Ooh Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and Xenogears Origin

Ugh Gears of War 4, Uncharted 4 despite being a tech demo, and God of War 4. (I loved Gears of War's Campaign and Horde mode, but after 3 I don't see how its even Possible to make a continuation for that and come on Naughty Dog don't make another Uncharted game or else you break the Cycle: PS1 Crash Bandicoot, PS2 Jak and Daxtar. PS3 Uncharted, PS4 More Uncharted? I rather have more The Last of Us or new game and God of War 4 I do not know how they are going to continue the story after the ending of 3)

Hmm New Zelda, Star Wars Battlefront 3 (I mabye going against the majority of zelda fans but I like the more realistic style in games like Twilight Princess and Ocarina of Time, I hope even more that the fuffil their statement of making Hyrule as huge as possible lke an Open World and not fufill continueing to implement Wiimote+Nunchuck controls.
As for Star Wars Battlefront 3....I don't know the chances of it becoming just another Battlefield/COD clone Multiplayer wise is pretty strong, I really do not want to unlock an X-Wing)

Personally, the choice of 3DS makes some sense, it's pretty successful right now, Lords of Shadow Mirror of Fate did alright there, and the better Castlevanias of the past while were on GBA/DS, but I would think that Vita would make some sense as well, or at least both. Mostly for legacy, the original was big on PlayStation, I would think Vita would be sensible. However, I don't have a Vita, but I have a 3DS so if this is true, all the better for me.

Even with Igarashi gone, if its 2d and at least close to the original, I'll be there day one.

I'd guess Xenogears: Origins is the official name for X.

Believe it or not, in all that list I din't found a single interesting game (for my tastes, of course) besides Beyond Good And Evil 2.
About Castlevania: I'm all for a new chapter (the more they release, the more I buy :P), and the 3DS is the best platform I can think of for a game of its genere, but... SOTN 2? Why would there be a need for a direct sequel, if not to draw attention using the big name? I'd rather go with a new setting and new characters.

I'd imagine to say say sorry for Lords of Shadow. More seriously, some fans will be overjoyed for it and get it, and others will be glad it's classic Castlevania instead of Lords of Shadow. My best guesses.

This is probably fake. Always happens in the month leading up to E3, Although a proper 2D Metroidvania game would be awesome.

Xenogears Origins sounds incredibly fake.

I didn't mind LoS, to say the truth, but I can see why many would like a return to the Metroidvania style. I hope they get it right, though... if they don't, the fanboy backlash would be deadly.
Personally, I'd also like to see an old-style Castlevania 5: SCV4 and Rondo of Blood are still my favourite action-platformers!

Edit: I'm speaking like the news were true, though I highly doubt it. Guess we'll see in a few weeks...

Rondo of Blood is my favorite as well. I actually like LoS on 3DS, but I wasn't fond of where they were taking the series with LoS in general. Castlevania is walking on some thin ice and it would be a shame if the next one also falls through, it's too good of a series for that.

Hm. Wasn't there a thread a while ago that the guy behind SOtN had left Konami to do his own thing? They sure picked an interesting time to do a direct sequel.

I hope for a PC version of SOTN2 with 1 included.
