Imagine if they did a Sony and opened with GTAV. Lolz

 

Truly top level trolling would be to announce that the 360 version of GTA5 will be backwards compatible on day one with 4K/HDR patch. Peter Moore would've done it.

Pinned! Just grabbed a beer and I'm settling down for the show. I'd love something completely unexpected to be announced, like a sequel to a beloved franchise from the 360 / OG Xbox gen. My favourite console games have been Vanquish, Psi-Ops, God Hand & Titanfall 2. Give me a show packed with stuff like that and I'd genuinely consider jumping to the ship of X!

 

A sequel to Psi-Ops would be my no. 1 wish. 

[moosegrinder]

I genuinely don't know what to expect. It's been a long time since I've watched one of these and walked away impressed so maybe this time, eh?

[teddymeow]

Is it only streaming at 1080P?

[moosegrinder]

Just read the game awards description:

 

"Watch complete coverage of Xbox Games Showcase this Thursday, with a pre/post show hosted by Geoff Keighley (The Game Awards) with YouTube Gaming Creators and other special guests. Creators appearing include Ninja, JackSepticEye, MatPat, LaurenZSide, J.D. Witherspoon, Lamarr Wilson and more."

 

I'm out*. I don't give a fuck what corpo-speak they're paid to shovel.

 

 

 

 

*maybe.

I'm always heartened by how much love that game still gets, all these years later. Even if it's not called Psi-Ops, more games where you get to use telekinesis to throw people around is always a good thing.

Geoff Keighley gives me the creeps.

[RubberJohnny]

Hey remember when people used to be excited for the potential of new technology, rather than wanting a new console generation purely for creatively hidebound recreations of {game I played in 2001}, Metacritic 68?

This preshow is stuttery as fuck.

Who are these idiots?

filler. 

[teddymeow]

Ooh, great! Lots of pre-meers due in the next hour.

[merrychan]

Sweet christ it's just pundits like the footy but without any info

[Quest]

Kill Jester.

[Ry]

No one in this pre show panel has the balls to say 

 

"I want to see single player story driven games on par with Sony's efforts"

I'm watching the Maximilian reactions for this first bit and he just kept saying 'whoooo?!' 

 

Now called Geoff 'the Dorito Pope'. 

 

Low hanging fruit but more entertaining than the polite stilted chat so far. 

 

[Transient Curse]

This is proper rubbish.  I don’t know what I was expecting but it wasn't this.  I literally could not give a shit about what any of these people think about the things I don't know either. 

[Benny]

"What are you looking forward to with the new Xbox?"

 

"Better OS"

 

Truly setting your sights high.

[Calashnikov]

I was gonna try and not get smashed for once while watching one of these things, since 5pm on a Thursday just isn’t quite right, is it? But these cunts have driven me to drink. I’m away for a carry out.

Austin Evans reminds me of Nicholas Holt.

"I'm more pc and playstation" glad they booked her. The insights just keep coming.

Late start for me.

I swear she said "exclushits".

 

That's a new phrase for first party games that turn out to be turkeys.

[Quest]

DQ XI on Game Pass is pretty nice.

[Isaac]

Dragon Quest XI on game pass is a fucking great get.

 

Probably the best JRPG of the last 5 years.

[Mortis]

Nice DQX1 coming to gamepass - save me buying on Switch

[moosegrinder]

Dragon Quest XI on game pass? Aye, I'll take that.

[layten]

I see they are using a potato to encode and stream this. Thank god the main show will be on Twitch.
