C, it is what it is for this kind of show it's kinda picking up the scraps from all the other events.

Exodus showcase is worth watching
True, but every now and then they have those years, like last year's show, where they actually managed to grab way better trailers than Geoff's big show.

That's why I think it's worth tuning in to.
 
I am thinking of rating it a B as it introduced me to games I would not have bothered to look up otherwise.

As a fan of the franchise seeing Halloween footage blew my mind.


I am interested in seeing and playing demos of Fading Echo, Sinking City 2, Condura, and Hellraiser.





P.S. I feel sad for Animo developers as Nintendo is bound to send them a wave of anti-competetive lawsuits.

It was a rapid fire show with a lot of games featured. by Furture Game Show standards. This is about a C+

Also I am adding screenshots for games that interested me in one way or another. Sometimes bad, other times good.

I've only watched the main show but there was a ton for me to get excited about:

-The Pines (Reveal with gameplay) - Super weird in a good way.
Ace Combat 8 (Gameplay deep dive) - Love the series so this is a no brainer even if a battle pass is dumb.
Dear Van Gogh (Reveal with gameplay) - I know it's a different company, but Sword of the Sea has left a bad taste in my mouth. I do love all of TGC's titles though.
Prison of Husks (New gameplay shown) - Will try the Steam demo
AGX GP (Reveal with gameplay) - Looks a little slow but I'd like to try it.
Vampire Survivors Legacy of the Blood Moon Expansion (Reveal with gameplay) - As much as I hate myself for playing this game, I'll will play this DLC
1666 Amsterdam (Deep Dive) - The setting is great, but the prologue has impressively turned me off of the project and it didn't even demonstrate the meat of the gameplay loop.
 
W WhamBamThankYouMaam appreciate you embedding all those trailers

It wasn't part of the show, but this popped up in my feed and I want to share it because the gameplay is fresh and innovative, I haven't seen something like this before (maybe there has been, but I don't recall)



You're kicking a ball down a street. That's it. Looks phenomenal.

This game looks waayyy better than it's first reveal. They really took the time to polish it and make it look cool and fun.

I'm glad not many people remember the first iteration of this game, it literally looked like it was revealed far too soon a few years ago.
