I hated what they did to FF7 remake, basically. To a point where I really want to look forward to continuing to play it, but I don't even know if I'm going to. It's depressing.

To be clear, if they'd actually just done it as a remake without ####ing with it, and they'd wanted to charge $500 for just the game I'd probably have paid it. But now every time I'm reminded that it even exists I'm just... sad.

Been playing Ori and the Will of the Wisps. What a fun game. I played the first one but never really got into it. But this one....wow. One of the best platformers I've ever played and easily #1 on Xbox.

Everything from the graphics to the level design and controls are amazing. And the music...magical. One of the best videogame sound tracks I've heard. I can see why this game was on so many best game lists last year.

Once I beat this one I might have to play the 1st one again and stick with it.

I know there are lots of Switch users on here, good news you're getting a port of Kingdom Come Deliverance

Not the announcement for a sequel like I was hoping but still, good for Switch people. One of my fav games of the last few years

I'm not normally a fan of rogue-like games but the Ori games are great and I agree Will of the Wisps is the better one. I tried to get into Hollow Knight a couple of times, because it seems to be rated the best rogue-like by most people, but it didn't vibe with me. For me the Ori games are near perfect.

So like 2024 or 2025 before it's fixed and worth playing? We are talking Bethesda after all.

Lol there was a lot of people REAL confident Bethesda’s big games would continue to come to PlayStation.

A real solid show for Microsoft at E3, sucks that a lot of it is not coming until next year. And I would’ve liked to see more on Fable but I’m guessing that’s really far away.

not an xbox guy, but I thought Stalker and Forza looked very good.

still don't know enough about Starfield to say one way or another at this point, but i am sure if you like Fallout 3 and 4, you'd like Starfield.

No one should like Fallout 3 and 4.

They will, once they have been out for a while for XBox. There is way too much money to be made not to eventually put out those titles for other platforms.

Maybe Xbox will make it contingent on Sony allowing an Xbox Cloud Streaming app in the PSN Store.

This is the only way Bethesda's new games will come to PlayStation.

I feel the opposite. I'm glad they went their current direction instead of just a straight up remake. Playing the original game again a couple years ago, the story feels a bit dated now. I'd much rather expect the unexpected now rather than already knowing what will happen.

Then just make a new game. Don't #### this one up. And I have no doubt it's going to continue to suck, by the way... The changes to the first one were not for the better.

And, of course, it's Nomura.
