I have no reliable source but I've also heard something about an additional conference for insiders only, no cameras, which could be for Valve or Bethesda.

WATCH HERE: http://www.twitch.tv/twitch

What can we expect? What do we wanna see?

I'm interested the most in MS, Ubisoft and Nintendo's shows

• I'm curious how Nintendo plans to save it's ass.
  
• For Microsoft there have been a lot of rumors lately; A possible halo 3 release on PC; A job offer for a position to work on a "well-loved strategy game franchise" hinting at a new Age of Empires game.
  
• Ubisoft is simply the only one that seems to be able to just do it's work and make games without causing scandals... hoping for some news on dat Rayman 4 ಥ_ಥ

I don't follow these events... I simply wait for the news to hit me later on whenever there is something noteworthy/really interesting coming from these major players...

[CrimsonNuker]

I used to be into E3 until it turned into a Kinect/PS Move circlejerk. Console ported PC games are a turn off.

However, I will still watch

I don't really think either one of those is going to be a big subject this time. Especially move... there might be a kinect thing or two, but I don't see it being like the 2011 conference (when they announced halo 4 ).

offtopic:

Spoiler!

Anyone remember your reaction to the halo 4 announcement? I was totally caught off guard so it blew my mind

kinda like this:

[omier]

I don't care about this years E3 at all. EA makes a bunch of random games. No next gen this year so Microsoft and Sony probably won't have anything interesting. Nintendo has never done anything I have been even remotely interested in. Don't know of any big Ubisoft releases this year (and AC news will come later anyways). Just gonna see if anything will interest me when this is over.

I'd say this year will probably be much more interesting :S
Now that the consoles are actually out, it'll be interesting to see where they plan on taking them. This should be the e3 where they start announcing all the new and interesting exclusives.

Ubisoft may have some news on Beyond Good and Evil 2? A lot of people seem to want that game. It was as some point stated by Ubisoft that they intended to make it for the new generation. As of late a lot of discussion about it has been showing up. We don't really even know if it's still in development or not though. It's kinda like Ubi's own hl3

[omier]

Hmm, fair point. Never heard of that game though. Still, I shouldn't even be interested in that stuff since I am gaming less and less as time goes by. These days I spend more time watching game related things on YT than play games myself lol.

Yeah the game is old as hell, I haven't played it myself either
It's from 2003. It didn't do well commercially but garnered a lot of fandom. It's one of those gems that only made the impact after it was gone, kinda like psychonauts . Naturally Ubisoft was pretty reluctant to make another one, but in 2008 a teaser was released and then in 2012 a short gameplay vid leaked. In some interview Michel Ancel (Rayman's creator) stated the things they wanted to do in the game weren't feasible in the current gen. Then finally last month Michel Ancel teased a poster of the game during a Q&A, sparking discussions again.

[iSinnnn]

probably won't watch or keep up with it this year, but hoping for some real halo 5 info since they've talked about it very little, and with no details. not holding my breath however.. i'd settle for some halo 3 pc as well

[*BlackFox]

ROFL Three hour long... press conference?

[poehalcho]

More Microsoft rumors ヽ༼ʘ̚ل͜ʘ̚༽ﾉ

Red Dead Redemption has shown up on the Microsoft Compatibility Center for W7 and W8. Possible PC release?

@bf what's so funny about 3 hour conferences

[*BlackFox]

Because It's Just... marketing of their products. xD

So? People want to know what's coming up and what the future holds.

That's not the point!
You Just... don't need a three hour conference to announce games.

The real content is most likely surrounded by 2.5 hours of marketing hype, bullshit stories, recognition speeches and other related but unimportant information...Screaming fan-boys are willing to put up with this... For the rest of us its better to read the summary articles that comes out after these events...

IT HAS BEGUN! ヽ༼ʘ̚ل͜ʘ̚༽ﾉ

[iSinnnn]

if there's halo news i'd like to hear about it here.. otherwise i guess i can google after but that takes effort.

[poehalcho]

So I had to help my folks build a new fence so I kinda missed almost everything from MS =_=
great.

here's the MS roundup/summary: http://www.shopto.net/news/46317/Micros ... l-the-News
There appears to be mention of Halo 5 and Halo 2 anniversary (343 speech stuff going on right this moment)

here's all the new trailers and stuff I could scavenge so far in no particular or cathegory from reddit:

AAAWWWW YEEEAAAHHH

I shall now proceed to miss EA by taking a shower

[iSinnnn]

wow. if they actually execute that giant halo collection well, the franchise may just come storming back from the atrocity that was H4 and to some degree H:R. 1080p, 60fps, all the old halo games, revamped halo 2 graphics, games running on their old engines? sign me the **** up for that xbox one boiii

plus a mass effect teaser ahhh. this e3 was probably my favorite in a long time.

[CrimsonNuker]

Excited, but..EA

[.curve]

Halo Master Chief Collection blows any other announcement out of the water.

Redone Halo 2 by itself is the single greatest game they could mention at E3.

BUT WILL IT BE ON PC?

[Ganja]

Battlefield: Hardline looks like fun, I'm not sure about the price tag though.

It also seems that Destiny is free to play on the PS4 right now. It looks great.

I only watched the microsoft presentation and it was the other way around there. 2.5 hours of trailers/game info/gameplay and half an hour of non important things. (that rate anyway, can't even remember how long it was).

Also I was glad to see they didn't fck up like last year and focused purely on games this time around.

[DarkJackal]

Few things were cool. Kinda pissed me off though seeing things that were shown at last E3 with nothing new but another trailer.

And conceptual trailers. The games not even complete enough to have a trailer before its shown now. We should get a trailer by E3 2015 I suppose ¬.¬.

silky smooth 30fps master race coming through

[iSinnnn]

60fps for the halo's, and that's what matters

[Love]

Dragon Age + gta 5 pc are the games Im looking forward to.

Destiny is a question mark, good chance it'll suck.
