Now we have 2015 to look forward to.
Will 2015 be as much of a roller coaster ride as this year?
We sure hope so.
Hopefully more good than bad, though.
If this wasnt the worst start to a new generation of consoles, its certainly one of the worst.
You cant make a quick buck if your entire fanbase no longer has any faith in your products.
Things will have to change if all of the big publishers hope to have a healthy financial year.
Theyll have to give us quality games.
It didnt happen last year when people started talking about it.
Nothing the year before.
What do we get at every E3?
Were not getting our hopes up this year.
Rare Ltd. will finally announce a game that isnt Kinect Sports
Where did Rare go wrong?
But the guys at Microsoft keep telling us that Rare is working on something new.
And hopefully its notKinect Sports.Banjoo-Kazooiemight be a safe bet.Perfect DarkandGoldenEyeare way less likely.
Maybe a new IP?
Bond returns
People want more Bond afterSkyfall.
Their take on the license was veryCOD-like, and the franchise really suffered for it.
Could it be that RARE got their baby back?
LOL, probably not.
Who knows if anyone will botheractuallypicking up the license, though.
And thats a damn shame.
Youve probably heard by now that theres a newStar Warsfilm coming out next December, right?
That means that there will be at least one newStar Warsvideo game out in time for the movie.
Will BioWare, the third studio working on aStar Warsgame, join the party?
So DICE and Visceral will carry most of the weight next year.
Its inevitable that well get another helping of Joel and Ellie by 2016.
In fact, theyre probably developing the game in an underground vault somewhere as we speak.
None of us are complaining.
Were just wondering how Naughty Dog can possibly top themselves…They always pull it off, though.
We should know by now that nothing can keep this beloved company down.
What more could you possibly ask for?
Maybe a newMetroidgame, but that probably wont be until 2016.
Yes, World of Warcraft is still king of the MMORPG and for good reason.
Its a solid experience with a lot of fun things to do.
But its also 10 years old (11 by next year).
How much longer can the title ride on its merits?
This is basically a countdown for the inevitableWoW 2announcement.
That said, Blizzard has stated that it plans to release new expansions much more quickly.
This will definitely help keep players interests.
Still, the subs will be way below the 10M mark by late next year.
Well start with the things that will probably go free-to-play:WildStarandThe Elder Scrolls Online.
Well also get some new releases.
The big titles on deck areEverQuest Next,Star Citizen, andH1Z1.
Well just have to wait and see, wont we?
Its been a truly great run, but were excited to see something new.
What will Rocksteady work on next?
For that matter, what is WB Games Montreal working on next?
Rumor has it that the Origins timeline introduced in 2013sArkham Originswill continue after Rocksteady concludes its trilogy.
The earlier years of Batmans vigilante career will be at the forefront of the next installment.
Will Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment introduce a new series inspired by another classic comic book storyline?
Or will they tacke a new superhero?
It remains to be seen, but well probably hear about it by next years E3.
The veteran RPG developer will be looking to capitalize on that success.
Theyll likely unveil the new game at E3 2015.
Honestly, we just want to kill more orcs.
Its the reason why Agent Locke is out looking for him across the galaxy.
So what will part of the games plot involve?
Finding Cortana somehow and bringing her home.
Although it will be a trap, hell actually find a way to bring Cortana back from the dead.
Will we be happy about it?
Part of us, the part with a soul, will be very happy for Chief.
Unless Valve feels like releasingHalf-Life 3.
Nintendos big flagship is not only releasing on a new console.
Its also evolving into something bigger than weve ever seen.Were calling it now: Link wins big in 2015!
If life has taught us anything, its that our little Hylian hero is always a contender.
