They've already said there will be no first party games at this tonight.
Like the last 2-3 years, I won't be bothering to get up for MS. I expect nothing. Anything to do with Cyberpunk would be a nice surprise.

[Twiztid Elf]

Surprising lack of gameplay in their gameplay reveal.
- Scarlet Nexus looked excellent. I'm in on that.
- Dirt 5 looked good.
- Scorn looked interesting due to the theme, but was just teaser. Don't know what it is.

[Ambrose Burnside]

I like some of the headlines I'm seeing. Like "The best bits from the Assassin's Creed Valhalla no-gameplay gameplay trailer" and "You May Need to Lower Your Expectations For Next-Gen Graphics".

I watched the new Bloodlines 2 trailer. It looks cool, but not particularly "next gen". Like I didn't see anything that couldn't be done on current-gen hardware.

[Mavy]

Yeah that's what I was thinking. They really need to start making with the next gen justification.

At the moment all I'm thinking we're gonna get is 60fps versions current gen games.

[Froggy]

Yakuza 7 finally some more info and confirmed it's actually coming.

[Twiztid Elf]

Next announcement is a single game reveal. 2am Wednesday.

[Twiztid Elf]

Tony Hawk 1 and 2 remaster for current gen. Meh. Love the Dead Kennedys music on the trailer though.

[Twiztid Elf]

Next thing is tomorrow at 1am.

[Rorschach]

Tony Hawk 2 Remake, day one. Loved that game on Dreamcast back in the day.

Tony Hawk 1 and 2 remaster for current gen. Meh. Love the Dead Kennedys music on the trailer though.

Not meh. THPS 1 was the best in the franchise imo, the only thing the second game had over the first was the ability to transition from place to place on 2 wheels (forget what it's called). Definitely loved the locations of the first.

And DK was in the original soundtrack so let's hope the games don't have licensing issues for all the original tracks.

[Twiztid Elf]

Sorry. Only just catching up today.
I'm sure it's already being covered int he PS5 thread. Just watching it now for myself....
Content starts at 25m-ish.

[Twiztid Elf]

Finally some good news.
18m Ghost of Tsushima feature tomorrow morning at 6am.

[Twiztid Elf]

Fuck yeah.

[Twiztid Elf]

New Paper Mario. Same day as Ghosts of Tsushima. 17 July.

[Mavy]

Was wondering what sort of game Ghost of Tsushima was. Watching that video it's an Assassins Creed clone even down to the stealth detection arcs.

I wonder if this is why there were so many rumours of the next AC game being set in Japan/China. Where those that saw this mistook it for Assassins Creed.

Looks ok though.

[Candy Arse]

New Paper Mario. Same day as Ghosts of Tsushima. 17 July.

Sold.

I sunk an ungodly amount of hours into Paper Mario on GAMECUBE NINTENDO. Red hot for this.

[flipswitch]

Watched the Ghost of Tsushima play through and I thought it was nothing special and not much different than the Assassin Creed games. Some things like the enemy detection icon looks identical. Maybe the story is worth playing through, the gameplay done nothing for me. In a nutshell it’s AC in Japan. Animation isn’t that great for a game that has been years in development. I will keep an eye on it but as it is, bit disappointed.

Forgot to mention the enemy A.I is super dumb.

[t0mby]

Forgot to mention the enemy A.I is super dumb.

How dumb?

[flipswitch]

Looks like he forgot his glasses!

[Twiztid Elf]

How the fuck did I miss this? E3 2020 is saved.
