Crikey, when you look at the list there, there are some seemingly good corkers. I gave it a 3/10 but I will have to revise it up because of

*As Dusk Falls
*A Plague Tale: Requiem
*Lightyear Frontier
*Scorn
*Diablo IV
*Starfield
*The Last Case of Benedict Fox
*Cocoon

So a 7/10 would be more befitting for tonight's event, I think.

There's still more to come, @Mr Carrot on Tuesday. But it will probably be more of the same stuff like today.

Oh jolly good then! Why do they split the event at all? I noticed this last year?

I thought they'd go live with senua 2 or plague tale 2... or maybe just forza. Just something to spin the old series x up. I watched it on my series x for that reason! Last years it erupted into a series of download requests during the conference
 
Starfield is definitely a wait until the complete edition is out for me. If I resub to GP in 2024 I think that will suit me well.

I don't get what you was expecting?

The point of the presentation was to show games and games which are going to be released in the next 12 months. Nothing else.

They made that perfectly clear leading upto the presentation.

So what did they do little previews for elder scrolls and fable etc normally?

The whole thing was utterly bizarre. To use an example I have netflix. They regularly tease their tentpole brands regardless of content. The trailers for stranger things s4 started a year ago.

It's a subscription service its about crafting the relationship between the member and the platform. I've got no idea why they've not thrown some red meat to the audience.

Are you just trolling now as it has already been explained this was a show for releases in the next 12m? What on earth are you on about 'it's a subscription service' was it called the Gamepass only show?

I'm not trolling in any way.

My experience is in large corporate and macro public policy delivery. I'm saying this was bizarre.

The entire customer retainment for their multi billion dollar subscription biz was a future facing gameplay trailer for a new ip. That barely looked like it could barely run on high end PC let alone XBox

No need to be rude.

Lots of people seem to be expecting a Marcus Fenix collection in the vein of the master chief collection. I hope that’s wrong, it’s a game set no one needs and won’t work.

? Was very light on the ground for the xbox Gamer other than Starfield?

Light on the ground for the Xbox gamer? Every game mentioned is on the Xbox, so I don't understand how it could be light on the ground. Did you think this was an E3 expo video or something? It was purely for Microsoft Xbox and Bethesda to show what's going to be available to play within the next 12 months. The rest will be shown in a few days time.

Starfield looks absolutely stunning and immense. Bethesda seem to be achieving what the Star Citizen developers vision was, but in a shorter space of time and without taking everyone's money every few years with nothing to show for it.

Halo Pelican was an instant download for me in Flight Simulator.

Oh, and I've never wanted to get back into motorsport racing more than now when I've seen the new Forza Motorsport. That looks amazing.
 
Starfield looks good !!! 1000 planets? I hope they are well designed and plenty of easter eggs in them and not mostly empty.

I am loving the design your own spaceship idea, although i must admit I am not a fan of the character design and art style by Bethesda, this doesn't look as good as i expect.
