The Video Game Thread

[HungryLion]

I have Diablo 4 on Xbox series X. It looks
And runs perfect on the series X. It’s been cool because i have friends who have it on PC and being able to play together is awesome.

The biggest issue for me is. I’m also
Still playing tears of the kingdom. And I am
Torn constantly on which one to pop in as my video game time is limited with 2 young kids.

I wish these games came out like 6 months apart from each other lol.

I skipped through the 2 hour long Xbox Games Showcase, and wow, there are some great looking games coming down the pipeline. Star Wars Outlaws (Reality shared above), Flight Simulator 2024, Starfield, Forza Motorsports.....all look great.

The trailer for South of Midnight intrigued me the most. Game looks gorgeous and interesting.

Can't wait for Starfield!

Woof the Final Fantasy XVI demo is absolutely fire. Tears of The Kingdom might be in trouble for GOTY, and of course there's Starfield lurking. Diablo IV is right there as well.

Yeah I’ve sunk in over 100 hours into Diablo 4 in the short time it’s been out. Maybe went a little too hardcore and final fantasy 16 will be a nice break.

Just an FYI for any of you 6v6 mulitplayer fans, the Xdefiant free beta is open to everybody today. You can play it for the next 3 days.

It's definitely worth a spin. There are some good and some bad with it, but overall, my jury is still out on it. I am having fun in the matches though, so that should count for something.

I found myself hooked on Ratchet & Clank yesterday. What a fun game. I never played it back in the day when it was on PS4. It was free on PSN a month or two ago. In fact, Ratchet & Clank was the kind of game I didn't think I would like, until I gave Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart a chance when I got my PS5, and now I'm a huge fan of the game/series.

The GOTY field this year is going to be insane. Tears of the Kingdom is probably a lock, but the field will be very strong.

Hogwarts Legacy is a nomination lock in any year

Jedi Survivor could win GOTY alot of years

Diablo 4

FF16

And then the beast that is Starfield coming out in September

Im probably forgetting some too

Starfield blowing past expections is probably the only Zelda loses. However Bethesda releases are notoriously buggy day 1, so that could hurt its chances
