Starfield is a good game but it can certainly use more features and content. I look forward to Shattered Space and that rover they're adding, whenever that is added!

I started Cocoon today and I'm about halfway through. It's a beautiful game with a great ethereal soundtrack and some fun brain teasers! I'm not generally into puzzle games, but I like this one.

I would have preferred a third person game, but I will eat this game up. I can't wait to play it!

We've waited a while for this one. Looks pretty good!

Oh my goodness, maybe they were trolling? At the end she says that no one will stand in her way, then they are in the forest and someone literally stands in their way. Seems like that's YOU.

@Nic-Noc20th-C Can't forget Brute Force 2 and an Azurik prequel!

It seems to be right in the middle in terms of open world game length and I'm all for it. I think this one is going to delight fans.

Quite the comment section!

I think the game looks very good. There's still more I want to see, including the character creator and exploration. Though it's not an open world game, which is fine by me.

That Ubisoft Forward was great! I'm definitely looking forward to most of what they showed.

The game looks fantastic! I can't wait to play it on my Series X!

I really hope it's true that Fable will be at the showcase. I want to see a few minutes of gameplay. Yeah, we know what the game looks like, and it looks great. I just want to see it in action proper.

Wow! So glad to see Yooka Laylee get the remaster treatment. There were things about that game that people didn't like and this is a chance at fixing at least some of that.

I buy a lot of "indie" and smaller games, but I hope these unknowns are AAAs. That's usually most exciting to me.

As long as I can play the game alone, I'm fine with any online features. I hope it is what I think it is and it's basically Viva Pinata with exploration lol.

My wildcard is KOTOR Remake getting some kind of trailer at the showcase. I'm being a bit "out there" on purpose!

And thank you for sharing a photo of Banjo Nuts & Bolts, one of my favorite games! I know we're not getting a sequel to that, but this did bring back nice memories. I'd be very happy with a platformer. Just get the fur shading right, devs! After Rare's work, I'm spoiled with the fur effects.

I'd love to see KOTOR Remake re-emerge at the Xbox showcase. I have no reason to believe that it will, but it sure would be cool! And of course things like Banjo, Fable, and hopefully a further-improved Avowed!

The graphics aren't great (at least in this build) but if the gameplay is similar to TDU1 and 2 then I think it could really do well.

I can't wait! What a year for games!

I've been looking forward to this game for a long time. I believe it's an online game, which some people aren't happy about, but I'm willing to give it a go!

I really hope they're working to fix the combat system because it looked quite weak in the Developer Direct footage. The graphics have improved a lot, though, and those could have gotten better with dev time.

It's unfortunate that almost none of these are on Game Pass yet. Maybe they'll be added after showcase. I may wait for that reason.

I'd love to see Everwild re-emerge. That, Perfect Dark and a Banjo Kazooie teaser!

I think this is going to be groundbreaking in terms of tech. And hopefully the gameplay is super varied and polished. I'm sure it will be! I can't wait!

I knew they could add vehicles! I'm so glad it's finally coming because it's one of my criticisms of the game, these long treks and lack of vehicles. Now I don't know whether to wait for that and the Shattered Space DLC or jump in with the May 15th update!

Looking forward to getting it in the near future!

Haha! I'm so glad I waited. I figured it was coming soon so I passed on a recent sale.

This is encouraging. I looked at some other reviews and most were also positive. Something to pick up on a sale as I do enjoy tennis games.

I can't wait! Looks very promising.

Top Spin was a top-tier tennis sim back on the OG Xbox. I know it had a few sequels, but it's been many years, so it's nice to see the name return. Let's hope it can live up.

Massive and their Snowdrop engine give me a measure of confidence. I think many will dismiss it out of hand but it will end up being a solid game.

LEGO 2K Drive. I waited for a discount but I will check it out on Game Pass!

It's common for games to get improvements during the porting process because they've been able to iterate on their tech. In the case of Ghostwire: Tokyo, it's the reverse. Not sure why that was.

It strikes me as arbitrary and everyone will have to draw a line in the sand as to what's comfortable for them. For me, whether it's a multiplayer or single player game, it comes down to whether a given item is worth the price they're asking. I rarely do microtransactions in single player games, and when I do, the item is usually no more than a couple of dollars.

Also, people talk about "slippery slope" but this has been going on for over a decade. AC: Black Flag had microtransactions. You could buy these "time savers" that would help you along faster.

@Kraven I just got a Playstation 5 slim and my first purchase is going to be Rise of the Ronin!

A well-crafted demo can do a lot for a game.

I hope Outcast 2 is as good as it looks!

Can we get another Burger King collab already? Seriously, where's the sequel to Pocketbike Racer? That would make the show!

I always thought this game would turn out well. Massive Entertainment + Snowdrop engine? Sign me up.

We'll see how it turns out, but from what we've been shown, I'm thinking it's gonna be good. You know, if you're a fan of Avatar and the direction that this game is going in.

I'm seeing people upset that Starfield only got one nomination and was snubbed for GOTY. I would have liked to have seen it on the list but, honestly, there was a lot of competition this year. I guess people will argue over RE4 being on there as it's a remake, but I saw it coming as the reviews were quite good - better than Starfield's overall.

I'm glad I held out for it to come to EA Play! I just got the free trial for a dollar. I had initially tried (through the 10 hour free trial) Wild Hearts on PC, but the performance was so dreadful that I had to give up on it!

So nice to see this finally fixed!

It's a new day in Xbox world!

The game stands at 77 on Metacritic. Not bad at all. I was going to check it out anyway, though. Looks good.

Aye. Richard Leadbetter of Digital Foundry said a long time ago that he was concerned about the lack of memory in the Series S. It can be a challenge for developers, but the Series S does remain a great value for consumers.

It's nice to see this deal coming to a resolution. It's been a long road.

I feel like trying this game again once the Safer Seas update drops. Very good news!

These are the decoy plans. The real plans involve many more controllers.

Fallout 3 and Oblivion have very dated graphics and combat. It'd be a lot of work to get those ones right. I hope they go big with those projects.

@Kaloudz I hear ya haha. Mine is still connected to the TV in the living room but it was rendered useless with the purchase of my Series X.

It's a well-curated list of games.

I thought it would be good. Looks promising!
