So with E3 being less than a week away and it being pretty quiet around here I thought now was a great time to make an E3 thread. Feel free to post predictions, hopes and dreams (soon to be crushed), reveals and Todd Howard memes.

So here are a few things we might see this year and just a quick reminder of games that still exist:
New consoles? or more appropriately ''console of choice.5'' It seems more likely that Sony will be the one to reveal their ''.5'' console, I don't really know much about these new consoles though. I'm sure if they are revealed the reception will be interesting either way.
Where the games at? So I expect more Final Fantasy, I've lost count of all these FF related projects recently but the obvious ones being FFXV and FFVll remake. Hopefully we get to see more of FFVll in particular, I don't really have any interest in the game but I'm really interested to see what they do with it.
Have you prayed to our lord and saviour Mr Hideo Kojima? He's going to be closing out Sony's press conference this year. Screenshot this shit. Ok, that's unlikely but I definitely think Sony will bring him on stage just to remind us that he's still alive and working on a game (exclusive?) for their platform.
Games that I'm personally excited for? Halo Wars 2, really enjoyed the first but never expected a sequel.
Ghost Recon Wildlands, haven't heard anything about it since last E3, hopefully we'll see more this year.
Last Guardian? Shenmue 3? who am I kidding.
You guys care about VR? No? Too bad because Phil Spencer and whoever Sony wheels out are going to be hammering home just how
Innovative and
Revolutionary it is and how VR technology will find a
New Home on their (new?) platforms for an hour straight.
I also predict Nintendo will once again leave us all disappointed even though they have a new console to reveal (which they won't).
I kept it short, there are more games I'd like to see/discuss but I'd be here all day. Would really appreciate any and all contributions to the thread, let me see you get your hopes up so I can laugh at you when they reveal a mobile game of your favourite franchise/series. Also if anybody wants to hang out and watch the conferences together Sunday or Monday that would be neat.
