Event - E3 Invitational 2014 E3 2014 Rumor/Leak Discussion Thread

[TehSilentOne]

- Lots of spiritual dust here. Lots of it.

phantom dust. yus. I've been hyped all day from that.

..but i dont understand this leak thing you're discussing

 

[GamerGuy09]

What is the Riddle Leak? The last leak I know of is the Klonoa leak that was proven false.

 

[fogbadge]

im looking forward to and end to these daft rumors


then again a new set will show up soon enough

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Conker

Fairly certain he wouldn't cite the same thing twice in his riddle, I'm certain that if the leak is real the odd cameo is most certainly Conker, that really came out of nowhere.

 

[Zinfandel]

"Microsoft will drive you nuts" totally gave me a Conker-reference-vibe though.

Yeah, that is not a big leap, actually... Hmm.

 

[Cheezey Bites]

Cameo could be the capcom super ultra....plua alpha? or not have happened yet..

 

[ScottyWK]

" A COMBination of 6 more fighters!"

A COMB = BAMCO unscrambled.

 

[ChunkyBeef]

Friendly reminder not to take the riddle leak particularly seriously 'cause vague, confusing descriptions can translate into lots of things.

Though I'll be honest, Conker showing up was a huge surprise to me. Hoping for a resurgence in what made Rare great.

 

[Shroob]

" A COMBination of 6 more fighters!"

A COMB = BAMCO unscrambled.

"....My god."

 

[Spazzy_D]

Friendly reminder not to take the riddle leak particularly seriously 'cause vague, confusing descriptions can translate into lots of things.

And that's the problem with religion in a nutshell.

Hey... "ONE precious material is surprising (and yet everyone already knows it)" - Platinum Games Xbox ONE exclusive game?

That's got to be it, right?

 

[ScottyWK]

- The dog is tired again. Will take another rest at Los Angeles.
- The screen is disappearing for 169 good reasons.
- Hand-cannon! I mean, hand-cannon. This really charged me up!
- Microsoft will drive you nuts. (Conker)
- Nominally, the beast is not actually a beast, it has more soul in it. (They had a game where you can play as the main monster)
- Have you even been in Suburbia? (please note, this is huge. Really)
- A COMBination of 6 more fighters!
- Heard the cries of battle in the Sony stand (PS All-Stars 2 Leak confirms this?)
- That's a huge rooster, mr Spencer. What will it do this time?
- Lots of spiritual dust here. Lots of it. (Phantom Dust remake)
- This will be the show of the dragons, i tell you. Lots of them all around. (all those dragons in various games)
- Actually, no one is looking for sailors.
- Captive Communication loves PAST exclusives.
- ONE precious material is surprising (and yet everyone already knows it)
- That's totally NOT a chocobo.
- That's a weird cameo appearance. (Either Conker or the weird DLC for that Ultra Hyper edition plus alpha game)
- Mechs + Destruction + happy fans
- 50 less bucks 4 you to keep.
- Who needs ninjas in 2015?
- Now, that's a LOT of red hair(s).
- Who said that the black tooth worked on just one project?
- Originals! Also, tentacles.


We're getting quite a few so far.

 

[Shroob]

So....this leak is telling the future.... So we should expect 6 characters tomorrow.... Hooo boy the hype is real.

The 6 more fighters could be for Playstation All-Stars. It's vague, so if the riddle is legit, there's no telling what that refers to.

Well, you yourself pointed out the Bamco hint.

 

[Yoshi-Thomas]

Easy, the six fighters tomorrow are Palutena, Mike Jones, Ness, Ridley, the Namco rep and Mii if what Leakerbros said is true.

 

[ScottyWK]

Well, you yourself pointed out the Bamco hint.

True. Just trying to keep things in perspective and open to all possibilities.

6 fighters wouldn't be that weird, considering there's plenty of vets not yet revealed. Wario + MK + Ice Climbers + Ganondorf + 2 newcomers. Or some iteration similar to this.

What's this about? Where did it come from?

 

[Neo Zero]

Lucas instead of Mii, remember, he is supposedly in Mike Jones trailer

 

[Spazzy_D]

My Unlikely predictions for tomorrow are Palutena, Mike Jones, Ness, Ridley, the Namco rep and Mii.

Fixed for future prophecy.

 

[N3ON]

Seems to me that someone who would pose a leak in a riddle is more concerned with taunting people than actually getting the information out as clearly as they can.

Doesn't reek of validity to me even on that basis alone.

 

[Shroob]

We're STILL talking about leakerbro?.... Granted, it's not to say I don't want Lucas shown asap.

@ N3ON : This stuff happens all the time, like with Lupinko and U.Marvel vs Capcom 3.

 

[Staarih]

Even if we did get 6 characters for Smash, it would probably be a mix of veterans (3-4) and newcomers (2-3).

 

[GamerGuy09]

Why did he say "COMB", does that have any significance? Maybe that isn't even for Smash.

 

[Deleted member]

That's worth something at least. 6 characters being announced would be pretty insane, by that point we'd already have more characters than there were character slots in Brawl.

Aaaaand that's all folks.
Going to see AVATAR for a huge surprise.

I am going to need a source for that. Where was it originally posted.

That's hardly insane. We had twelve characters announced at E3 2013; six is what I expected to see there.

 

[ScottyWK]

What's this about? Where did it come from?

This riddle leak was posted like a week or two ago, if I remember correctly. Everyone shrugged it off because it was in riddle form (most leaks are pretty straight-forward). If someone wants to find the link from pages back, great. I don't feel like finding it

 

[Shroob]

Why did he say "COMB", does that have any significance? Maybe that isn't even for Smash.

A COMB in all caps, anagram for BAMCO.

 

[Neo Zero]

Oh if I'm to honestly guess based on realisticness, I would guess MK, Wario, Ness, Shulk, Ridley and Pac Man. I was just correcting Yoshi is all

 

[GamerGuy09]

A COMB in all caps, anagram for BAMCO.

Who the hell is this guy and why does he have info on everyone? Where did this even come from?

 

[TehSilentOne]

So.. tho this doesn't need to be nintendo related.. Hand-cannon could be wii-u metroid.

Don't see anything that requires zelda-u tho T_T theres still hope

 

[Yoshi-Thomas]

Lucas instead of Mii, remember, he is supposedly in Mike Jones trailer

Do you have the sentence where he says so ? I'm pretty sure he just gave Lucas name like this.

 

[Banjodorf]

Oh if I'm to honestly guess based on realisticness, I would guess MK, Wario, Ness, Shulk, Ridley and Pac Man. I was just correcting Yoshi is all

I'd be almost perfectly content if those were the newcomers that showed up at E3. (Not with the whole roster, just for E3 reveals)

*Looks at sig in sadness.*

 

[Neo Zero]

Perhaps one of the organizers has to review every planned conference before it happens. However the issue is Nintendo, they don't have a conference. Perhaps A COMB refers to Soul Calibur 6?

On my phone, but it was in post 2 of Leakerbros if you can find that.

 

[Sabrewulf238]

Seems to me that someone who would pose a leak in a riddle is more concerned with taunting people than actually getting the information out as clearly as they can.

Doesn't reek of validity to me even on that basis alone.

On the other hand it takes all kinds to make up the world.

Why does somebody with inside information HAVE to treat it seriously?

 

[MasterOfKnees]

That's hardly insane. We had twelve characters announced at E3 2013; six is what I expected to see there.

That was the game's reveal though, that's always going to net a ton of reveals regardless of where or when it's at. I wouldn't expect it to be that extreme this time around at all.

 

[CrusherMania1592]

Someone stop this madness. Too much to endure at once!

 

[Shroob]

Perhaps one of the organizers has to review every planned conference before it happens. However the issue is Nintendo, they don't have a conference. Perhaps A COMB refers to Soul Calibur 6?

I'd argue that it's still smash. Even though it was an anagram, from the sound of it, he's hinting a combination of new and old characters.

 

[ScottyWK]

One thing to remember....don't always try to combine leaks. The riddle leak =/= LeakerBros =/= SalRomano's leak

 

[JaidynReiman]

On my phone, but it was in post 2 of Leakerbros if you can find that.

That's incredibly possible and likely. We know Soulcalibur 6 is in development.

 

[Shroob]

That was the game's reveal though, that's always going to net a ton of reveals regardless of where or when it's at. I wouldn't expect it to be that extreme this time around at all.

Well, we got 5 characters in the Direct, one more for a huge event like this doesn't seem that outrageous.

 

[N3ON]

@ N3ON : This stuff happens all the time, like with Lupinko and U.Marvel vs Capcom 3.

Yeah, and the vast majority of the time it's fake...

Even if there has been an exception here and there almost every valid leak I can think of has not been posed in a way in which the leaker deliberately makes understanding what is being said an effort.

Especially since so close to E3 stuff does tend to leak, and a blatant and clear leak here would steal all the thunder, like what happened with the UMvC3 newcomers.
