Five video game predictions for 2015

2. MS will have a megaton exclusive announcement regarding a third party IP
I don't think something like this is even a possibility for any of the 3 consoles. "Megatons "would be something completely amazing, and that's never going to happen.

COD DLC 2 weeks early?

Oh, it's happening.

I think UC4 will be pushed into 2016 too..

No man's sky will be popular.. yep.

1080p/30fps will become the established norm and people will have to accept it.
 
No way Quantum Break gets pushed to 2016.


My rather big & bold predictions for 2015.

1.) VR is going to be massive and fundamentally change the way we view and make games.

then we are going to have to spend a lot of money to use it as no console can do it justice. but more like 3D, not enough will buy into having to wear stuff to play games.

Godus becoming console exclusive to WiiU. Calling it!
more likely it will get past the beta stage on PC.
 
My prediction is...all of Nike's predictions will never come to pass and we'll all point and laugh at him while sip tea and eat croutons.

Ze Prophet haz spoken!
 
instead of price cut we may see an upgrade in hdd to 1TB.

I don't think Sony can afford for UC to be delayed.

Nintendo needs to contact valve to have a Nintendo steam machine that runs steam and with exclusive Nintendo games. Don't have to worry about 3rd party.

Sony VR will be shown and price will be expensive.

Ms will show off the cloud power with real-time gameplay of crackdown.

and a few fanboy moments :p

The division will use cloud server's on XB1. MP will be better on xbox.

Witcher 3 will be 1st game to use DX12 on xbox.
 
I think the Xbox One will definitely have a permanent price drop by May or June the latest. It's the only way they can keep up with the PS4. Either way this gen is already decided. I don't see Uncharted 4 being delayed but i could see Quantum Break needing more time. It only took Remedy 5 years to finish Alan Wake. Naughty Dog on the other hand gets their games out on time. UC4 will be ready for this holiday.

No chance Nintendo talks about new hardware anytime soon. The Wii U is doing fine in terms of software sales and turning an actual profit. Nintendo doesn't take a huge risk on the hardware like Sony and Microsoft does. No need to panic, just keep releasing those awesome first party games and Nintendo is good to go. Plus if they start talking about new hardware they will only hurt sales even more.
 
1. A major retailer will Dreamcast the Wii U.
2. Last Guardian will be refocused to show off Morpheus, announced E3 or TGS.
3. The Assassin's Creed 2016 game details will be leaked before the 2015 game releases.
4. Nintendo will announce a hardware revision with the word Super in the title.
5. Zelda Wii U will be awesome and get me to crack and pick up a Super Wii U.

Didn't Sony just announce that they sold 18.5 million PS4's in a little more than a year? Don't they have a roughly 9 million unit lead on second place? I'm pretty sure they can afford to let UC slip a few months into 2016.

It doesn't matter what the lead is. If Sony lets Uncharted 4 slip into 2016 they'll be asking for trouble. Microsoft is already locked in to win next holiday with the release of Halo 5: Guardians. If Sony doesn't have their best game ready then the gap will be that much bigger in favor of the X1.

Are 9 million PS4's going to vanish off the face of the earth if Uncharted 4 gets delayed?

The thought was ridiculous. If anyone can afford a high profile release slipping into 2016, it's Sony.

TDBank, you will learn this stuff when you are ready. Until then you will be forced to root for second place.
 
There is no way that The Division one is going to happen. It's going to be delayed or Watch_Dogs'd.
 
Good stuff PV. Out of your 5 picks, it seems the first 2 are true already. The other 3 are wait and see.
 
2.) Nintendo's next console will be a powerhouse and more traditional. Will target core gamers from the start.

Just found this thread. Saw the bolded statement and never laughed so hard in my life. Thanks for that. Hilarious.

You're welcome.

Has been proven wrong too, as Nintendo's next console seems like it will be some weird hybrid :sad:

Yeah, sorry man. Nintendo couldn't find the core gamer if they b!*$#-slapped them in the face.
