Now that we know the console specs and we're roughly 6-8 months from launch - the next anticipated milestone for next gen is E3 or rather online replacement events around the E3 timeframe.
Not everyone has committed to one of these yet but I can imagine most of the big players will have some sort of online show, if not in early June, then a month or so before or after. For simplicities sake and for the purpose of this thread I'm just going to refer to this period as "E3".
So...we know the specs, we know roughly the launch (late 2020), let's predict the most important part - the games. What do you think we'll see promoted at each or the major players' "E3" presentations?
My opinions...
