@ilyn Same here, the only trailers that caught my eye were Tides of Annihilation (it was already on my radar) and Zoopunk. I'd also rate it an E but just because those two titles were pleasant surprises, else it would've been an F to me, as I didn't care about anything else,
@FraserG I thought critics were exaggarating when they called it one of the best ending sequences ever but after having finished it twice with my buddy I wholeheartedly agree, everybody should experience that ending for themselves, it's bonkers!
So many good games released this year but my frontrunner is still Clair Obscur and if I hadn't played it Split Fiction would take its spot but I hope Sandfall win, they deserve it.
@BossBE I can only see two valid reasons: most affordable current-gen console (albeit with lots of visual compromises) and being primarily a GP machine.

Re: Digital Foundry 'Astounded' By Silent Hill F Ahead Of Its September Xbox Launch
@OldGamer999 Split Fiction is another flawless UE5 game. 60fps on all consoles, no stuttering, and beautiful visuals. Great devs can make UE5 shine.

Re: According To Sales Estimates, Final Fantasy 16 Had A Rough First Week On Xbox
MS conditioned Xbox players to rent games on GP instead of buying them. That's probably one of the main reasons.
