Man, I'm so glad this didn't come to fruition. I still can't get over Kojima replacing David Hayter with Kiefer Sutherland... Just bonkers.

Dirt Rally 2.0 is excellent. Difficult, to be sure, but excellent.

I'm guessing we'll be looking at 60fps with ray tracing. Possibly increased population density. I might be tempted to pay a small upgrade fee depending on what gets added, but I'm sincerely hoping it will be a free upgrade.

Halo: Combat Evolved is still my favourite. That game holds so many special memories for me.

Like a true dragon; I'm out.

I must admit, with the rumours swirling around the Dead Space franchise, I've gone right back to the first game and plan to play the entire trilogy in the coming weeks. I've also got A Plague Tale: Innocence on standby ready for the Series X/S upgrade.

Sonic Mania is great, but I've always had a soft spot for Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.

Love the design of the Banished vehicles, they look a lot more industrial than their Covenant counterparts. So happy the Chopper is back, too!

So, here's my dream wishlist for a Halo/Smash crossover:

Character: Chief
Mirror Character: Arbiter
Stage: Delta Halo backdrop, Scarab pops up at various intervals
Music: Halo Main Theme, Brothers In Arms, On a Pale Horse, A Walk in the Woods

Last year's stream was a mess, lots of freeze frames and flickering. Hope it's a bit more stable this time.

From Software are on another level when it comes to character and enemy design.

I personally don't believe they'll announce anymore acquisitions. They need to show what they can do with their current line up. We've had hints and teasers, but we need to see something substantial now.

I played a bit of Watch Dogs: Legion when they added the 60fps patch. I was hoping it would make the game a bit more enjoyable, but uhh... nah, it's still quite boring.

The original was great, though I must admit I personally prefer the two Curse of the Moon titles.

I don’t understand why they released the first Crysis on its own recently. Why not just wait until the trilogy was ready..?

When I see this, part of me thinks "oh no, now I can't play Kingdom Hearts", but then I quickly remind myself that I can't stand those games. FOMO is very real.

My God, if those are all genuine, then they've absolutely knocked it out the park. They sound fantastic, proper Combat Evolved vibes!

Wow, that looks amazing!

Yep, I think I'll be getting this!

I've got Sonic 1, 2, and 3 on the Series X already via backwards compatibility. So this isn't really for me, but happy for anyone excited for it!

All right, let's go! Very excited to see what they have up their sleeves.

Excited to see what they unveil!

Oh myyy, this is going to be a hefty one!

It's one of those moments that, once you've experienced it, will never again have the same impact.

@Alan_Payne I actually feel the exact opposite! I thought the sequel was just the right amount of open world; large enough to encourage exploration, but no where near big enough that it felt bloated and dull.
I'd encourage you to try it again, if you haven't already, because it didn't quite click with me first time. Now, I think it's leaps and bounds ahead of the first game.

I've just completed the Feros mission in the first game (those Thorian Creepers are still awful enemies; they're the equivalent of Halo's Flood). The game looks and feels fantastic!

@blinx01 Denial: the first stage of grief.

I haven't finished Village just yet, but it's a wonderful ride so far; expertly paced.

Excited for this!

Fabulous review, as always PJ!

Whether a game is considered scary or not is entirely subjective. Roaming around the Baker Mansion while Jack calls out to Ethan in a high-pitched tone of voice was honestly quite funny to me, not scary.

On the flip side, I played the RE: Village demo (after telling myself not to), and having those Lycans stalk you through the long grass was nerve-wracking!

Buy Alan Wake. Just buy it.

Here we go... The pre-E3 Leak Fest begins.

Resident Evil Village all the way. I'm equally excited and nervous to see how the story plays out!

Fun fact: this patch is 5.37GB larger than the first Mass Effect game in its entirety, and only 1.32GB smaller than Mass Effect 2.

I bought, of all things, Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered, and it's not too bad! The gameplay is a bit iffy, but it's just good, clean fun, kinda like Destroy All Humans.

This is wonderful news! Who wants more Crash and Spyro anyway?

... said no one ever.

"Someone".

Natsume confirmed!

Highly recommend this. It's such a fun, light-hearted game!

Exciting month ahead!

Still not playing the demo. I'm avoiding as much as I can until the game's launch.

@The_New_Butler I think you're right, but I don't think it will go down that way. It comes down to optics; they could release both at the same time and ride a wave of positivity for a few weeks, but what happens then? After 2 or 3 months, people will be clamouring for new games again. My personal opinion is they should release their 2021 games one month apart each: Forza, Halo, then Starfield.

If they're aiming to launch this year, they need to be really careful with the timing of both Halo Infinite and Starfield.

My guess is Halo is coming out in November, so they'd want to either get well ahead of that and launch Starfield in late September or early October, or they wait until December.

Launching both in November would be a mistake, in my eyes.

I'm replaying RE7 ahead of the release of Village.

Some good scores there! Will likely check this out at some point, but I want to make my way through the main Yakuza series first.

I wasn't expecting this to show up on Game Pass anyway, at least not within the first year.

Those shelves have been very carefully arranged to appear within the shot; there's no way they would include a Switch unless they're trying to say something.

Something's happening.

Imagine if, after all this hype, she's in it for like 10 minutes.

I've been with the series since the very beginning, so I was terrified that the changes RE7 was bringing to the table wouldn't resonate with me. Thankfully, it's a great game, and I can't wait to see how Village expands on it!

Not a chance. The first time I experience the village and the castle, I want to be able to spend as much time as necessary to take in all the sights.
