BIG3

After seeing the trailer I realised I might be too old for GTA.

I have 3 games in my backlog I'm trying to wrap up.
Xbox: Shadow of Tomb Raider
Switch: Metroid Dread and TotK
PS5: Nothing
Might pick up something new next week if they run any Game Awards sales.

For Xbox: updates, new trailers and or release dates on Hellblade 2, Fable, BG3, Avowed, Everwild, Contraband, GoW6 or Stalker 2.
For everything else: Death Stranding 2, Stellar Blade, Aftermath, Dragons Dogma 2, Crimson Desert and something new from Nintendo.
If I get new info on 2-3 of these games I'm happy.

I bought one when they were new and its kind of cool to have but it is a bit noisy. So I wouldnt recommend having it next to your setup or in the living room.

That "eat" function is essential. Glad it came around.

Now please make it so you can skip the temple puzzles and don't have to run through 10ng+ to max them. There are enough planets to just scatter 260 temples around the universe after reaching Unity once.

Of course Xbox will "be there". At the least to show some ads for GPU and the consoles. My guess is some new announcements for GPU, maybe even some shadow drops. I'm hoping for new ads for upcoming games and maybe one or two new announcements.

This is a good look for Microsoft.

Probably a good shadow drop to GPU during Game Awards.

Xbox Series X: Wrapping up the two final endings in Cyberpunk and playing Halo Infinite.

I didn't buy it because they have announced two dlcs coming next year. So Im waiting for an ultimate edition. I also heard there was some audio issues on release and thats a non negotiable for me.

@Lup Agree. I feel like everything is set up for a strong 2024 both on GPU and 1st party games.

Bet it shadow drops at TGA, fingers crossed its on GPU.

@MandoloreShepard agree 💯 A remake/remaster category is needed.

You lost your mind when you wrote Uncharted 3 wasnt worthy of a nomination.

I'll buy BG3 the second it comes out on Xbox, even though I got a PS5 and could have bought it already.

@LaurenceJ1987 I'm not. It's 26 powers and you have to find them 10 times each over the course of ten ng+ runs to fully upgrade them. The temples also appear on random planets each playthrough...

Ive only been a part of this era so this is definetly it. A lot of it is thanks to backward compitability and GPU.

Bought the white Starfield wrapper that match the controller and headset. It's gorgeous.

@makk_zucc The fact that you have to find the temples and do the puzzle 260 times in order to max all powers is insane. I have no idea why they approved this. I picked them all up once and was done with them. And even that was a chore. One of the few gripes I have with the game btw.

This would have been a nice surprise at the game awards.

Ah yes. That eat button will be awesome. Now if they make it so you can skip he temple puzzles after the first one.

Cyberpunk. Really enjoying my second run. I'm spending a lot of time exploring which I didn't do the first time around.

Sounds chill. Might play it with the GF.

Xbox Series X: I unlocked all the achievements in Starfield recently so now Im doing a 2nd playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077. Played it on release and only focused on main story due to buggyness. This time I plan to explore more.
Switch Oled: Nothing, but I really should wrap up TotK soon...
PS5: Nothing, but I plan on jumping into Alan Wake 2 and BG3 once I've finished the other games mentioned already.

@themightyant ign review live now https://youtu.be/LrBtgQVjp3I?feature=shared

@themightyant Says on Metacritic reviews arent available until tomorrow...

I'm sure I will buy this further down the line. I hope it reviews and sells well but mostly, I hope day one players enjoys it!

Alan Wake 2 looked great. And I cant wait to explore DonDoko Island. Lol.

@frabbit Must admit it would be a smart move. I hope they do it.

In comparison Switch highest rated list contains at least 4 Switch exclusives.

@themightyant this list is way more interesting! A shame Starfield still dont crack the top 10. I personally really enjoyed it.

With so many remakes I must admit this list was pretty uninteresting no matter how good the games on the list are.

Im betting on a gameplay reveal at the game awards.

I unlocked all achievements and 10ng+ runs in Starfield so now I'm taking a break from gaming before I either jump back to wrap up TotK or do another run in Cyberpunk. Have a good weekend everybody!

Got that Starfield wrap for my Series X the other day. Its gorgeous. And now it matches my PS5 and Oled.

Time to jump back in!!

Best part about the deal closing is now we can focus solely on games and events again.

I always jump in when theres a new Halo season. Looking forward to it!

Series X: Still Starfield. Only achievement I'm missing is lvl 100 before finishing the final main quest. I've had an amazing time and I'm really looking forward to NG+.
PS5 and Switch OLED: Still resting.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner I know but I still think it was a terrible move. Game died on arrival and even Phil had to apologize.

If only they would have pushed this game back to Halloween...

I absolutely love it! About to unlock all achievements. Been a very fun ride. Next up is Cyberpunk.

Oh no. They fixed the vendor in Akila. Used to use him for free bullets

Can I be honest? I don't even remember all the games I've played this year. Gonna have to do a check at the end of the year and then rank what I've played. But if you asked me right now I'd say Starfield because I'm having way more fun than I thought I would.

So hooked on Starfield its insane. My Switch and PS5 is on timeout.

IGN and their streak of 7/10 continues. lol.

Love Like A Dragon. Can't wait to dive back in.

@Sveakungen Heard you need to queue even if you're playing solo. Can you confirm? Because that's a deal breaker for me.

All I know is it worked for me. Because I couldnt get a PS5 or Series X at launch so I settled for the Series S to check out GPU and play Cyberpunk (lol). Now I bought a Series X as well because I wanted more power and because I'm extremely happy with what the Xbox offer. Especially because this is the first Xbox I've ever owned.

GTA 5 is the game Ive played the most, both single player and online. And I couldnt care less for another installment in the series. Too many other great games to play and coming up.
