E3 2018 Hype and Train-Wreck Thread (Place your bets!)

Nioh 2.

BruhHhhHH just gimme devil may cry 5 with my boy REAL dante

I don’t play many new releases these days but was looking forward to Borderlands 3. Now I hear it may be next year or an entirely new spin.

Havent found the time to be hyped over anything, i guess the only thing id like to see is Cyberpunk.

Battlefield hyped died, CoD hype never existed, so whats left? A Divinity OS 2 DLC announcement would be tits.

1) Don't screw up Starfield.
2) Show us how Cyberpunk works in what we assume (incorrectly?) is a Witcherian framework.

Standard question: Now that Nintendo used all their powder on Swtich's first year, do they have anything through Christmas 2019 other than Pokemanz / Metroid / a Smash half-sequel/half-port / F-Zero / Odyssey 2 (and that's really just an expansion pack, again).

Secret Hope: Kingdom Hearts gets a Steam release.

Long term: Reading the tea leaves on how developers think this gen will end, e.g. does the Starfield crew still think they can get Elder Scrolls 6 out on this gen three years from now?
Hell, what do even Holiday 2019/2020 look like? Is it a barren wasteland as everyone moves onto next gen, or is it a barnburner, as everyone puts out sequels to everything from the last two years (Horizon 2 / God of War 2 / Doom 2 / Wolfenstein 3 / Titanfall 3 / Destiny 3 / Watchdogs 3) before they move onto new tech / memory assumptions? After Starfield and Cyberpunk, should we expect anything that doesn't (effectively) have a number in the title until 2021?

Every publisher would kill to have games with the caliber of Smash, 2 Pokemon games, and Metroid 4 coming out in the next year.

F-Zero is kind of a wild card. It's Platinum so it could be great, but on the other hand it's a racing? game.

On the vain hope front, I'm hoping to see something of that game Wild, the other game Michel Ancel is working on alongside Beyond Good and Evil 2. It looked pretty cool last time they showed it, but the last time was a couple years ago. While I'd love to see it at E3, my gut says that, if we see it at all this year, it'll be at a European event.

Oh yeah, DMCV is maybe and hopefully a thing, more soul caliber stuff

Horizon: Zero Dawn sequel hopefully

As this is the E3 thread for the year, we should probably have the schedule for the press events somewhere in here. I always find it easier to have it somewhere like here, than to hunt around for it on gaming news sites come E3 time.

All times are Pacific:

Sat, June 9
11 am: EA

Sun, June 10
1 pm: Microsoft
6:30 pm: Bethesda
8 pm: Devolver Digital

Mon, June 11

3 pm: PC Gaming
6 pm: Sony

Tues, June 12

Feel free to copy/paste into the OP, if so inclined.

Doubt it but I would be surprised

This Bungie news is interesting, wonder what new IPs they plan to introduce, doubt we will see anything at E3 tho.

bungie news sorta sucks because NetEase (their new partner) is a huge chinese gaming company so yipee for spyware and hackable games and no one giving any fucks about any gameplay but then again bungie has pretty much sucked donkey dick for a long time so who cares
