In terms of Sony: I'm hoping to see what they have in store for the PS4, news about Black Ops III, and, hopefully, to see if they're going to do something big with the Vita (which I sincerely doubt).

In terms of Square Enix: DAMN! That conference is LITERALLY in a month! Dx But yeah, I'm expecting to see Final Fantasy XIV, Kingdom Hearts III, Unchained Chi, Mana, and VERY HOPEFULLY something TWEWY related.

G H E T T M A J E R H I P E

tbh I'm hoping for a chi release date, possible announcement for windows phone (or Microsoft announces android apps for windows 10), but number one is for 3D HD to get announced. That is the game I want more than any other announcement, be it III or grand theft scrolls arkham hearts row: The wild hunt.

I think Unchained Chi will be released before this month ends, to be honest. They can use the e3 conference to promote it. But yeah, I had forgotten about KH3D and its possible HD re-release. Its definitely something that needs to happen, seeing as how its one of the few titles unavailable at a Sony console, and another secret ending can be used to tie whatever Unchained Chi establishes.

So I wondering, do you guys still get to go to e3? I remember seeing sign and shamdeo when bbs was playable for the first time in demo form but I don't remember hearing if anyone went there again.

unless this is some more top secret kingdum harts info y'all got cooking.

Ooohh! I like me some KH Insider Staff surprises! :p

Oh yeah I forgot to put that in the article. Yeah we're attending.

Awesome and this time, not getting the the way of school.

So, same mods going again?

*Prays* Please let me get that day off, Please let me get that day off, Please let me get that day off */Prays*

The lovely Sign and Master Spockanort will be representing us again. :3

Kingdom hearts appearance comfirmed.

[strike]lol jk not really[/strike]

It just sucks so much!! Nintendo and Square Enix are at the exact same time!!! Square Enix is my favorite company, but so was Nintendo for the longest time. I'm really only interested in XV, KH3, TWEWY2, and a Sleeping Dogs Sequel (Not Triad Wars). XV has already been confirmed to have little or no screen time, KH3 may appear for a short while, but I doubt we'll get anything too extensive (over 3 minutes) Sleeping Dogs 2...just isn't happening, and the odds of TWEWY2 being announced are possible but a little slim.....

I think I have to go with Nintendo...I know they'll definitely have more that interests me, but I'll be DARNED if someone or some website spoils any new KH3 news for me or a surprise announcement like TWEWY2 or Sleeping Dogs 2 like they did in 2013. I really thought I'd get to see it live with everyone at the same time, but Nintendo didn't back down and still chose their old time slot....(deep...depressing...sighs.....)

I just hope Square Enix is done by the time Nintendo is done, so I can switch directly over and start from the beginning. I also hope you can rewind the stream like in the past..If you can't, I'm done for...So many months of anticipation ruined again..You WILL be spoiled trying to get to the conferences or streams, even if you try to cover the screen. That stuff is EVERYWHERE E3 week.

I'm going to record this on cable (unless it conflicts with my parents recordings). If not I'll catch a summary, you guys are good at that shit lmao

If you can spare the internet, why not have both open at the same time, with the least interesting one muted and swap between the two when it's something you're interested in. You just gotta hope that there's nothing you want to see on at the same time.

I'm going to try to run an E3 thread for the forums for the third year with links to the streams/conferences and I can try to format the OP so you can get to the links without seeing any game announcements.

Square pushed their conference back an hour.

Oh, there will be streams?? Perfect!! and I'll finish high school once and for all by that time, it will be just me, free time, and the avalanche of info to sort out as a consequence of these events

It was the first thing I thought of back when Square Enix announced their stream. A lot of people noticed that that was Nintendo's recurring time slot. I personally agreed with everyone saying, it'd be foolish to have your stream at the same time as someone else because it divides attention. So I thought Nintendo would go a little earlier, or a little later. In the event though I thought, why not just have both open? Well, I really want to be immersed when I watch E3 so the surprises really surprise me, and avoid a scenario where I have to chose which game I want to focus on in the event they are both showing games I'm interested in. The atmosphere helps build it up too. Like sometimes you'll just hear very recognizable sound effect, a voice, or a theme, and then something crazy you weren't expecting happens. For KH3 it was just a logo, and everyone k new what was happening. You just can't truly get that effect if you mute one and try to watch them at the same time :/

I will probably copy the link for the Square Enix stream, wait for about 5 minutes, then paste and immediately full screen (To avoid side videos and the insufferable chat box littered with spoilers) and start form the beginning. This way I don't have to go to youtube, google, or a gaming site to find it, and will avoid as many spoilers as I can.

Edit:

Thank You for This :)

AND WAS THE TIME REALLY PUSHED BACK CHASER!?? I'm going to be honest with you kind sir...I don't think my heart can take it if that's not true.

I guess SE didn't want to completely conflict with Nintendo's schedule. [strike]Maybe because of TWEWY 2.[/strike]

Really excited for E3.

Okay, seems like they bumped it a hour later, I just got word since I'm on Square's twitter(have been since FFXI news came out on twitter and never dropped it):

https://twitter.com/SquareEnix/status/599273119124099073/photo/1

I'm annoyed by that only because Square Enix had that time slot first, and Nintendo's is a digital presentation. They should have moved their conference back.

*sips tea while petting phone like it is a living creature*

Uncharted 4 and KH3. That's all I care about.

While I believe (I could be wrong) Nintendo has had that same slot for the past x amount of years, Square did say it first so it's kinda lame. Maybe they have a shared project they want split up amongst both? Or Square just doesn't want to share limelight.

Nothing bad could come of this since each conference will now receive everyone's full attention.

i hooping for a sly cooper anoucment or a new trailer form the movie that coming out next year and also hoping for more kingdom hearts news besides unchained key maybe a kingdom hearts 3 litter teaser to get us extied for the d23

It was their time in 2012 and 2014, while it was at 7AM in 2013. But the slot was available, Square took it, then Square had to back out to avoid clashing with Nintendo. It's very unfortunate especially since Square's is live and Nintendo's is pre-recorded.

What do I wanna see? I'm a lot of our answers are the same, KINGDOM HEARTS III NEWS! You know, something besides; "The game is progressing, we'll be giving you news for it soon." What we want is something we can see, like screenshots, or a trailer! I don't know about you guys... But I'm super excited for June 15th!

I understand that Nintendo had that time slot for the past few years, but it's not like you can just call dibs on these things. You snooze, you lose. That spot was open for anyone to claim, and SE took it. They shouldn't have to care about whether Nintendo will stream another video online, especially when they're actually holding their conference live at the convention center. Doesn't seem right imo.

On the actual topic though, anything KH would be fine with me.

I'm expecting them to talk more about Unchained Key's, but I'm also hoping for a DDD HD announcement. With maybe a small bit of KH3 but the bulk of KH3 news will come later in the year.

Oh, yay! E3 is just around the corner. I can't wait!Yesterday I just read about the new KH announcement... KH unchained X. I was not expecting something such as that to be announced this month, especially with E3 only a month away. This sounds great so far, from what I've read. And I'm loving the sound of it being free to play anytime. Assuming of course that it makes it over seas at a near enough date. What surprised me most though was that this was exactly the kind of game unveiling I expected SE would show off at E3. But no. Now I can only wonder with even higher anticipation what special KH news awaits us at the upcoming convention. I have no idea now, really. But I'd like to say KH III has an even better chance of making an appearance next month. Oh, I hope!From new screenshots, gameplay aspects, character renders, a TRAILER... Anything! I'll hit the ceiling, pretty much, with just about anything that pops up during next month if it features KH III; the climax of the Xehanort saga. It has been a while, and what has leaked out about it I can remember getting overly excited and crazy about it. But seriously. If they bring to us a new cinematic viewing trailer for KH III... Well, that'd sure make my day, considering I can get myself away from the screen displaying the new video long enough to first even notice I'm living a day, and make sure it's not just a fantastic dream. Haha.

There's so much KH stuff I'm hoping to see but that does mean more opportunities for me to be disappointed.

Cannot wait for Kingdom Karts to not be announced for the 6th year in a row.

Is that a running gag or are people actually waiting for that game to be announced?

Won't be much longer bro. There's already screenshots~

Sora's face is horrible and Zebra-Xemnas on Wario's flame-designed car look worthy of many lols!! xDD

By the way: Yellow Opera Heartless can act like the thunder! xD

I wonder how much money Square Enix had to pay to reschedule it an hour later.

And I wonder how much Nintendo didn't pay to get the spot.

Does Nintendo even have to pay anything for E3? I mean, they're not even physically there showcasing anything. It's all digital with them, which is cool and all, but still.

Apparently they have something called the treehouse live demonstration thing.

I imagine there are still some kind of fees they have to pay since that is a block of time another company cannot use. Idk how it works but I imagine they pay for the time slot. If they had a physical event on-site, they'd also have to pay any booking fees for the space as well.

Nintendo does have a very large booth they pay for. It is quite the sight to behold with lots of decorations, multiple rooms to relax in or play games, and areas within the booth for their games so whatever money they save from having a physical presentation is probably spent on their booth haha

One hour isn't too bad. Hopefully we'll get a stream to watch the Square Enix panel. :D

The SE presentation will indeed be streamed.

Would you prefer Twitch or Youtube?

im going with youtube for the stream

I still can't believe that this is already a month away...

1 month left get hype, we all gonna be a happy kingdom hearts family for three days in June.

Well, maybe. You never know, KH could be a complete no-show at E3 since they do have D23 later in the year. It's unlikely of course, but could still happen. Last year we got hardly anything at all.

We're always a happy Kingdom Hearts family. A happy, dysfunctional family.

Pretty sure we'll see something regarding KH3 at E3. I'd be fine with just seeing the new character designs [strike]and maybe a world or two[/strike]

I am just wondering what Square Enix could show that will last an hour:

Dues Ex
Tomb Raider
Hitman (maybe, it seems like a popular guess)
Final Fantasy XV
Final Fantasy XII Remaster (I feel comfortable with this guess)
Just Cause 3
Star Ocean

Is that enough to keep a 1 hour press conference?

You'd be surprised how quickly the hour fills up, especially with all the awkward talking and live demos and stuff that people do. Most conferences only focus on a handful of games.

Fixed it for you.

Honestly, SE has a lot of stuff they can show off, and I'd be willing to guess we'll see a few surprises and maybe even some new/Remade handheld games (FFV and VI done like III and IV please SE).

I concur. Let's not over-hype ourselves and be a lil' bit conservative to ensure little, to no disappointments.


looooooooooooool xD Like Shameless sort of dysfunctional? xD


Well, if they're working on a Frozen world, that would be enough of a big announcement to have people on their chairs until the D23.


^^^ I've been meaning to give these series a try, but I've been very busy at life and forget. xP


^^^ This is a definite. FFXV might be released later this year, or early next, so a presentation is very possible.


Assuming the management gave it the green light and they outsourced it, it's possible they have something to show us.


Damn, I'm a bit hyped for this one, seeing as how I liked Star Oceans I & II. xP


Oh, golly. Yet ANOTHER series I've been meaning to give a try, with no time and money in hand, haha. xD


My thoughts exactly. They even have the FFX & X-2 engines on the PS4 tech.


^^^ THIS is another game that has me Eager McBeaver. :<<


Obviously. o3o


They have a lot of games to cover under this category, so this is definitely going to be in there.


Yes, plox. :v I've been wanting those two titles remade for a couple of years now (can't forget the rumors about FFs V & VI not being remade on the NDS because it wasn't strong enough and that they were open to evaluate the 3DS [I also read somewhere that Before Crisis was also a possibility on the 3DS])

By the way: whatever happened to the PS4 enhanced port of Final Fantasy VII?

I honestly have no hype for any of these conferences,nor am i expecting any game i want to appear.

I thinks that's a good thing...lol

I shall not be disappointed this time!

To be honest, I was indifferent to the e3 presentations, but now I have some small dose of hype. Only a month away from knowing if we'll get games like TWEWY2, FF12HD, KH3DHD... :<<<<<<<<

I just want 3D HD. Probably the only ps4 game in the next year I'll buy day one so it would be a major blow if such a game wasn't announced (y'all already know tho).

There's no way the 3DS couldn't handle it, so they really should make all my dreams come true and do that (and maybe for II as well since it's just... kind of not remade, excluding the PSP port).

Before Crisis should be localized and remade for 3DS so I can finally play it.

By the way: whatever happened to the PS4 enhanced port of Final Fantasy VII?

There's only like 3 things that indicate they've done some tests on it, not that it's 100% coming. Get your hopes down.

Man, buncha butthurt Square fanboys mad at Nintendo over the difference of an hour. It was Square's fault anyway to have chosen a timeline slot repeatedly used by another company in the past.

I can literally imagine Syldra's 3D model. so CUTE! .3.


I'm indifferent towards console and company wars created by fans, really. It was entertaining to read them at first, but there's a moment where everything becomes stale.

I dunno, I think it's pretty reasonable considering that if Nintendo has permanent claim over that time slot, the ESA wouldn't have offered it up to begin with.

Uh, Nintendo gave no indication they were attending so square took a slot that was appropriate for them, but they didn't want conflict (or are working on a secret project, #TWEWY2), so they backed down from THEIR timeslot. I am a Nintendo and square fanboy so idgaf really but I can see why others would be mad, but that's business. There was no gaming war, just a company with limited resources and staff whose games live off of cult followings and nostalgia while the other... Is the same with more money.

First off, I'M SO HAPPY THEY RESCHEDULED. I was so torn between watching the Nintendo and Square conferences but now I can just watch both when they air. :redface:

As for my hopes for this E3?
In regards for Square, just like everyone else, anything Kingdom Hearts related. I'd love to at least hear a date for Chi.
I'd love to hear a release date from Sony for No Man's Sky.
From Nintendo I'm hoping Animal Crossing and a new Fire Emblem.

I have a couple other small hopes but those are the bigger ones on my list.

Meh. I'll just watch their respective conferences once the recordings are released on YouTube.


But, but...! I want Unchained Chi to be released BEFORE THIS MONTH ENDS!! DDDDDDDD:



Oh yeah, they need to develop a Wii U Animal Crossing game.
There's already JollyCrow
