword
• more on Skyrim
• Soul Calibur V
• Mass Effect 3
• anything new Final Fantasy

You pretty much said everything that was on my mind, including F-Zero. And I seriously hope they let Sega develop it again, GX was awesome.

Also, Souledge looks awesome this time. It looks more like a demonic sword and less like a slab of meat.
