I hope they'll announce new Morpheus specs:
- Special OLED with H-scan (from their japan display joint venture, with low cost "printed" OLED)
- higher resolution and an improved ASIC for the electronic optical correction
- Removed framerate upscaler and add BFI (logical choice if they move to oled)
- Wireless option (okay that's a wild one)
- 2016 release
 
I would expect some Morpheus, perhaps running Elder Scrolls (would make a huge difference) and lots of Oculus Rift support, occasional multi platform releases will support both. Certainly likely Super Stardust will show it. Several new IP from both companies. Should release this year, but who knows. Playstation Now officially launched at the show. Really curious about whether Move will become a big driver again or DS4 takes over. Curious what Firmware changes are still coming, apparently a big one will happen before though.
 
It's just so bad that I can't make predictions any more ;)
Good things will come to those who can wait. Maybe even to those who can't...
 
Perfect Dark and Rock Band... that sounds great, although I don't see it realised this year, especially in the case of the former.

Here are some of the predictions from last year that didn’t happen, but might have a chance in 2015:

I thought this was quite a nice “Out there” prediction from last year:

· Possible VR headset that includes a Kinect on the front
@shredenvain came ahead of time and beat me to it, but I'd expect Ryse 2 being on the E3 floor this year.

Doom 4 is also a very plausible option. I also expect a new Crysis, but not a trilogy but Crysis 4. I want another Conker game, and a kart racing game.

I WANT another F-Zero too.

A 2d battle toads , 3d conker .

I also think the hololens will be at e3. We might get a release date there of 2016 $300 usd is my guess


On sony side , I don't know much about sony's games . Perhaps another last of us announced set in the same universe but with different characters.

I expect morphus to get a 1440p screen but still be lcd . I'm now thinking a fall release date with a $300 price point with a $380 complete bundle that includes ps eye and move controllers with a game.

Nintendo will have a price drop to $250 plus a slimmer game pad to show off. Zelda will be playable on the show floor and they might show off an f zero. Imagine amiibos of the ships and characters. They could sell so many lol
 
The easy guesses for E3 are Quantum Break, Halo 5, Zelda and Uncharted 4 launch dates announced.
I think Nintendo will announce and show the long awaited return of Metroid (maybe Prime 4).
I think there is a chance Gears of War 4 gameplay will be shown. Also a chance for some sort of Gears rerelease for the X1 being announced.
I think Sony will show a new Gran T and GOW.
A new Crysis would be nice, but we will be lucky if we get a remaster of the trilogy. Crytek is still reeling from what happened as well as working on the Hunt HOTGA.
I would love a sequal to Ryse as well but I doubt it.
We should get release dates and gameplay for Home front and Scalebound. Then the usual suspects COD, Assassin's Creed, Battlefront, new Destiny DLC.
I hope to god we get to see DOOM. Fallout 4 could also happen.
 
The easy guesses for E3 are Quantum Break, Halo 5, Zelda and Uncharted 4 launch dates announced.
I'm 100% certain there will be no Uncharted 4 release date. Uncharted 3 was delayed once and The Last of Us delayed twice from their original release dates. Sony will be über vague like 'Holidays 2015' or 'Early 2016'.
 
Halo 5 is all I can think of really. Definitely the least exciting E3 in a few years (although I'm hyped for H5). The last two were super hyped in my mind as they were our first looks at next gen.

Oh and more The Division should be shown, pretty hyped for that game.

Of course Sony will show a bunch of Uncharted 4. It's their Halo.

Looking at the other posts, yes Quantum Break will be a no brainer. Forza 6 I suppose, isn't that supposed to be coming this year?

I'd love a new Crysis that was mentioned above but isn't Crytek pretty much out of commission?

Something exciting from Epic, like Samaritan or some other big budget UE4 game from them would be nice.

Gears 4 would be nice but too early I presume.

I dont really forsee any hardware price drops. An outside shot but not likely.
 
Can't wait to see the Mass Effect 4 trailer by Laa-Yosh's company! If it's too soon for that, then next year :)
Everything ME 4 related has most of my interest actually.
 
Last year E3 was a bit of a disappointment with every single company focused on high quality CGIs, but this year things will be a lot different, those are my predictions for the whole industry:
Sony:
Uncharted 4 playable
No Man's Sky
Rime
New God of War
New Gran Turismo
New Naughty Dog game to be released between 2016-2017
Some 3rd party deal like a temporal exclusivity
1 New original IP

Microsoft:
Going all out with Halo 5 and Quantum Break
Platinum's next game also playable
Possibly Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2 for the One now that they work with Platinum. Those are the only two good games of this generation not available to gamers and MS know they have to do something about it.
Some 3rd party deal related to EA or Activistion but like Sony's case, only a temporal exclusivity.
2 New original IPs

Other companies:
New Assassin's Creed with the lesson learned from Unity (it was a great game, but performance can't be so low).
The Division
New CoD
New BattleField
New Mass Effect
FFXV fully shown
Kingdom Hearts 3
EA Sports usual lineup
Batman Arkham for consoles
MGS 5 (if the game isn't released before E3)
