I agree as well. With Star Wars Outlaws, I was disappointed with how vague the trailer was regarding gameplay... but looks like they're revealing gameplay tomorrow, so looking forward to that!
Agreed. Can’t tell how far are these games
"Starfield is the most important RPG ever!"
lol
I'm obviously really looking forward to seeing more on Starfield, but here are some other titles I'm hoping to hear about:
- Fable
- Avowed
- Perfect Dark
- Hellblade 2
- Contraband
I'm already happy with what I've seen
FABLE, STAR WARS OUTLAWS, AVOWED??? All look great so far.
Wohoo! Direct thread is here! Let the hype begin! Even as PS user, I love Bethesda games. Have been hearing about Avowed a lot lately. I can always play these games on PC/laptop.
I'm honestly glad both Sony and Microsoft keep pushing PC ports to Steam. My Deck's taking advantage of that.
Tbh it's only been a year or so under Xbox, anyone can love any game anyway :p
Thanks for making this! It's exactly what I was looking for!
I'm keeping my expectations low, but I hope to be surprised.
Hoping for an announcement of Psychonauts 3. Also it would be cool to see some kind of confirmation of Halo project Tatanka, although I think that's unlikely.
Also I'm guessing there will probably be a surprise Game Pass shadow drop, so that will be cool.
Hopefully an announcement of a global rollout of Game Pass Friends and Family too. 👀
That would be cool. I know a lot of people have been eagerly awaiting this.
Interesting title for the inxile game, Clockwork revolution
Absolutely game of the event for me. I genuinely can't wait to see more.
Really hoping for Fable! Soft spot for that series and it's been too long.
I believe they already teased it. I feel like a Fable announcement is a lock.
Thanks for this! Was thinking of making a thread for this. So excited!!!
You're welcome! I was a bit surprised there was no thread yet at Beehaw.
CITIES SKYLINES 2
Games so far looking good! Just funny that with 95% of the games, it ends with saying play day one on game pass
Fable looked like it had the right atmosphere.
Jussant(sp?) Looked cool as hell
Definitely looks interesting. Want to see more.
Rumors have it that Avowed will show up in the Xbox conference. I'm really excited to finally see some gameplay for it after a looong time of radio silence.
I’m with you. After being teased that long ago, my body is ready!
Thanks! I’m so excited for the Starfield portion!
This is where MS has a chance to really make a splash and show what all of the developers they have been acquiring are working on. I hope it's successful, my Xbox has turned into a Rock Band 4 machine.
I used to be optimistic for Microsoft since Phil Spencer got the Game Pass ball rolling, but I'm doubtful we'll see a lot of concrete games. Especially with his recent speech that "even with games we won't sell more Xboxes than PlayStations" (not that I care about the "console war", but that's definitely not a confident man speaking). If it's a splash, it would've been bigger if the CMA and the FTC didn't start stopping Microsoft from acquiring Activision-Blizzard-King.
I'm still rooting for them, though! Sony got some banger games, Nintendo's "set for the year" with TOTK and their other smaller games, now it's Xbox' turn to swing.
Edit: My biggest hope currently is them finally rolling out Game Pass Friends and Family globally. That's my "day one" purchase with 4 friends for sure. Would love to stream those games to my Deck.
“even with games we won’t sell more Xboxes than PlayStations” (not that I care about the “console war”, but that’s definitely not a confident man speaking)
I don't think that speaks to confidence in general, I think it speaks to accepting the reality of where they are with regards to hardware sales.
I am hoping this will be a good showcase for them. Regardless, I appreciate that they are allegedly taking the "no CGI trailers" approach.
I think it speaks to accepting the reality of where they are with regards to hardware sales. Agreed, but I wouldn't say the Xbox situation is as hopeless as he paints it out to be if they got XGS games to show for it. Especially with Sony's exclusivity deals (which luckily are far less than before, looking at Street Fighter 6 for example). Phil's philosophy of getting games on any platform (despite starting to Xbox/PC lock Bethesda games) definitely shows with third party developers nowadays.
Sony set the bar low this time around, so I think it'll be good. Last showcase with the Hi-Fi Rush shadow drop was a good format for them - quick, content-filled. If they stick with that type of format, I'm a happy guy.
Did we know CS2 was gonna be on gamepass?
Pretty disappointed overall. Couple of the smaller things looked cool. Don't feel like I even had very high hopes, but everything either was uninteresting to me or was cinematics only with no hint of how the game plays.
I was totally surprised by Persona 3: Reload announcement /s
I'm hopeful Ninja Theory maintained, if not upped, the quality with Hellblade II. What an incredible experience the first game was. It was so impactful.
Glad to see there's so many interesting games coming to Game Pass. The Capcom game especially looks cool. Starfield looks great. A little disappointed there weren't any new hype-worthy game announcements though. But overall I'm feeling good about the future of Game Pass. (Even though most stuff they showed isn't coming out until 2024.)
Everwild seems like a realistic thing to hope for that would be exciting. I assume we'll be seeing Forza. Silksong seems like it'd be here if anywhere during this not-E3, but not getting my hopes up for that. Really have zero interest in Starfield, so I hope they don't spend too much of the time focused on that.
Starfield's considered a separate show, being right after the Xbox Games Showcase.
I'm assuming they'll still show it a bit during the xbox showcase and then show more in depth in the thing after, but maybe not.
I'm really looked forward to Hellbade II, even though I never finished the original one (was NOT a fan of the combat bits, it felt like someone pausing a movie and refusing to unpause it until I did button mashing sequence). The atmosphere/vibes of the walking parts are so cool though.
There’s Avowed. Dang next year
@TopHat Hello all! Glad you enjoyed the show (well...some of you did!)
This is a much better Xbox event! They have in game or in engine footage to show for a lot of games being shown. No release dates for a lot of them is a bummer but there’s an improvement. Phantom liberty looked rad! I don’t have a good gaming laptop, wish had a pc for starfield
