E3 2016 IS A COMING!






So today is June and were finally into summer! It's a very big month for gaming. Why is that you ask? Every year is E3 month were major gaming companies such as Sony, Microsoft and many other major developers announce brand new games. Here are the times for each conference.

Electronic Arts:
SUNDAY 12TH JUNE: 1PM PST/9PM BST
First in foremost. EA won't be having a traditional E3 booth at the show floor. It will instead have it's own venue called EA Play at Club Nokia. But let's talk about the games. So we recently heard that EA has just revealed their next Battlefield game called simply Battlefield 1 as well as a new Titanfall sequel, it is most likely that we are going to hear more news on those games. As well as more additional news on EA Sports' titles and Mass Effect Andromeda. But about that new IP that Criterion Games is working on? We will have to see once EA hosts this conference. Btw, except to see FIFA 17 and other EA Sports titles being shown too.

Bethesda Softworks:
SUNDAY 12TH JUNE: 7PM PST/ MONDAY 13TH JUNE 3AM BST
In my opinion Fallout 4 and the recently released Doom did quite well for Bethesda. Even though they haven't announced anything as of yet. We may happen to see more interesting IP's that their studios are working on. New Elder Scrolls anyone? Let's hope.

Microsoft:
MONDAY 13TH JUNE 9:30AM PST/ 5:30PM BST
To be honest I don't know if there any more information regarding Microsoft's new IP's this time except they do have the Hololens in development including the abysmal Young Conker game which caused quite a stir for Conker fans by revamping his overall character design. If Microsoft wants to win this E3. They need to refrain from using gimmicky accessories. Remember when Rare had to lay off their staff because Kinect Sports Rivals sold terribly? Rare did regretting into making Kinect Sports and reverted back to making normal games such as making an awesome compilation called Rare Replay and a new IP called Sea of Thieves. We may happen to see more infomation on Gears of War 4 and a new Forza game. So how will Microsoft pull this one out. 

Ubisoft:
MONDAY 13TH JUNE 1PM PST/ 9PM BST
Last Year Ubisoft announced so many IP's. Most are recently released such as Assassin's Creed Chronicles and Far Cry Primal and some are still in the works which are For Honor, South Park: The Fractured But Whole (Please do not censor this game in EU Ubisoft I beg you!) and the recently just announced Watch Dogs 2 in which the first sequel had average reviews. For Ubi in my opinion they did alright. Sometimes they made good games and some were meh and sometimes they tend to p*ss gamers off with broken gameplay, glitches and censorship. Ubisoft really needs to be careful when terms to develop games as one screw up can p*ss their fans. And were going to see more of Just Dance are we? ¬_¬

Sony:
MONDAY 13TH JUNE 6PM PST/2AM BST
Ahh Sony, why do you always pick a very late time for the UK? Anyway back the news. First off, DO NOT except any PSVita news, second, except ALOT of news regarding PlayStation VR and it's titles. Even though we had great first-party lined up such as David Cage's Detroit, Gran Turismo Sport, Gravity Rush 2, Horizon Zero Dawn, The Last Guardian and Media Molecule's Dreams in the works. The PS4 is starting to get some great quality first party games which is a great. Ratchet & Clank sold well in the UK and so did Uncharted 4 and back then in 2013 and 2014 there are so many average and rushed first party titles, DRIVECLUB had to be delayed for year just to get the game polished. However, there are rumours that Santa Monica is working on a new God of War game. What I'm hoping is release dates for Dreams, Horizon and of course The Last Guardian to be released in 2016. That's all that matters to me. Even though Sony had a good relationship Activision, more news on Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is likely. What I'm really hoping is that Sony announces a new Crash Bandicoot already, reboot, remake or not. If only Shawn Layden would stop teasing us. 

Nintendo:
TUESDAY 14TH JUNE 9AM PST/5PM BST
Still no press conference or more NX news. It's just Zelda, Zelda and more Zelda.

And I guess that's it for my theories. What do you guys think?
