Thread: Xbox Games Showcase 2024 / Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct June 9th: 10a PT/1p ET/6p BST/7p CEST
This show was alright. Good selection of games. Nothing particularly impressive or impressively bad.
 
Avowed has looked like garbage since the gameplay reveal.

Avowed is so far from what anyone who would have been interested in an Elder Scrolls like game by Obsidian. Especially that original screenshot or teaser they showed where the lighting and coloring wasn't anywhere near as colorful and vapid. Bet certain people on the team wanted it to be "lighter."

Haven't played COD in around a decade now but I have to say, that campaign looks great so far. If that's any indication for the new zombies I may actually end up picking this one up.

E-Day looks great. Please don't fuck it up like you have 4 and 5

Idk man, won't be surprised if there's some awful female civilian sidekick tagging along to "ground" the story.

More bitches talking about Call of Duty.

Why tf is a brand manager talking here anyway, like she has fuck all to do with the production of the game.

Solid showing in terms of titles. GJ Xbox.

Wasn't a complete waste of time for once.
 
People keep mentioning Sony's showing being garbage, but wasn't their last thing just a State of Play? Don't think they've done their big showcase for the year.

Anyway highlights for me

Shattered Space DLC (finally)
Perfect Dark
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater
Fable...I'm down for more, but it better have character customisation because Ugly Mug can fuck right off
Indiana Jones and the Great Machine....looked pretty good tbh. Hopefully Indy isn't cucked by the female companion

Do they have enough to show? I think that's their problem right now.

I'd imagine the biggest thing Sony will likely show in another GTA VI Trailer, a tease on whatever ND are up to and maybe an announcement/reveal of the GoT sequel.

They definitely pivoted from their original concept for nu-Fables, pretty sure it was meant be actually about fables and folktales, now its back to Albion but they kept the atrocious gorilla girl protag. I bet Xbox told them to pivot but DEI and devs haggled to keep their ugly woman.

Perfect Dark looked devoid of all personality imo. I just didnt see anything to really make it stand out like the original did.

I played the shit out of the original and especially PD0 and I loved the secondary objectives and modes Of fire with the weapons. The city looked really good to me; I just hope they can make it a worthy successor to the previous games.
