This idea sounds awful. They shouldn’t be able to ban anyone in the first place.

I’m not too excited for much stuff on Xbox this year, but my most anticipated game coming to Xbox right now is KOF XV.

I thought there was an article about this about 4 to 5 months ago saying the same thing. It’s a shame very little progress has been made. I hope they can show at least an updated trailer in 2022, but that’s looking unlikely.

I have been playing the game for a while now and I gotta ask, is there a way to unlock credits by playing the game? If not, what is the purpose of credits and why not just list the price? It seems kinda manipulative.

I never tried the elder scrolls and tried an hour or less of fallout 3 and new vegas. Bethesda and western rpgs in general never clicked with me. Maybe I’ll try this since it’s a new IP and there’s no barrier since I could download it for “free” with gamepass.

I’m excited to see what they do next. Whether it is a platformer like psychonauts or adventure game like grim fandango or something else, I’ll be sure to check it out. As suggested above, I’d like to see their take on Banjo-Kazooie, but I also think their take on Conker would be hilarious.

I’m enjoying Halo Infinite a lot, but I voted for Psychonauts 2. It was a wonderful game all around.

The awards themselves were better than last year, but the announcements were underwhelming. Nintendo didn’t bother to show up even though they announced something new at the game awards I think every year that the game awards existed which was lame. I was hoping Metroid Dread would win the big award and Psychonauts 2 would win something, but It Takes Two seems like a good game that I’d love to play if I had someone to play with. Biggest snub was NEO The World Ends With You not winning or being nominated for best soundtrack, but at least Nier won. Overall it was an ok show.

I just remembered that Square Enix announced that they signed an exclusive deal for a game they already had an exclusive deal for and the game is still not coming to xbox which was the worst announcement of the night.

It looks good. Can’t wait to play it.

The idea is interesting, but this is basically a non-announcement since I got no sense of story, gameplay, or a release window.

“Buy our game now at full price and the game might be considered good in an unspecified amount of years worth of updates that we may or may not actually follow through with” is what I’m hearing. I’ve never been a battlefield fan, I just think this is funny.

I played doa5 and 6 but not the other games in the franchise. I was surprised to see they weren’t backwards compatible already but I’m glad they were added so I could try the older games too.

If I download the game, I’d primarily play solo, so this news is disappointing.

I’ll probably download scarlet nexus and astria ascending. I would download ai the somnium files if I didn’t already buy it for switch.

I haven’t played a call of duty game since ghosts so I’m not too interested in this. It seems like the hype for vanguard is the lowest for a call of duty game in recent history, so with this news it seems people are looking forward to seeing what comes after vanguard than vanguard itself.

My copy should be coming in soon so I’ll have to see for myself, but this seems a bit confusing.

I’ll get to this after I finally finish Vesperia. Similar to other opinions in this comment section, I’m not so impressed with Vesperia but I’m determined to see it through. I did enjoy Berseria a bit which gives me hope for this game.

I have never played Dark Souls in my life, but the way I see it is if it had a difficulty option, the franchise would not be as popular as it is today. People say that adding difficulty options would open the game up to more people amd more people would buy the game, but it defeats the purpose of buying the game in the first place.

If you play Dark Souls on easy mode, what is the purpose of playing the game? The story? No one ever really talks about the story in the Souls games too often, so I assume that it is not that impressive/interesting in terms of video game storytelling but I could be wrong. The gameplay? The game is seemingly designed around its difficulty with the goal being overcoming a great challenge and the satisfaction that comes with it. The beautiful graphics and environments? From what I have seen, the game is very visually boring.

The reason why people seem to be attracted to the game in the first place was because of how exclusive and elite it was. People wanted to buy the game to test themselves and see if they could become one of the elites that beat the game. If everyone beat the game, no one is elite. If everyone’s super, no one will be.

I hope they aren’t forced to release on that day. If the game isn’t ready, don’t release it in the same state that cyberpunk 2077 released in. Halo doesn’t need any more bad press. It might get some backlash for being delayed again, but I don’t think it would be nearly the same amount as it would get if it were released with a ton of bugs.

I’ve only played Berseria and Vesperia. I enjoyed Berseria, but there is a lot of stuff in Vesperia that annoyed me. This game looks good though.

The only reason I wanted to buy a series x was because my disc drive on my xbox one broke and it didn’t seem like I could fix/replace it. So far I’m enjoying it, but I definitely could have waited as it feels no different from the xbox one.

I’m pleasantly surprised to see this on xbox, but I bought the first game on switch and would probably get this game for switch too. Maybe I’d buy if on switch and then download it and replay it if/when it comes to Gamepass.

So they had four years of development and no gameplay to show for it. I feel like cinematic trailers only work when it’s for a franchise that has been around long enough for the viewer to already have an idea on how the game is going to play or if they already have shown gameplay and want to try something different.

It was a good showing. I would have liked less cinematic trailers that give me no idea what the gameplay would be like such as contraband and redfall, but it was still a good showing.

I hope the exclusivity period for ffxvi is just as short, but I doubt it. Oddworld Soulstorm doesn’t look very good and if I wanted to get into the franchise I’d just play the originals on steam or something.

I was going to pick psychonauts because I enjoyed the first game and the second looks really good, but I picked Halo Infinite because that multiplayer trailer was impressive.

@Magabro Microsoft pretty much already made their own crossover fighting game with Killer Instinct. I hope they expand on that idea and make their crossover outside of the Killer Instinct franchise. The Forza Kart idea sounds interesting too.

I just saw the news that ea was hacked and I can’t help but laugh. I didn’t realize the pc version was $60. I have no idea why they up the price on consoles but not pc.

This game looks interesting. If anything, it reminded me that we haven’t heard too much about playdead’s follow up to inside. I wonder if they are going to make an appearance at e3.

I saw reviews of the switch version and it didn’t look good. Glad I bought it for xbox.

It amazes me that companies like ea and dice will cut content and then charge more than standard. What’s worse is the people that will defend this decision.

Never played battlefield before. I mostly grew up playing call of duty. I thought I might check this out, but then I saw the $70 price point. That’s a dealbreaker.

I just preordered the ninja gaiden trilogy the other day. Hope it turns out well.

@The_New_Butler It seems like there are mote articles confirming games not being at e3 than confirming games that are going to be there. Hopefully there are some surprises but definitely tempering some expectations.

I don’t have a problem with cross gen right now since many of these games currently being released were in development for a few years now and were designed with last gen in mind. Many of these games wouldn’t take full advantage of the new hardware and only improve the graphics which can be scaled. In a year or two when the devs fully understand the hardware and can innovate in things that directly affect gameplay instead of just visuals, they should drop cross gen. The problem people have with it currently seems to be the hypocrisy of Sony.

So rumored guardians of the galaxy game from square enix, rumored marvel fighting game from nrs, and now this. Anything else marvel that I am potentially missing?

What I want to hear more about is ffxvi and if they have a new (or maybe an old rerelease) tomb raider game. More on dqxii would be nice too, but I’m not expecting it. Other than that, I can’t say there’s much more I want from square enix.

I played a few games and I had a lot of fun. I’m glad it was on Gamepass because it looked like a game I was interested in, but not something I would be willing to pay for. I already bought too many games within the last month.

I think a portal movie that focuses less on Chel vs GLaDOS and more on Aperture Science could work. I hope J K Simmons would be able to play Cave Johnson if he’s in the movie.

@eduscxbox maybe gamepass for games? Lol

Do they have a date and time for the showcase yet?

I played this last year on my laptop. 3D platformers probably shouldn’t be played with a mouse and keyboard, but I enjoyed it. I might play it again on xbox with a controller to see how much it improves the experience.

I only played an hour or two of the original Mass Effect snd I can’t say I’m interested in this. It just didn’t grab me.

If a sequel exists and it comes to xbox I might check it out. I played a few hours of it and while I had fun, I wouldn’t care to play the sequel that much.

If xbox also wanted to have narrative focused games while also try to expand into the Japanese market, I would also like to see games that have more visual novel elements than hollywood blockbuster elements. I love games like zero escape, danganronpa, and ace attorney and would love to see games like those or even those series specifically come to xbox. I recently played ghost trick and it quickly became one of my favorite games of all time.

Edit: thinking about it a bit more, those series might be considered more character focused than narrative focused. Ace attorney and danganronpa are probably more well known for their interesting and wacky characters than their interesting plots. Zero escape is probably closer to narrative focused than the other two. Either way, I would still like to see more games like those on xbox.

@UltimateOtaku91 when I bought my ps4 it was bundled with uncharted 4. I bought the nathan drake collection because I wanted to try the whole series for myself. If I didn’t already own the games, I probably would have stopped after beating 2. I played 1 and thought it was ok and then played 2 to see if they made any improvements to the sequel. It might be a little better but it felt like more of the same. I played 3 because like I said I already owned the game but also because I remembered hearing that they made some changes to the gameplay that some people liked and some people didn’t. Uncharted 3 was my least favorite game in the series. I started playing 4 because I owned it and felt the need to finish the series and I’m glad I did because I like 4 the most out of the series. I think it’s the rope that gives combat some extra mobility that makes me like it the best. Overall, the series is not my thing but I’m still glad I played them. Sometimes you need to experience games that you don’t like to better understand the games that you do like.

I’ve played uncharted 1-3, currently playing uncharted 4 and also played the last of us with no interest in playing 2. I have not enjoyed any of them but it is clear that for some reason other people do, so Microsoft should attempt to make a game to bring those people to their ecosystem. If anything, instead of trying to imitate naughty dog, I would prefer Xbox should try to imitate team ico or giant squid and make games that are smaller in scale with beautiful visuals, are fun to play, and are focused on the overall experience rather than the narrative itself.

I didn’t like the game anyway and I would only download it when it comes to xbox to see if episode Yuffie is any better than the base game, which I doubt. Final Fantasy xvi looks more interesting to me, but that has it’s own undisclosed and confusing timed exclusivity surrounding it.

I think it’s funny that Square Enix is moving away from turn based gameplay with final fantasy while yakuza is moving towards it. I’d love to see a turn based final fantasy again, but I guess bravely default and octopath traveler/triangle strategy exists.

I’m excited to play the game, but I just started playing RE6 for the first time and after I want to beat RE7. I’ll get to this in a few months.
