I haven't been keeping tabs on the lineup this year, but here's hoping that we get some nice surprises surrounding the FF7 Remake! What are you guys hoping to see? Any speculations?

I heard briefly about Elder Scrolls VI, but I don't think that's making an appearance in E3 this year, according to Todd Howard anyway. I think that's the one I'm most excited about besides the FF7 Remake.

I am hoping to see a gameplay of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake to see how the battle system will work. I would also love to see Tifa in action since her name appeared in the trailer as well some information regarding its release date.

With the tease of Tifa's name in the Battle menu before I'm certain she will appear this time! S-E have a full blown show this year... well it must mean they've got more to show than last years laughable presentation.

I'm secretly hoping for a NieR surprise... it's upcoming to the original games 10 anniversary next year...

I'd flip tables if they announced a World of Final Fantasy II, the games great and deserves more peoples time.

Still gutted about there being no Sony show this year, hoping the Xbox show will display multi-platform games - Mega Browny points if they announce Shenmue III as a multi-platform game! (Please be excited!)

I'm actually thinking of going to the FFVII A Symphonic Reunion concert this Sunday. Just heard Kitase is hosting it. I have a feeling there's going to be some form of news there. Last I checked yesterday there's still quite a bit of tickets left.

Oh yeah @Vivi-Gamer what's the news lately with Shenmue III?

 

[JigoKuu]

I think I will watch all the shows as I usually do. This year I don't have expectations (I shouldn't have had them last year either...) but I would love to hear more about FFVII Remake.

What I am most excited about is Square Enix, Microsoft and Ubisoft though. I have a feeling those shows will rock. *3*

Something is brewing... us Shenmue fans are used to scraps but it could potentially turn up at a PC showcase at e3 in under 5 hours!

The wild news is that a Forum member found some new footage on a PS4 Kiosk at Walmart! We all thought it was BS but the person went back and recorded it - Out of context it's barely 15 seconds of new footage but it has been enough to verify the stead improvement of the title despite the delay:

I'm pretty certain Gamespot will be showcasing it on Wednesday too

Little sad to see no Capcom presence this e3, I was expecting something from them in Microsoft's conference...

Watching how happy various streamers and influencers were when Keanu showed up in the Cyberpunk press conference, their happiness gives me life ❤

It's pretty dire so far. You can tell studios are hesitant to prematurely reveal their next-gen plans and are half keeping their cards close to their chest, so the reveals so far have been a mix of intriguing (Ghostwire Tokyo & Deathloop by Bethesda ring to mind) but encumbered by only being conceptual CGI with no actual gameplay footage. There are also too many notable absences, chiefly from Sony, Capcom as mentioned and Warner Bros have just inexplicably dropped off the face of the earth.

My favourites so far though:

• Keanu Reeves is a prominent character in Cyberpunk 2077
• Forza is getting a Lego update and there is a Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga
• 12 Minutes - give me all the psychological thrillers
• Blair Witch, if only because I want people to stream it
• Ghostwire Tokyo
• Deathloop
• DOOM Eternal

I expect the reveal of the Watch Dogs game set in a dystopian near-future London will also make this list.

Also, I'm glad I was not party to the Bethesda conference, because it sounds like the audience was predominantly coked up to hell and back.

So far E3 2019 has been great. There are a ton of great games been reveal at this year E3 Press Conferences and I am excited to see more. One of the game that I was so hyped to see was Final Fantasy VII Remake. I just saw the Square Enix Press Conference and I have to say, I was extremely surprised on what they have shown. Square Enix did a extremely great job on their presentation by revealing us a high quality gameplay demonstration and inform us with valuable information. I can't wait to get my hands on this remake and play it on my PlayStation 4.

Cyberpunk 2077 seems to be another game that has caught the attention of many players across the world. With the latest trailer revealing Keanu Reeves as a playable character, it has surprised many fans at its press conference. I just hope they keep revealing more great games and surprise us even more.
