Kick things off with Mortal Kombat X -- coming 2015! More coming at E3. Video NSFW (obviously)

Homefront: The Revolution from Crytek using the new CryEngine. Very impressive in-engine visuals.

Who needs E3? It seems like everyone is announcing all their games in advance of it!

I'm hoping for some Rockstar news. Either Red Dead 2 or a new title would be ideal

They are apparently working on a game thats expected to be realeased before March 2015 so E3 would be a perfect place for an announcement

Pretty much a lock:

http://business.financialpost.com/20...ms/?__lsa=null

The head of Take-Two Interactive, Strauss Zelnick, recently confirmed that the company has plans to continue publishing two of its highly popular franchises, the western themed open world series Red Dead and dystopian first-person shooter, Bioshock.

“I pretty much know the ones that I can assure you are permanent. It’s obvious that GTA is a permanent franchise as long as we keep delivering this incredible quality; it seems quite obvious that Red Dead is a permanent franchise,” said Zelnick

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt pre-E3 trailer. Looking good!

A new Bully game would be amazing.

Highly doubt there's an Alan Wake sequel on the way. Remedy is currently working on Quantum Break, which is slated for 2015

Fingers crossed that more Final Fantasy 15 information is released. I can't believe it's been 8 years now since it was first announced.

It looks like the E3 sale for Futureshop and Best Buy is back on this year.

Futureshop:
Buy 3 pre order games, get up to $20 off per game
http://forums.redflagdeals.com/futur...-game-1488853/

Best Buy:
Pre Order 3 Games or more and get up to 30% Off Each Game
http://forums.redflagdeals.com/best-...promo-1489150/

If we're using the $69.99 price point then Futureshop games come to $49.99 and Best Buy at $48.99. Based on some of the pre-order games that are already listed on the two retailer's web sites some games are priced at $64.99.

Sale for Bestbuy and Futureshop are live.

Best Buy: 30% off 3+ games; 15% off 1 or 2 games
Future Shop: 28.58% off 3+ games; 14.29% off 1 or 2 games

Bestbuy's prices are lower (even if it's by less than a dollar) at any price point.

Excellent! I loved that deal. Saved me a ton on all my Wii U games. As usual, I will wait until after the conferences/first day or two of the show for the new announcements to get added in before I pre-order anything.

Bah, special editions are exempt - the only version of Dragon Age that is available doesn't seem to qualify because of it.
EDIT - NVM, it's on the next page. And it's got controller support for PC - that changes my decision!

And you should probably go with Best Buy if you can anyhow with their reward zone membership thing.

Oh, and in before the "whaaaaaa, anti-consumer!!" battlecry about a higher prices due to the weaker Canadian currency.

Are you talking the "Deluxe Edition"? If you are into that sort of thing, Gamestop has the exclusive Inquisitor Edition but I think that is already long sold out for Canada. Which is kinda crazy.

So with the Best Buy E3 deal, is it just on whatever has already been announced? Or once things get announced at E3 will they be available for preorder immediately?
